A Nutritious Vegan Protein Snack
Salted caramel is delicious but often loaded with sugar. Here’s a caramel vegan protein version with no added sugar, soy and egg free. It only takes 20 minutes to create (less time than it takes to buy a commercial version of this). The cashews, almonds and vegan protein will stave off hunger pangs and keep you feeling satisfied for longer. The coconut oil is high in MCT which potentially helps with better brain and memory as well as increased endurance. Cocoa may reduce high blood pressure, lower risk of heart attack and stroke and improve mood. Combined with caramel vegan protein you have a potentially mood-lifting and energy-enhancing snack.
