[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been making kale and/or spinach, banana, cucumber, celery and greek yogurt, but it's not filling and i'm hungry in an hour. i don't care for nut butters in smoothies. what can i add to make them more filling?

some of the protein powders scare me and i want to avoid soy.[/quote]

What is scary to you?[/b] I use Plant Fusion to avoid soy & dairy, so check that one out. As for filling, a veggie smoothie just isn't going to fill you up for long. It's liquid and full of things your body digests quickly. It's kind of the point. A protein smoothie is much better at this. A combination of almond milk, bananas, oats & a scoop of protein powder is pretty damn good. Even better with peanut butter but you said you didn't care for them in your smoothies.[/quote]

I'm sure it's unfounded. I guess I just wonder what's really in them and how they're processed.

You should be concerned. Most are full of unrecognizable junk. Here is what I use for protein after doing a lot of research:

Interesting -- but I'm not sure I can justify the cost.

To the PP who posted Plant Fusion - that doesn't look creepy at all. Thanks.[/quote]
