Green Superfood review! Day 01.

The great folks over at Amazing Grass asked if I'd like to do a review of their stuff, since I like it so much and I get gushy about things I like. OF COURSE I would, don't be crazy!

My package arrived in the mail yesterday and boy was I surprised! I was expecting samples of some of their Green Superfood powders but look what I got instead!

Holy Product, Batman!!

That's a sample of 4 Amazing Meal flavours, 4 different Green Superfood whole bars, a mix and go sippy cup and a huge handful of Green Superfood plant powder drink additives! Way more than I was expecting. Super nice. All of them are vegan with the exception of the yellow wrapped bar, which has whey protein in it- so Johnny will be a guest reviewer! Stay tuned.

So, this morning I thought I'd start at the beginning and have the Original Flavour Amazing Meal powder in my morning green smoothie. A sachet/serving is 90 calories and 10g of protein and 6g of fibre. Now, many powder additives can have a chalky or gritty flavour and really change the taste of your smoothie. 

This is what I had for breakfast: 

1 cup almond milk

1 cup parsley

2 cups spinach

1 cup kale

1 banana

1 lemon

blended with the powder. You couldn't taste anything untoward at all- just pure green delicious goodness! Afterwards I felt great and stayed fuller for longer than I normally do.  I'd definitely recommend this powder for a green smoothie if you're not usually a fan of this sort of thing, but would like to reap the health benefits found in it. 

Here's whats in it:

Today I have gone 'over' on my iron, protein and fibre thanks to this bad boy. I can't wait till tomorrow to try the Chocolate flavour.

I'm not sure if it's related to this, but I've been awfully "regular" today as well. It might just be my body re-adjusting post cleanse, though. I've also been craving high fat foods ALL DAMNED DAY. It's really terrible. I should have a smoothie with a ton of fruit, that'll fix my li'l red wagon.
