Our Favorite Recipes To Satisfy Your (Semi) Sweet Tooth

By Tone It Up on

If you’re looking for a delicious treat that’s just a lil’ less sweet, we got you! We created our Unsweetened Vanilla and Chocolate Protein Powders with the same creamy, rich taste as the originals, but a little less sweetness so you can sweeten your creations to your liking. They go perfectly in recipes like smoothies, parfaits, and chia seed pudding paired with natural sweeteners like fresh fruit and honey. 

And of course, like all our protein powders, they are plant-based, gluten-free, dairy-free, non-GMO, whey-free, and sugar alcohol-free. 

Here are two of our favorite recipes that will hit that perfect (not too) sweet spot!
