NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
S' all good. I manage without quinoa. I eat chia instead. Currently sipping on a blueberry green apple kale smoothie, I put in a spoonful of chia and coconut oil for energy boosts, and today I tossed some grass fed protein powder in the mix. Gotta feed dem muscles. I'd post a pic but its not very pretty and it lacks capsaicin.
Uh oh.
What is "grass fed protein powder"?
Tell me thats not animal based.
Sounds like scientific 'speriments n' sheeit.
But stuff that hippy scientists came up with.
I'm on your team.
Just tryin' to understand.

Its whey protein, yes derived from cows, but organic grass fed sources so you're missing the antibiotics and steroids, and they aren't processed like body builder protein powders. The key is finding a raw or cold pressed protein powder to get the health benefits from it. I pretty much started using it not because I needed protein for muscles but really I read an article on glutathione, an antioxidant that has cancer fighting properties as well as a boat load of other immune system boosting goodies. Long story short the grass fed whey protein powder it one of the top ways to maximize your glutathione levels because of the amino acids in the powder. I try to consume a bit every other day at least.texas blues said:

Speaking of chia, I just started using it in smoothies and baking. Its nutritional breakdown is pretty cool (12 grams of chia has 3 grams protein, 3 grams fat, and 5 grams fiber), and I like the way it gels up and has a slight sweetness and nuttiness when it hydrates.
Speaking of the thread, I love a good spicy marinara.
JayT said:So let me get this right, its ok to eat meat of it is in powdered form? Hippie logic...
I believe that the premise of this thread was not to be vegan, just to talk about meatless spicy dishes. The above protein powder was indeed meatless, as meat is generally thought of as animal muscle tissue. I don't know of anyone who seriously calls "milk" meat. Animal product, yes.
If this is all just teasing with a wink and a nod, then carry on. If there is anybody seriously trying to argue about validity of posts . . . they need to step off.
