This delicious vegan chocolate protein smoothie recipe rocks vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and Organifi protein powder.


As a vegan athlete for over 40 years, I’m always on the lookout for high-quality protein. In fact getting enough healthy protein in my diet is a top priority!

So it’s pretty handy that I happened to run a little food biz years back with tons of nutritious protein smoothies, which also rocked slews of organic protein powders we rocked by the scoop.

Because along with fruits, veggies, legumes, salads, and the scores of delicious entrees we eat, powerhouse protein smoothies have always been a thing.

And one of my favorites is chocolate—I know I’m not alone—with Organifi complete protein powder and delicious raw cacao. 🤎 😋

Chocolate Smoothie Tips

  1. Use frozen banana slices for extra creaminess and a natural sweetener. Slice and freeze ripe bananas ahead of time to avoid a watery smoothie.
  2. Choose a rich plant milk like oat or coconut for a creamier base. Almond or soy milk work great if you want a lighter option with added protein.
  3. Scoop in quality vegan ice cream to replace some or all of the ice. This adds creaminess and depth of chocolate flavor without watering it down.
  4. Add vanilla extract (or vanilla bean) to round out the sweetness and deepen the flavor.
  5. Use raw organic cacao powder instead of cocoa powder if possible—it gives a richer chocolate flavor with more antioxidants.
  6. Go easy on the stevia—a tiny bit goes a long way. Start with a small amount and blend, taste, adjust.
  7. Add a swirl of organic chocolate syrup on the inside of your glass before pouring in the smoothie—it makes it look fancy and adds a little extra indulgence.
  8. Use a high-speed blender to get that silky, ultra-smooth texture—especially when using frozen fruit and ice cream.

Toppings

  1. Boost it with a pinch of pink salt to bring out the chocolate flavor and balance sweetness.
  2. Optional mix-ins for texture and nutrition: Add a tablespoon of chia seeds, flax seeds, or hemp hearts. They won’t change the flavor much, but they add fiber, omegas, and protein.
  3. Don’t over-blend after the smoothie becomes silky—this can introduce too much air and thin it out.
  4. Top it off with a generous cloud of vegan whipped topping (like coconut whipped cream), chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, etc.), and a final drizzle of organic chocolate syrup.
  5. Want a mocha version? Add a shot of espresso or 1 tsp of instant coffee for a delicious energy boost.
  6. Chill your glass in the freezer before serving. It keeps your smoothie colder longer and adds a nice touch.

Using a handheld immersion blender to make smoothies offers several advantages over traditional brands. You can blend ingredients directly in your bowl or cup, eliminating the need for extra dishes and conserving water.

And unlike a countertop, where ingredients get stuck under the blades, an immersion tool ensures smooth blending without the hassle of scraping out every last bit with a spatula.

They’re easier to clean, too—just rinse the blending shaft!

Another reason why plant-based protein rocks is fiber. One report notes that “high fiber intake appears to reduce the risk of cancers of the colon and breast, diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and premature death in general.”

Unlike processed cocoa, organic cacao retains more nutrients, including iron, magnesium, calcium, flavonoids, and the mood-boosting compounds theobromine and phenylethylamine.
