This was super delicious! I was wondering if I can substitute vegan protein for any other non protein powder source, like oats?

  Hi Linda – thank you! Great question on the protein powder. If you do substitute it with oats (1/4 cup should be great, I add that to my smoothies often!) also make sure to add something else for a little sweetness – perhaps 1-2 dates or 1 teaspoon of agave nectar/maple syrup. That way, you get some of the sweetness from the protein powder along with the protein + fiber of the oats! If you try it, let me know how it goes and I’ll add a note in the recipe card 🙂
