Creamy Snickers Tofu Smoothie (37g protein!)
This creamy tofu smoothie tastes like a Snickers bar and packs in the protein - a whopping 37g! - without protein powder, Greek yogurt or banana. It’s a high protein plant-based breakfast with a simple low FODMAP swap for sensitive tummies too
Equipment
- High Speed Blender or a strong bullet blender
Ingredients
- ⅓ package firm tofu drained, see low FODMAP note below!
- 1 cup unsweetened soy milk choose almond milk for low FODMAP
- ¼ cup salted peanuts
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 or 3 Medjool dates or 5 smaller Deglet Noor dates
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a high speed blender. Blend for 30 seconds, starting on medium and up to high. Scrape the little bits off the sides of the blender, blend 30 more seconds on high. Enjoy!
Notes
Low FODMAP note: 1 cup (140g) of firm tofu is low FODMAP, anything more than that starts to get a little high in fructan. My packages locally are 500g, so 1/3 of that is 166g.
So to be truly low FODMAP, during the elimination phase, make sure you use no more than 1 cup!
Also, using salted peanuts as opposed to peanut butter, really makes it taste like a snickers bar but in a pinch, swapping for 2 tbsp peanut butter will work.
