DF protein powder recommendation?

Looking for something we can add to spinach/fruit/water smoothies, so nothing with a strong taste or texture. Needs to be dairy free and reasonably priced. Just looking to add protein to fill us up more, not for body building, meal replacement, or anything else extreme.

I use Pb fit. It’s a fairly whole food protein powder since it’s just peanuts with most of the fat removed. I don’t know if the taste is too strong for you- I like the taste.

We use grassfed collagen.

I think I have that in the cabinet. Never thought of putting it in our smoothies. Doesn't it give them a peanut taste?

Yes, but I think it’s yummy.

I like pea protein powder but it can be gritty.

I mostly use grass-fed collagen peptides. I buy Zen Principle from Amazon.

The Naked brand is also good. They have a wide variety of protein powders with minimal ingredients/processing.

Chia seeds aren't a protein powder but they have omega 3 and fiber and can make a smoothie much more filling. They are not noticeable after being blended.

I use a pea protein, too.
