But one healthy and cute idea for the whole family is to create a nutritious, high-protein “dirt” cup! Keep reading to discover the perfect Earth Day recipe! 

Plant Your Day

Before we jump into the recipe, we simply must sing the praises of our Plant Your Day protein powder. You can use any protein powder of choice for this recipe, but our formula is designed to benefit in myriad ways. Made with organic pumpkin and pea protein, the plant-based and vegan powder is ideal for gut health and balanced skin. 

It boasts 110 calories, 17 grams of protein, only 1 gram of sugar, and 2 grams of fat per serving. Plus, it’s pH balancing and alkalizing. 

Oh, and don’t forget the delicious chocolate flavor, which brings us back to our recipe! 

 

We hope this healthy Earth Day recipe helps you to acknowledge April 22ndin style. In the spirit of the observance, don’t forget to reuse or recycle any relevant packaging!
