I love fruit and veg smoothies. Not only are they are delicious, they are also an easy way to pack in lots of vitamins, fibre, nuts and seeds into my diet. Before I had my daughter I would blitz up a smoothie on most days. However, said daughter has decided that she is terrified of my Nutribullet (and she can sense it from two rooms away), which means that now I can only make smoothies when she is out of the house (i.e. very rarely!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is why, when I was given the chance to try the new Plantshakes from FOGA this week I jumped at the chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ingredients are all freeze dried and come in powder form. All you need to do is add water (or mylk of your choice) and shake! Ideal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FOGA Flavours<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The flavour options include Raspberry and Banana, Strawberry and Mango, Matcha and Moringa, Blueberry and Apple, Banana and Tumeric, Berries and Cinnamon, Kiwi and Greens, Beetroot and Ginger, Berry and Beetroot Protein, Blackberry and Chia, Strawberry and Banana, Peach and Cayanne, Peanut and Coffee, Carrot Cake Protein and Ginger and Greens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are also Oatshakes, with flavours including Strawberry and Raspberry, Peanut butter and Berries and Blueberry Pie. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vegan and Paleo Friendly<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

All of the shakes are suitable for vegans. They are free from gluten, wheat, corn, lactose, sucrose, dextrose, egg, yeast, animal products, GMO\u2019s, herbicides, pesticides, harmful chemicals, artificial colours, preservatives, artificial sweeteners and added sugar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, they are not suitable for people suffering with peanut allergies as we have products which contain peanuts and prepare them all on the same site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Taste Test<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I was sent four flavours to try and was really impressed by how the smoothies tasted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first I tried \u2013 Peach and Cayenne \u2013 I just shook up with 250ml water and was pleasantly surprised by both the fruity flavour \u2013 definitely a smoothie and not a squash! \u2013 and the texture, which was thicker than I had anticipated given it was just the powder plus water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
