VSG AJH 499 Posted September 13, 2013 I've attached an image if a couple of really yummy vegan Protein powders I have and use. the Amazing Meal brand also has a vanilla Chai flavor, but it was so good I drank it all. . I don't have a dairy allergy, but I chose these because some of the ingredients in typical whey Protein Drinks were concerning to me, and the organic and/or grass-fed brands were super pricey. When I told my NUT about them, she said they whey protein is more complete and necessary for someone coming right out of surgery, but I'm actually searching the boards now to see if that's been the consensus, or if there's some kind of additional research I can take to her. Still, I think these would be good to use down the line as a snack, at least. In your case, the majority of your protein is coming from real food, so supplementing with a vegan protein seems reasonable. The Sunwarrior protein has 16g/scoop, and the Amazing Meal has 10g/packet.
