This is what I do, too. Depending on the powder I use, I can get 16-28 grams of protein for 80-160 calories, plus the negligible calories in the coffee itself, which I choose not to count. My typical go-to proffee is SunWarrior pumpkin spice plant-based protein powder, which is the low end (80 cal/16 protein) or My Protein (chocolate or caramel) plant-based whey which is 100 cal for 20g protein. On days I expect I will have more calories to spare, Good Protein has a range of flavors on the higher end of that spectrum, but even when I use Good Protein, my 160-ish calorie protein coffee is nowhere near the calories in a smoothie that also has milk, banana, yogurt, other fruit, etc.

Also, you might want to check out My Protein’s Whey Forward line, which is vegan precision-fermented whey protein. They’re super sweet which I don’t love but they do blend really well because it’s a finer powder than plant protein powders.

I bought about a years worth of it when it was on deep discount and absolutely hate every flavor. It’s very synthetic tasting and I kept finding plastic bits in the peppermint one. I force myself to have them sometimes but absolutely hate it. Now the two MyProtein vegan powder I’ve tried is fine tasting, the vanilla chia and banana at least, so I was suprised how much I hate Whey forward. Different folks different strokes!

I’m curious what makes it bad? I love myprotein salted caramel flavor it’s the only one that I haven’t gotten sick of the taste.

Stuck to salted caramel since day 1, tastes like a milkshake when mixed with fresh milk.

vegan whey (animal free production of whey through fermentation). Google "Whey Forward" on the myprotein website. I use it all the time and it dissolves very well. The salted caramel is my fav flavor.
