Hi! I’ve recently found out I’m sensitive to dairy and eggs and had to switch from my whey protein powder to pure paleo protein powder. I absolutely cannot get past the smell. I have only tried it mixed with water as directed on the tub. I’m looking for your favourite beef protein smoothies! TIA!

    I tried blending steak and salad once. It was disgusting.

    There are other alternatives... WPI has negligible lactose, and lactose intolerant people generally have no issues with it - have you tried that?
    Plant based proteins are also dairy and egg free.

    Thanks! I will definitely check that out. My naturopath recommended the pure paleo but I just can’t. Lol.

    I like the Primal Kitchen Collagen Fuel and the Paleo Pro protein powders.

    Sorry, just realized the Paleo Pro protein does have egg protein in it. But the Primal Kitchen one does not.

    going to ask the potentially dumb question - do you need protein powder to hit your goals for the day or could you focus more on getting through lean meat, grains (not eggs/dairy)

    I find I have a hard time hitting the protein goals from my dietician.

    There are vegan protein powders (e.g., soy, hemp, pea) if you can't have dairy or egg and you don't like the beef protein powder.
