Trying to choose a protein powder

I also rely on protein powder to reach my protein goal- I eat mostly a vegan diet and really like Naturade and Sunwarrior vanilla flavored which are 2 plant based powders. Before I head out for my morning run, I throw a scoop of powder, cold coffee and a couple of ice cubes in the Nutriblast. Nature's perfect food- caffeine and protein and it tastes yummy and is easy to digest so I'm not running on empty.0

Go to myprotein and order some impact whey in a flavour of your choice.1

I've started having a fried egg with my breakfast and I'll look into the Edamame beans - I'd never heard of them before!
Great choice! Find them in the frozen vegetable section or with the nuts or bulk in dried form, sometimes salted. If you get the frozen ones, just thaw them out and snack like peas.0 -

Another vote for MyProtein here. I use unflavoured whey isolate- a couple of scoops is around 50g of protein. Also Greek yoghurt. Personally I loathe it but it's higher in protein than ordinary yoghurt.
Edit to add : whey isolate powder is no more artificial than any other food and the unflavoured one has nothing added.0 -
The SKYR with honey aint bad.....
