They’re really high in protein and can be the perfect pre or post workout snack! I’ve added my favorite vegan protein powder from Vivo Life and the addition of chickpeas and pumpkin give it an extra health boost. If you don’t know Vivo Life yet – they’re my go-to ethical company for anything vegan related: supplements, vegan protein powder, and of course matcha/turmeric/raw chocolate!

They’re available all over the US, UK, and most of Europe and I hope they’ll further expand their distribution! If you’ve never tried them and want to give it a go, the code ‘TheTastyK’ will save you some bucks!

What’s specifically so great about this company you ask? They really put an effort into creating the most sustainable and high quality products as possible. In addition to planting a tree for every order, many of their packaging is home compostable and hence made from plants instead of plastic!

But, let’s get back to the Pumpkin Brownies. They’re super easy to make as you simply throw everything into your food processor and after 30 minutes of baking you have a tray of these delicious goodies!
