What’s wonderful about a plant-packed morning smoothie is that it sets a solid tone for the rest of the day. What makes it a no-brainer is something like Vejo. This starter kit includes the Vejo blender bottle—there’s an electric blender inside, which is powerful, lightweight, and good for a whole week of blending on a charge—as well as eight pods for plant-based protein shakes. To make a smoothie, you just give your chosen pod a good shake, pop it into the bottle’s cap, and click it on. The freeze-dried ingredients blend beautifully into cold water or your favorite alt milk. The protein shakes included in this pack (you get four vanilla and four chocolate) provide organic pea protein, sprouted chia seed, millet, amaranth, buckwheat, and quinoa. They’re made with vegan digestive enzymes to support healthy protein digestion, too. And when you’re ready for a refill on pods, Vejo’s website has a ton of options for smoothies, shakes, juices, coffees, and teas.
