Creamy Snickers Tofu Smoothie (37g protein!)

This creamy tofu smoothie tastes like a Snickers bar and packs in the protein – a whopping 37g! – without protein powder, Greek yogurt or banana. It’s a high protein plant-based breakfast with a simple low FODMAP swap for sensitive tummies too.

Super filling with 37g protein, this easy tofu smoothie tastes like a Snickers bar!

Somehow, inexplicably, I’m the parent of a teenager. I’m the parent of a teen athlete whose found the fitness side of the internet, so he’s always sending me these high protein recipe videos he sees on Snapchat and which I typically kibosh…until now.

It’s been so interesting as a dietitian to have these conversations about our collective protein obsession with my kid. Yes, protein is important…but overdoing it isn’t helping anyone.

This insanely creamy, ridiculously easy tofu smoothie was inspired by a recipe creator on snapchat who made a snickers tofu smoothie with, ahem, WAY too much protein for anyone other than a bodybuilder.

It’s a very different kind of smoothie as the protein comes from peanuts and soy (firm tofu and soy milk) and the only fruit it contains is dates. PS: I tested this smoothie a ridiculous amount of times (like 7!) to get it just right and the dates are essential! Dates give that caramel flavour we love, plus offer gut-boosting fibre without the FODMAPs.

You want a smoothie that will actually fill you up? This one will do it. And, because we all have different energy and protein needs, one simple swap – soy milk or almond milk – will allow you to customize this smoothie with 37g or 29g protein – and the almond milk swap makes this smoothie low FODMAP too!

Want to know how much protein you ACTUALLY need? I’ve got a blog post that breaks down the basics on protein and top sources of plant-based protein in food.

Pro Tips for making this creamy Snickers tofu smoothie

First things first: grab those ingredients! You might be like, duh, but I make breakfast before the caffeine hits so I need the reminder ha ha

tofu, soy milk, dates, cocoa, peanuts in bowls
Heads Up: I’m making this smoothie with firm tofu, NOT silken, because I know that some of you have a harder time finding it. It still blends up smooth!

I am SO in love with this easy 5 ingredient smoothie…it’s naturally vegan, gluten free and a great option for those of you who want to eat more soy because it’s much more affordable way to get a high protein breakfast. Super filling, and blood sugar friendly!

Blending trick: the blender will initially throw up some tofu crumbles when it blends. If you don’t want to end up chewing a couple, blend for 30 seconds, scrape the sides, then blend again.

Even with the dates, this smoothie is NOT that sweet, which I prefer. Want it a bit more dessert-like? Add maple syrup to taste.

Love this as much as I do? Want even more fun plant-based recipes? Grab a copy of my latest cookbook, Plant Magic.

Author Desiree Nielsen, RD

Equipment

  • High Speed Blender or a strong bullet blender

Ingredients

  • ⅓ package firm tofu drained, see low FODMAP note below!
  • 1 cup unsweetened soy milk choose almond milk for low FODMAP
  • ¼ cup salted peanuts
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 2 or 3 Medjool dates or 5 smaller Deglet Noor dates
Imperial – Metric

Instructions

  • Place all ingredients in a high speed blender. Blend for 30 seconds, starting on medium and up to high. Scrape the little bits off the sides of the blender, blend 30 more seconds on high. Enjoy!

Notes

Low FODMAP note: 1 cup (140g) of firm tofu is low FODMAP, anything more than that starts to get a little high in fructan. My packages locally are 500g, so 1/3 of that is 166g.

So to be truly low FODMAP, during the elimination phase, make sure you use no more than 1 cup!

Also, using salted peanuts as opposed to peanut butter, really makes it taste like a snickers bar but in a pinch, swapping for 2 tbsp peanut butter will work.
