” … The NUWI® Quinoa Smoothie fulfills our dream of using quinoa in a pure, natural way that leads to a healthy, balanced diet. Because we believe that making wise choices about nourishing your body is key to health and wellbeing.” Nuwi Founder(s) statement
A few months ago we were super excited to introduce you to Nuwi Quinoa Smoothies! Made with the super food Quinoa, and a few simple, certified-organic ingredients, Nuwi Quinoa Smoothies are a convenient and refreshing way to get your daily intake of vegan protein, essential amino acids, fiber and iron, among other valuable nutrients. Nuwi premiered their Blueberry flavored smoothie several months ago. Though I found this flavor tasty, I also enjoy variety, so I was happy to recently discover that Nuwi is now offering a new BANANA flavored smoothie, which is absolutely delicious!
Both flavors are GLUTEN-FREE, LACTOSE-FREE, SOY-FREE, NON-GMO and CERTIFIED ORGANIC. Nuwi smoothies are a zero-cholesterol source of complex carbohydrates, and are sweetened with agave syrup.
Enjoy your BANANA flavored Nuwi Quinoa Smoothie at breakfast, as an afternoon treat, post workout or anytime you desire a healthy, refreshing beverage. I also love the convenience of grabbing one from the refrigerator as I’m heading out the door .. a much healthier snack choice than, say, a bag of salty chips! The smoothies can be enjoyed by vegans, vegetarians and those with gluten and/or lactose intolerance.
Nuwi Quinoa Smoothies are thick, smooth and satisfying! For the best flavor and texture be sure to refrigerate and shake well.
I wonder if there will be a third Nuwi flavor … I’ll let you know as soon as I hear of one!
