Notes
1. The other nuts and seeds you may add are cashew nuts, walnuts, sunflower seeds or melon seeds.
2. If you like the flavour of cardamom and saffron then go for it. Blend these both along with other ingredients.
3. Make sure to cool all the ingredients completely before blending to avoid turning it into a paste rather than powder.
4. The veg protein powder tends to settle down at the bottom of the glass once blended with any liquid. So keep stirring it while drinking.
5. Always store the protein powder in refrigerator.
