This decadent Triple Chocolate Cake is vegan and packed with protein! #ILoveSilkSoy Calling all of my chocolate lovers!  I am so excited to share this cake with you guys.  I made it for my family and no one could believe that it was vegan too.  And of course it’s an added bonus that I made it with Silk Soy Milk that is filled with plant-based protein.

Chocolate cake + chocolate chips + chocolate drizzle = heaven.  I mean, vegan heaven.

Silk Soy Milk is lactose-free, dairy-free, cholesterol-free and contains no high-fructose corn syrup or artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.  Silk Soy Milk is enrolled in or verified by the Non-GMO Project and is free of gluten, casein, peanuts, egg and MSG.  Each serving has 8 grams of plant based protein per serving!  That’s more protein than any other dairy-free milk.

I don’t know about you but I am always looking for more ways to add protein to my diet.  Sure it’s kind of awesome to add protein to a cake (right??) but I also love the fact that I can add more protein to my smoothies and overnight oats.

You know that feeling when you are so absolutely famished that you could eat anything in your sight?  It’s called being hangry.  What in the world does hangry mean? It means that you become so hungry that the lack of food causes you to become really angry. That’s me around 3:00 p.m. on most days.  The only way for me to avoid being hangry is to eat have a protein filled snack in the afternoon.  This can be a fruit/vegetable smoothie made with Silk Soy Milk, some overnight oats or an apple with almond or peanut butter.  These protein filled snacks help prevent me from eating chips, my kids’ grilled cheese and whatever else is sitting in front of me at the time.  Every morning I eat my overnight oats, I workout, drink lots of water…so why ruin all of my clean living with one moment of weakness? These protein packed snacks helped to prevent me from being hangry, now I deserve a treat, right?  Why not one that’s vegan, dairy-free and loaded with plant-based protein?  Oh, I forgot to mention how crazy delicious it is and it has three types of chocolate in there! This decadent Triple Chocolate Cake is vegan and packed with protein! #ILoveSilkSoy #vegan #dairyfree Silk Soy Milk has more protein in it than any other dairy free milks.  And I love that they are verified by the Non-GMO project.  That’s really important to me. Now let’s talk chocolate.  More specifically, this amazing triple chocolate cake.
