Lemon Meringue Protein Pudding Recipe Tips:

• Make sure to use a good tasting vegan protein powder. The protein powder is the main sweetener here so make sure to use one that you like!
• Use medium firm tofu for the creamiest texture.
• If you prefer silken tofu, drain and pat-dry before making the pudding, or else you may end up with runny pudding.
• Use freshly squeezed lemon juice.

Lemon Meringue Protein Pudding Meal Prep Tip:

Prepare the pudding in advance, portion it into individual containers and store it in the refrigerator for a convenient on-the-go protein-packed snack ready whenever you need it.

Substitution/Allergies

Can I use silken tofu?

Yes! You can use silken tofu in this recipe, although it may result in a slightly more liquidy texture. Omit the plant milk when using silken tofu. The pudding will still turn out delicious, but with a different consistency (a bit runny).

Make it soy free!

For those avoiding soy, cashews can be a great substitute for tofu. Swap out the medium-firm tofu with cashews and blend them with the other ingredients. This variation may increase the fat content, so keep that in mind. Adjust the consistency by adding plant milk as needed until you reach your desired consistency. Make sure to use soy-free plant milk as well. You can even use oat yogurt for a lower-fat version.

Use your favorite protein powder

This recipe shines when paired with a sweet vegan protein powder, so you don’t need to add artificial sweeteners. Feel free to choose your favorite vegan protein powder and enjoy the benefits of a protein-packed dessert.

Experiment with different ingredients

Get creative, experiment with different ingredients, and find the perfect combination that suits your taste buds. Replace the lemon juice and zest with an equal amount of lime juice and zest. Fold in some fresh fruits to the pudding or add some blueberries to garnish the pudding. Add mint leaves for a cooling element.
