Turmeric is a small, orange looking root you can find in just about every grocery store. In contrast, while it may seem simple, it’s not. Turmeric part of the ginger family and is a wonderful, nutrient-dense powerhouse that has been proven to have quite a few benefits associated with it. However, most importantly for busy moms who work out is that turmeric is full of anti-inflammatory components. And it’s for this reason I love using this turmeric protein smoothie post-workout. Likewise, It helps: But this peach turmeric protein smoothie uses not just turmeric powder to fight inflammation. It also contains ginger and lemon juice. And both of these ingredients have their own anti-inflammatory properties as well (check out all the ways ginger can help you). Since making the swap to a vegan protein powder I now have a few brands I love and Orgain Protein Powder is one of them. Orgain protein powder is allergy-friendly (no soy, gluten-free, kosher, etc), has no added sugar and no artificial sweeteners, and actually won Preventions Cleanest Packaged Food Award! Additionally, it has 21 grams of vegan protein per scoop and it’s a clean enough brand that I feel comfortable giving it to my girls. If you want to give it a try, check it out and use code mamabear30 for 10% off your first-ever order. For this peach turmeric protein smoothie, I used turmeric powder. However, the root would work just fine. Considering this, remember that turmeric powder is more concentrated than the root so you’ll want more of the root than the measurements of the powder. That said, most of the time, turmeric powder is simply easier to have on hand as the root does go bad. Personally, I like Organic Traditions Turmeric Powder and keep some on hand. Organic traditions are a popular superfood brand and I use them frequently because they don’t add anything to their superfoods. Furthermore, they place their focus on quality products as well as quality sourcing. So, they’re a brand I trust. Outside of this turmeric protein smoothie, there are lots of ways to bump up your intake your turmeric! Similarly, they’re all tasty too!

It’s been cold as crap lately but I’m somehow still craving smoothies for whatever reason! :O I’m gonna have to try this! <3
Haha yup I feel you. I’m -30 here and it sucks! That said… I still love a daily smoothie! So many healthy ingredients to cram in lol
I’ve got to try this for sure. I know turmeric has anti-inflammatory properties, and with my chronic illness, this would probably help me!
Yay! Give it a shot and let me know what you think. Turmeric is insanely helpful when taken regularly. If you want pure anti-inflammatory benefits for illness, have you looked into taking curcumin supplements? It’s the main component in turmeric- chat to your doc about it.. or just make super tasty smoothies each day 😀
I really like adding turmeric to my recipes, so this sounds great! I’ve never had peaches in a smoothie before, but I find most fruit works well in a smoothie. And if not, the next time I think I’ll give mango a try instead.
No peaches?! I adore peaches in smoothies because they’re one of the fruits that help make smoothies creamy- which is always yummy!
It looks so nice and healthy. I checked also the Mango Orange Green shake and it will be the first one to try from your recipies 🙂
Ohh mango orange one is one of my daughters favorites- it’s a tasty one. Give it a shot and please let me know what you think! We’re smoothie fiends in this house so it’s nice to hear others opinions too 🙂
I’m embarrassed to say I have stillllll not tried turmeric & at this point I have no excuse – I gotta get on this for the new year!
Haha not to worry.. there’s always time to give it a try 😉
This recipe sounds amazing. I know how beneficial turmeric is so I’ll have to try it in a smoothie. Thank you.
I have turmeric obsessions (seriously haha) But give it a shot and let me know what you think of it!
I was totally in the mood for something creamy and citrusy tonight and this was perfect!
Wahooo!!! It’s sooo yummy 😀
I love this flavor combo!! Pinned for later so I can give it a try! 🙂
Thank you! I’m obsessed with peach smoothies 😀
Turmeric is a magic spice. It has so many health benefits and properties that it’s impossible to count on the fingers. This recipe is great and I am surely going to try it 🙂

It is a magic spice! With so many benefit it’s silly to ignore!
I never think to make a peach smoothie and I don’t know why! It sounds so good…and of course with turmeric, getting the anti-inflammatory goodness (plus I hear also cholesterol reduction, or so I hear), sign me up!
Such a great idea to add turmeric! Looks so delicious and refreshing
Turmeric has sooo many benefits! I put it in everything:D
I love the turmeric and ginger to balance out the sweetness of the peach!Yum!
Yes! Two kick butt roots!
This sounds delicious!!! My little one is on my lap right now and said it looks yummy too. I love all of the flavors in this.
Haha my little one actually loved it too so hopefully yours feels the same! Too cute 🙂
This sounds wonderful and like something I need to try
It’s a super tasty one!
I love peaches with turmeric!
It’s a yummy combination!
Great recipe! Omitted orange juice and coconut milk- none on hand. Also, increased milk to a cup, added splash of water and used salted caramel protein powder since that was all I had. Was a bit concerned about the taste but turned out fantastic!!! Do keep in mind that wasn’t very sweet, big plus for me.
Thanks so much for dropping by with kind words! Ahh salted caramel protein would be delicious in this! Salted caramel protein makes everything better haha I’m with you though, I don’t need things overly sweet. Glad you enjoyed it!
