HOW TO MAKE PROTEIN SPARING PAD THAI
To make my protein sparing pad thai, I used peanut butter Equip Prime Protein powder!
Many of you know that I am obsessed with Equip Prime Protein powder! I am in LOVE with it!
I love making recipes with it like my protein sparing Pad Thai. I used the peanut butter Equip. The peanut butter Prime Protein powder is an all-natural, comes from 100% grass-fed beef protein powder with only only 3 ingredients: beef, peanut butter flour powder, salt, and stevia. No fillers, no additives, no chemicals and it is so delicious!

This sounds AMAZING! Thank you Maria!!
Thank you!!
Thank you, Maria, for another great recipe. And it looks so delicious! I can’t wait to eat it.
I hope you love it as much as we do 🙂
This sounds amazing! What are the macros please?
Sorry about that. I added the nutritional information above 🙂
Hi, What do we use if we don’t have peanut protein? Can we use peanut butter or almond butter ?
You could do that, but it would not be protein sparing. Peanut Butter powder will work and would give better macros for PSMF.
Would substituting with peanut flour or PB2 work?
Yes, that should work. But I think PB2 has sugar in it.
I have the sugar free one – thank you for the heads up
Great 🙂
Do you have nutritional information for this recipe Maria?? It looks delicious!
I added the nutritional information above 🙂
Thank you for the recipe. Can I use the egg life egg white wraps for noodles and PB2 instead of the Equip?
Egglife wraps make great PSMF noodles: https://mariamindbodyhealth.com/protein-sparing-noodles/
I don’t recommend PB2 because it has added sugar. But another brand with clean ingredients would be okay 🙂
Will PB powder work, and if so, is the amount the same?
Sure, you could do that. Try the same amount 🙂
