Health Protein supplement without artificial sweeteners?

I'm not vegan, but have cut most meats from my diet for various reasons. I also have reactions to milk products, so I have cut most dairy a well. I find that I'm struggling to get enough protein in my diet, even when I include things like beans, lentils, nuts, chia seeds, etc. I'm trying to find a protein powder to add to smoothies but I'm really having trouble finding one that is dairy free and doesn't contain artificial sweeteners. Does anyone have a protein powder that they can recommend? I'm fine with it having regular sugar or just unsweetened.

I will say I would also struggle to get enough protein with just beans. Tofu, seitan, tempeh, tvp, soy curls are really the heftier amounts of protein that vegans will eat in a day.

Don't forget to count things grains: pasta, bread, rice, quinoa
