Unflavored protein powder
Can anyone recommend or even tell me which ones NOT to bother wasting money trying? Looking for the best unflavored whey protein powder. One that mixes nicely with cold and warm liquids and purees and doesnt have an odd taste. Thanks!

New tricks and tips
A friend gave me a tip of adding fat free powdered milk to any shakes or milk to increase the protein so it's easier to meet protein requirements during the post surgery period when u consume very little.

The only meat i plan to puree is chicken or turkey for "chicken salads" Will do hard boiled eggs like that as well. I can't imagine it any other way. I have had friend do meats in fat free gravy or in with potatoes etc. Doesn't sound appetizing to me.

So far I have bought my kitchen scale, New measuring cups, small 4 oz containers to prepare and freeze portions of soups etc. A vitamix blender, a mini chopper. I bought sampler packs of protein drinks from 2 different companies. A few 4 packs of different brands and flavors of ready to drink protein. Silicone molds for broth and soups. Still have a list of items to pick up (overkill, I know) Oh and 2 books.
