I need some recipes for protein shakes. I have tried only one and didn't like it and now I have not had any since Feb. I need to get my protein and I'm not doing good. So if anyone has a good way to mix injury protein powder with please let me know. Thanks:paranoid

I used to work at a gym and we made shakes for the weight lifters... they were delcious..

2 - 3 scoops of frozen strawberries (about like an ice cream scoop size)

1/2 banana

1 cup ice

1 scoop of Protein powder

1/2 cup skim milk

Blend in a strong ice crushing blender!

It's pretty tasty and refreshing! We got the frozen strawberries by the gallon at sams club

I mix skim milk, Protein powder, frozen fruit, some ice cubes, and a scoop of yogurt into a Protein Drink for the wife. They are very good!!

We use EAS protein from GNC or the Vitamin store.

I hated every protein mix I tried, so I stick with Slim Fast powder. The new one is low carb. I add skim milk, crushed ice, and a scoop of Knox Bone and Joint Powder (extra protein). Then I whiz the whole thing in my Magic Bullet. If you like a sweeter drink, add some Equal.

I use a protien drink, Like ottwalla Van. almond then I add half a bannana, and a scoop of protien power, it packs 15 gms of Protien in 8 oz cup!!

A Favorite Summertime Shake:

3/4 c. light cranberry cocktail

1 orange, peeled

1/2 banana

opt. any berry that would fit in (strawberry, raspberry, blueberry)

1 carton vanilla sf/ff yogurt

nutmeg (just a sprinkle)

ice

Whir in the blender. You could add extra Protein powder (maybe vanilla flavor). This is a great blend and go drink! :gluck:

I just want to tell everyone Thank-you I will be trying these and hopefully this will help me get my protein.

I use the protein shakes from Costco and add the unjury unflavored powder

I found that the unjury powder was very icky. My best bet for Protein powder is Carb Solutions Meal Replacement powder (Safeway/TomThumb) or something called Six Star that I get at Walmart. Either one is quite palatable mixed with anything. I use vanilla and chocolate, depending on what I am mixing with.

If you start with better tasting protein powder, the shakes will be more doable.

Good Luck!
