Protein Powder In Your Recipes?

[VJSlim 156]

I usually take the Protein mix only with water/milk. Do you guys use it in any other recipes like Soup or something? I dont really like the taste of the powder with milk or Water and would like to try some other recipes if at all possible. Thoughts?

I bought bananas tonight to try to disguise the taste.

Peanut Butter bananas and milk with Protein is really good!

Use half a banana, strawberries, or other types of items to add taste.

Go to the food forum under Protein Shakes and there is a huge list of recipes to make your Protein Drinks taste really good! There are all sorts of things you can put in there!

It may be that you need to change the brand you are drinking. Or try some premixed?

isnt there a non flavored Protein Powder? is it by injury?

[Escape_Pod 358]

I mix chocolate Protein powder (I like the Unjury brand) with almond milk (lower in carbs than skim), and about a tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder and heat it to make a morning hot cocoa.

There are lots of things you can add for flavor - fruit, yogurt, sugar free flavored syrups (like the coffee shops use), crystal light, instant pudding mix...

I've also mixed vanilla powder in with greek yogurt and Jello to make a sort of "fluff", and if you're far enough along, you can add fruit. I liked lemon jello in the early days when everything was too sweet. Just make sure the dissolved jello isn't too hot when you add the protein powder - if it is, you'll get clumps.

Thanks for all your replies and I will also check out the recipes in the food section of the site.

The problem is.. I'm in India and I'm not much familiar with the brands of Protein shakes. I'm using the one that my doc prescribed and I usually buy it in a pharmacy near my doc's clinic. So I dont know any other options.

I'll check with my doc to see if I can buy unflavored Protein powder anywhere else and start trying out the recipes..

Again, thanks for your help, you guys!

I still depend on Protein Shakes on occasion to meet my requirements. I've been soooo sick of all the flavors and combos. Forensikchick suggested unflavored Unjury in orange juice! It worked GREAT for me. I don't do it daily, but it gave me one more combo to try when the milk or Water just doesn't go down. Good luck with this!!!!

Can you buy Protein powder online? There are several good ones that can be bought online.

See if you can get the samples sent to India. There is also a list of places to get samples in the food section under the Protein Powder section.

I will try buying online or have my cousin (who lives in Chicago) buy some packs when she visits India in a couple of months.

I should try that - I hope any brand of unflavored protein powder works fine when mixed with Orange juice....
