I have tried making a couple of different protein shakes and they tasted pretty bad. Those of you that make protein shakes what are some your favorite recipes? I am not getting enough protein and would really like to have use these in my diet!

I like the Unjury products. I will put 1 scoop of chocolate, and 1-2 T. powdered peanut butter into 8 oz Original Almond milk....tastes like Reese's peanut butter.

The Pure ProteinShake is my favorite ready made. Only 120 calories, 1 g sugar and 23g protein.

I like unjury products. The unflavored one is great for making a variety of things. Right now I'm having a smoothie. Handful of frozen strawberries ( I buy fresh, wash, slice and freeze) 1/2 banana, splash of Water, a little stevia and a scoop of Protein. I have a magic bullet and I love it. I put it in Soups (keep temp under 130 or it will clump) and the unjury chicken soup is great. I add a can of chicken breast to it.

That sounds good too!

Funny' date=' before surgery I tolerated just about any protein drink...now 4 wks out, yeah NO is putting it politely!! Projectile vomiting...the only thing I can tolerate now is called roadside lemonade made by Nectar. They have alot of different kinds, I used to like the peach flavor with orange crystal light but I'm hesitant to try it now. Goin with what works at this point. Good luck!![/quote']

Worried about that myself..... :-/

Unjury is really good! I like it a lot. I make the vanilla and add orange crystal light and it tastes like a creamcicle. The chocolate is super good too. They even have a no flavor that you can add to other food.

Tried to no flavor w milk (skim) and I wanted to throw the hell up. And I am pre op!

I would suggest going to Vitamin World. They will let you try samples, they understand what we need to have pre and post surgery and are having a buy one get one half off sale right now. The sales person I spoke with put me right at ease and mixed 3 flavors for me to try. I had to to get used to the flavor, but I have only been on my protein shake for a week and I love it. They have a fruit punch, strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate. Although my surgeon said to avoid chocolate because people tend not to tolerate it well after surgery. You just mix one scoop with 8 oz of water 3-4 times a day. It has 31 grams of protein per 8 ounce serving, less than 1 gram sugar and 99% lactose free. It is whey protein isolate by procision engineeed. They also carry all the liquid and chewable vitamins we will need post surgery. And, unlike GNC, there is NO fee for their savings card. So all the savings are given to everyone for free! Please check them out, I got what we thought would be at least 250 for about 110. And I would definitely suggest getting a few blendy cups, they are a life saver! That is the one thing I did get from GNC. They were the only ones I found that carry the half size blendy cups, which do come in handy when you are on the go and have a lot to carry with you.
