I use gold standard 100% whey in French vanilla. Its tasty and there isn't a nasty after taste.

There are lots of posts about this. You can get a bunch of information by searching for "protein shakes" or something similar. The search box is on the right near the top.

ISOPURE liquid protein (40 grams per 20 oz bottle)

New whey protein shots (42 grams per 4 oz vial) best watered down IMO

Shakes:

Body fortress (Walmart) chocolate/vanilla / strawberry

Syntrex Nectar (on line) cookies and cream/ fuzzy navel/ many flavors

Unjury protein (on line) most popular is the unflavored powder that you can add to Anything!

Ie: turn butternut squash soup into a protein packed meal. They also carry protein hot cocoa and chicken broth.

My very favorite protein shake is to take 1 cup of fat free double protein milk (by Lucerne/ Safeway grocery store)

Add I scoop of vanilla protein powder

5 ice cubes

And anything I'm in the mood for:

Pumpkin pie: I always freeze things into ice cube trays so I take 1 cube at a time

1 cube of pumpkin purée

1 tsp SF maple syrup

Sprinkle cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger

BANANA NUT:

Omit Ice cubes add 1/2 banana (I freeze in slices)

And a few walnuts

Dash of vanilla or banana extract

Reece's PEANUT BUTTER CUP

1 scoop chocolate protein powder

2 tbsp smooth peanut butter (all natural) I grind my own nut butters

PIÑA COLADA SMOOTHIE:

1 scoop vanilla Pwdr

1/2 cup frozen pineapple

Substitute 1/2 of the milk for coconut milk

Add an umbrella parasol... Go sit out in the sunshine... Soak up the vitamin D... Enjoy your mini island retreat.

APPLE PIE A LA MODE

1/2 cup stewed apples in cinnamon nutmeg or applesauce add nutmeg (frozen)

The list is endless...

Whatever you're in the mood for you can turn into a protein shake.

And if it's something savory... Go with unjurys unflavored protein to create that savory dish. You can order a sample pack for $21 from them.

Bon appetite!

I use protein shots, I get mine at Walmart. I use fruit punch in a fruit punch crystal lite and it is good. You can use other flavors in different crystal lite just have to try them. I add 32 oz water instead of 20 like the crystal lite says. Good luck.

I have also put shots in isopure to make them more drinkable.

When did you guys stop Protein shakes

You can stop them once your able to get enough protein from solid food but it's always good to have some on hand for emergency days when u just don't have time or access to adequate nutrition. I love my shakes. Will probably always keep them on my menu.

Wow! Shots in ISOPURE. That would yield 82 grams of protein in about 24 oz of liquid. I just can't imagine how that tastes but dang that's a great way to double down and git r done on protein! I might try that sometime.

Remember to check the type of protein. Collegen protein is usual in the shots and out body doesn't use that as well as whey protein. Also our body can only process 30 grams at a time so 82 is just going to waste
