Either homemade or Kitchen Basics broth. If using the boxed I heated it with some herbs to give it more flavor.

Isopure Zero Carb

Premier Protein chocolate

Muscle Milk 100

sugar free Jello pudding cups, Dulce de Leche or Chocolate/Vanilla Swirl

That's it, I didn't like the popsicles and hate vanilla Greek yogurt and the doc said no fruit in the yogurt.
