OVER protein shakes

I am so sick of the taste of these shakes now (Premier Protein and Myoplex -- anything whey but specifically the bottled ones). To me they smell like rotten milk. Trying to figure out a way to get my protein in without these shakes. Going to try my 'unflavored' protein mixed with various Soups. I miss using soy protein in fruit shakes (banana and berries) and although Whey protein isolate is what is recommended I may need to modify things to meet my daily needs. I've gone too many days being grossed out by shakes and not meeting protein goals.

Does anyone have any other creative ideas on how to get that protein goal met daily?

I still haven't tried oatmeal with protein. It sounds gross because I've never liked oatmeal to begin with unless it had lots of brown sugar and cranberries in it (and I can't stand the flavor of artificial flavors).

I sound like such a spoiled brat, but I'll risk looking like a jerk if I can get great advice from experienced people here. Thanks in advance! post-305854-14835502339028_thumb.jpg

I got Atkins Lift Protein water (20g protein each bottle)and Protein2O (15g protein per bottle). I like the Protein20 tropical coconut best.

Thanks. I will try the egg white Protein. I think I have a sample of some somewhere.

I found one way that I can bearably use my unflavored protein (Genepro). I mix it with Koolaid (sweetened artificially). I wouldn't have that every day, but it is bearable when I need the protein.

Since chicken makes me nauseous I grabbed up as many Shady Brook Farms turkey thighs as I could and froze them. I cook 2 large thighs at a time in the slow cooker overnight and the meat is like pulled pork. Then I make turkey salad and eat it alone or with half a piece of whole wheat toast or with whole wheat saltines.

Fat free refried Beans with a little bit of lowfat cheese is delicious.

I just picked up these items which each have at least 10g protein (the sausage, egg white, and cheddar one has 16g)attachicon.gif ImageUploadedByBariatricPal1483738075.157285.jpg

Do not try the Frittatas in the photo. So disgusting. The egg white and sausage sandwich is not bad though.
