is it just me or does the unflavored actually have flavor

how do you guys make your protein shakes appetizing??

The unflavoured is ... well, I don’t like it! I tried the Nectar fruity shakes, read they were good - but the odd milky protein flavour was, to me, just so weird in apple juice! The taste of ‘unflavoured’ is not to my taste, be it whey or pea.

But, after a fair few tries, I have hit on a recipe that disguises it, so maybe try this:

one nespresso pod, as a long shot, chilled overnight

splash of milk

heaped scoop of the least sweet vanilla protein powder I could find

6 ice cubes.

Blitz in NutriBullet and voila, a perfect quick breakfast. The coffee takes away the protein powder sweet, the ice cubes make it thick.

I really like the Quest products. They sell packets so you can just try it out before buying a huge container.

thanks!!!

The unflavored protein powder doesn’t sit well on my sleeve. I’ve been using premier protein shakes. 30g of protein per shake and tons of different flavors. The cookies and creme is my favorite. If you have a Sams near you then they are way cheaper there.

I bought unflavored protein powder and mixed it with jello, YUCK! Didn't want to mix it with anything else after that. I definitely prefer flavored shakes to it. That's how I get a majority of my protein now that I'm one week post op.

Yessss! I was hoping someone would ask about protein water! I've really gotten used to this: https://www.amazon.com/Protein2o-Low-Calorie-Protein-Infused-16-9-Ounce/dp/B01GQ5HBGI/ref=sr_1_3_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1521227525&sr=8-3&keywords=protein%2Bwater&th=1

It kinda tastes like grape feet (yes. FEET.), but once you get used to it, it's really not horrible. Part of our journey is switching our mindsets from eating for pleasure vs. now eating for survival. This bottle is 15g of protein, and I drink it on my way to work before breakfast.

You can do it!
