the strawberry Cheesecake Protein shake recipe it is SOOOOO good! I'm gonna try different fruit flavors now.

1 scoop vanilla Protein powder

skim milk

1T cheesecake SF/FF Jello pudding mix (or to your taste)

4 frozen strawberries

blend the heck out of it to make sure the strawberry is liquified.

I found the 'recipe' surfing on the board and would never have figured it out on my own lol. I think it was from 2006!

i make this just about every am for my husband (he's also banded) & he's tight most mornings.

i like to make chocolate cheese cake (choc soy protein), Peanut Butter cheese cake (tsp pb & vanilla soy)....you can play around a LOT.....

it's a great recp...., i loved when i fell upon that thread as well!

oooooooh PB!!! good idea!!! is there a good PB to use on pre-op liquid diet?

ya know i use plain ol' creamy jiff :tt1:

i didn't find these recps till i was 6 months in - so i trudged it out with the EAS carb control drinks , which got OLD....

i'm sure you can add more Water or milk to get the pb into a liquid form..

good luck w/your surgery!
