Topic: RE: protein shake receips?
I use a chocolate protein powder... mix it with warm water (in my Magic Bullet), and add some DaVinci syrup (I have many flavors to choose from)... then I top it off with some really ho****er (from the kettle)... and it tastes just like a hot chocolate (only better). Yum!
