Protein Drink Recipes - ideas?
So in my quest to get myself back on track some & work on some of the bad habits I have acquired I am really thinking about going back to at least one protein drink a day. This will probably be a morning thing as I am really bad about not getting anything into my system for a good 3 - 4 hours after I wake up each day. Hubby is also working on some of his own health goals and is looking into protein drinks for himself. Any great recipe ideas? We are both morning coffee drinkers.
Here is what we did today:
Hubby: (using muscle milk - chocolate) mixed with 10 oz of water, 1/2 banana in the bullet
Me: (using Matrix vanilla samples I had on hand) mixed with 8 oz low fat vanilla yogurt, 1/2 banana, 6 oz of milk in the bullet
I will also need brand, flavor ideas. I always used Isopure dutch chocolate before but not sure if I want to go the same or look into a bit more variety.
#1.
1 scoop EAS Whey Protein powder-vanilla

4oz milk
#2
1 scoop EAS Whey Protein Powder-vanilla

3/4 banana
4oz. milk
#3.
1 scoop EAS Whey Protein Powder-Vanilla
handful of frozen mixed fruit
4oz milk
#4
1 scoop EAS WHey Protein Powder-vanilla
1/2 cup yesterdays coffee( place leftover coffee in fridge instead of pouring out)
2tbs Divinci SF Carmel Syrup
4oz milk
I have a personal blender ( magic bullet will work)
Blend it together and drink it
I like Melanie's ideas. You can get the EAS powders at Walmart. I've not tried them only the ready-to-drink ones but I may buy some and try the recipes she put. Never been a powder gal here. Its a consistency thing.
I get the EAS AdvantEDGE Carb Control RTD in chocolate. I drink 2 of these a day. I am NOT a breakfast person either. So, I usually drink one in the am and then oatmeal.
Hope ya'll find things you like. Check out the EAS site. They've got a different variety of flavors than offered in the store and there may be some things there for hubs too.
Love ya.
