Want some suggestions on a good tasteless protein powder to mix in with my food when I'm able to start eating.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a "tasteless" protein powder.  They will all have that protein after-taste and smell that we all hate.  There are many "unflavored" protein powders that can be mixed with savory foods to try to mask the taste and smell.  "Unflavored" means not chocolate, vanilla, etc.  It does not mean tasteless.  GNC makes one that is tolerable.  Early out from surgery the unflavored proteins make it easier to mix with savory foods like pureed soups and broths.  I got so sick of sweet things at first, the unflavored protein powder was a lifesaver for me.  I mixed it with Crystal Light raspberry ice and drank it from a covered cup to mask the smell.

A child's sippy cup is perfect for this use.

I had my surgery with Dr. Z last Wednesday.   Still on clear liquids, but looking forward to Thursday when I should be able to go to full liquids (adding milk products).  Good luck on your journey.
