Hi, could you explain how you do your protein coffee please? I need to switch to decaf, and was wondering how you've gone about it!

Hi Mandy.  I put my decaf in a very large travel mug. It holds 16 oz. pour on the creamer of your choice, swirl to combine, then add a scoop or two of protein powder  and mix like crazy to combine. That's the basic recipe.

sometimes I will use flavored creamers, or, heavy whipping cream has fewer carbs, or lately I like the coconut almond milk.  Often I will sprinkle in some cinnamon when using vanilla protein powder. The options are endless.

Thanks, Noreen. I tried to log on and the whole OH site was down for repairs and I didn't get back on the rest of the day.  It was a beautiful day here and I just had a total Me-Day.
