Ugh - 2 months in and I'm sooooooooooo tired of chocolate and vanilla protein powder. I don't have much time in the morning (I already get up at 5am) and don't really want to get up even earlier to be try to be creative hahaha.
Has anyone tried Nectar? Any flavors they love?
Or how about like Isopure - cookies and cream or Mint chocolate chip?
I like the vanilla but I'm so over adding syrup and or fruit. bleh
Save me from Protein drink lameness! hahahaa

I LOVE Syntrax Nectar cappuccino.
Instant coffee is good in vanilla protein.

Wow Kelly I would never have thought of instant coffee in my vanilla - that is great will have to give that a try. I currently use click and do like that
Oh, I think coffee is really good in vanilla protein. It works in almost any brand, too. Even if I don't like the vanilla by itself very much, put coffee in it, and it's not bad.

Definitely a fan of decaf coffee added to vanilla protein powder. I'm not a vanilla person, but with the coffee added, it makes a nice flavor and takes the sweetness edge down a bit.
Do you like coffee? Every morning I have a scoop of Click and a scoop of Isopure Dutch Chocolate with water (milk if you prefer) and ice. It replaces the sugar-laden iced coffee I used to drink and it's like 32 grams of protien.
I did not enjoy the Nectar roadside lemonade or fuzzy navel, I still have some of the sample packet sizes.

How about unflavored protein powder? You can add it to more savory things, like gazpacho.
Or, adding a scoop of protein powder to FF ricotta cheese? I've been experimenting with adding it to that instead of milk/water. Mix well, and it's kind of like a flavored cheesecake filling, but with lots of protein. I just tried Matrix Orange Cremé with some ricotta today--super delish!
Or, adding some Nectar flavors you like to Greek yogurt? Similar to the ricotta thing, but it adds pizazz to the plain yogurt without tons of sugar and adds more protein.
Hope those help!
