Two Protein Experiments

OK so today, I added a sleeve of Walmart grape single to a bottled water.  Then poured half into another glass with ice.  Then added 1.5 oz of a 42 g protein bullet.  It tasted just like Kool Aid and I drunk on it for quite some time. I mixed up the other half for tomorrow at work and put it in the fridge Then I wondered...  since I didn't have grape sf jello...  and only had grape New Whey bullets, what am I going to do for tomorrow night's jello?  OK  Have an idea.  I took a sugar free cherry jello, mixed up a Nectar Twisted Cherry drink, removed the foam, and added it.  I don't know yet if it will taste good or what the consistency will be....  but I can always add a little whip cream on top to hide any ill looking effects !

Melinda, the Nectar Twisted Cherry drink, can you buy sleeves of that or does it come in a can? I am a cherry fanatic as far as a drink/jello. Cheryl

The Nectar Twisted Cherry comes in a large plastic container and is a protein powder...  you can get it locally at the Vitamin Shoppe.  I think its around $25 a container.  I added 6 oz of water to it, shook it up really good in my Blender Bottle, which is a bottle with a plastic lid and inside it has a little whisk ball that breaks up your protein powder.  It's so cool!  Anyway sorry I got diverted on my blender bottle gadget!  I know that you can take a New Whey Bullet and add it to the sf jello, so I thought well why can't I just make a regular fruity protein drink like cherry and add that instead of a protein bullet?  I don't know yet what the outcome will be! But stay tuned tomorrow evening and we will all do a taste test...  Now the grape sleeves I talk about are not protein, they are walmart's version (cheap) of Crystal Light.  I like it a lot.  Helps me get the daily fluid in!

I look forward to the outcome. The protein bullets are too sweet to me so I just might try it diluted. Keep the tips coming.

OK the results are in... The Protein jello was a different looking jello.  Took a little longer than usual to set up, but tonight after we got home from dinner & shopping, I scooped out some and put a little whip cream on top.  It tasted good... once I got over the very red looking jello...  very congealed, if thats the word for it?  Tim said he liked it. Now, I liked the New Whey Grape so much in the cheapo Walmart grape singles to go, that I bought a tropic punch and put it into sf hawaiian punch & water.  I also bought blue rasberry but not quite sure yet which flavor of cheapo crystal lite I will put into it.  I only use 1 bottle of 16.9 water, one sleeve of powdered drink, and one oz of a 42 g protein bullet.  This way I am conserving it...  so tomorrow as I drink my grape or hawaiian punch, I will be getting in some protein and enjoy it all over again.  I am thinking they would be great in ice trays for popsicles... they have those popsicle molds at target!  Just might have to do it!
