It sounds pretty good to me. I would die tho if I put that many carbs in me at one sitting. If I were to make it, I think I would leave out the biscuit mix. But then that is just me. Carbs can trigger cravings, and breads are one of my weaknesses, so I try to avoid them for the most part.
I even use a leaf of lettuce for the "bread" for my cheeseburger. Its actually quite yummy!

Borrowed from Pam T. She has some good sounding recipes.
Caramel Apple Protein Cider
2 cups non-fat powdered milk
1 1/2 cups vanilla protein powder (equal to 6 scoops)
1/2 cup Splenda
6 pkts sugar free Apple Cider mix
1/2 box sugar free butterscotch dry pudding mix (equal to approx 3 tablespoons)
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon nutmeg
Combine all ingredients together and mix well and store in an airtight container. When you're ready to make a mug of cider, here's how:
Add 1/2 cup of mixture to mug. Add a splash of cold water and mix well until you have a smooth paste with no lumps. Slowly add ho****er and continue mixing to eliminate any lumps. I have large mugs so I used about 10-12oz of water per batch. If you have smaller mugs, then reduce the amount of dry mix.
If you want to mix your drink the "automated" way (like I do), here's how. Add 1/2c mixture to a blender jar and add the splash of cold water. Turn on the blender on low and let it mix and then slowly add ho****er from the tea kettle while the blender is still whirling. Pour into a mug and enjoy.

I also like to make protein malt-o-meal. I take 1/2 cup water, dash of salt, Mix in 1/2 cup powdered milk. This should be made in at least a 2 cup size bowl, it expands during cooking. Add 4and a half teaspoons of malt-o-meal or cream of wheat cereal, stir and cook in microwave for 1 minute. Stir and continue to cook, stir every 30 seconds till consistency you like. Add 1 tsp margarine and enjoy. This had 15-16 grams of protein and sticks with you a while, make a little thinner for pureed stage, thicker for later.
I also pureed no sugar added peach slice or two with cottage cheese, another soothing food. Hope this helps.
