Protein shakes
 
I've been having trouble eating enough protein lately so I bought some vanilla flavor protein powder. I've only made a few shakes so far but it actually tastes pretty good.

Yesterday I made a shake with 1 scoop vanilla powder, 1 cup milk, 1 cup frozen berries, .5 cup cooked oatmeal (leftover from breakfast), half of a frozen banana, and a handful of ice cubes.

Today I made an AWESOME shake with 1 scoop vanilla, 1 cup milk, 2T peanut butter, 1T hot cocoa powder, 1T flax, and a handful of ice cubes. It tasted just like a peanut butter cup!

Anyone else have experience with this stuff? I figured I'd buy vanilla first since it could be mixed with a lot of flavors but maybe next time I'll get chocolate. :)

I love chocolate. I drink a scoop after every workout.

Watch out which ones you buy. I was getting a small bottle at the grocery store, but thought it would be better to get a less expensive brand at Walmart. The one I got at Walmart is gross! Which is a total pain in the butt, cuz it has twice as many servings! It's going to take forever to drink it all!!

I bought a big bag of EAS vanilla pretty cheap at Sam's Club before I left for Canada. Maybe check there or somewhere like Costco if you have it :)

I haven't had a protein shake, but I just popped in here to say that the one you described (with the peanut butter) has me doing the Homer Simpson drool :joker: I'm going to have to try it one day!
