Poll: What is your favorite Protein Shake
My new way to get protein powder in is "Protein Low Carb Flourless Chocolate Cake" as posted by Kayla B on the DS forum.
My version:
1 scoop protein powder (Champion Pure Whey Stack chocolate)
1 T cocoa powder
3 T oil
1 T vanilla extract
Splenda to taste.
tiny bit of water to make batter soupy
If the batter tastes good the cake will taste good.
Nuke for 35 seconds.
I top it with a little CarbSmart icecream or Rediwhip.

Click Vanilla Latte and Max/Ultimate(chocolate and strawberry) are my favorite protein powders, Pure Protein cookies and Cream is my favorite RTD.

I don't do protein shakes. My surgeon told me not to drink my calories after the first few recovery weeks. However, I do buy Unjury powdered protein. I enrich my Greek yogurt with it. I put it in sugar-free hot chocolate and coffee too.

When I was drinking them, GNC Banana Cream protein powder was my thing. I made it with water & milk. It tastes (to me) like a banana fudgecicle.
These days I don't drink shakes anymore as I can't tolerate them (tastewise), but I do drink Click Vanilla Latte and I don't even consider it a "protein", though I do track the grams of protein it contains. I use about 1/3 of a scoop with my coffee and may do that a few times a day. It's one of my guilty pleasures - Click rocks!

I use, 1 scoop of whatever "run of the mill" vanilla protein powder with 1 scoop of About Time cinnamon swirl. I put "a good swig" of Torani french vanilla SF syrup, a teaspoon of generic french vanilla SF pudding powder, Splenda to taste, 6oz water, 1 oz skim milk, and as much ice as I can fit in the mixing cup. I blend it all together and it makes a wonderful vanilla/cinnamon slushie that I scoop out witha spoon for the first half and then drink the rest.
P.S. that's when I'm not broke and can afford to order the About Time. If I'm out I use just a pinch of ground cinnamon. While that isn't half as good as what I said above, it works in a pinch!

My kick lately is 6 oz nonfat vanilla chobani greek yogurt, 8 oz silk light vanilla soy milk and 2 tablespoons of PB2, and ice. It comes out to just over 200 calories and like 27.5 grams of protein.
