    I love my Biochem Natural Flavor whey protein. It is has virtually no taste and mixes amazing with just a shaker. It is also hormone and GMO free. Pretty "clean" for a protein powder and not too expensive. I either put it in a green smoothie (spinach, banana and flax seed) or just mix it with chocolate almond milk.

    I'll also plug its only 90 calories and 0 sugar for 20g protein ;) looove it!

    Try Cellucor confetti cake protein powder! You can seriously put it in just about anything and it's delish! Try mixing it with a few tbsp of egg whites a tbsp of gluten free flour and some almond milk, heat up a skillet and make a pancake with it. Then top it with walden farms pancake syrup and light cool whip... seriously amazing! And all together about 300 calories! You can use less flour and more protein powder if you want too!

    I've used a lot of them, flavor wise I prefer the 8-ball hpc3 vanilla swirl, but dissolving wise I haven't found anything that works as well as the whey made by isopure and it tastes good as well.

    I use the Jay Robb brand. Vitamin Shoppe and Krogers carry it. No sugar, low carb and two kinds available, egg and whey. 24grams of protein and VERY tasty. I use either unsweetened coconut or almond milk, and will add either fruit or powdered peanut butter (all the taste way less fat). If I blend with ice it really does taste like a fast food shake.
    I understand the posts about rather "chewing calories", but for me when I'm running out the door it's the best breakfast.

    My current favorite is PHD Diet Protein Belgian Chocolate.
    My blender makes short work of anything I put in it, so I like to get inventive with my protein!

    One of my favorite protein recipes for a pre-workout on a cold morning is a Protein chocolate cake!

    2 Scoops Protein, 180ml skimmed milk, 20g peanut butter (optional)
    Blend together, pour into a microwavable bowl.. microwave for two to three minutes then once hardened run a knife around the edge to loosen it.
    Transfer to another plate/bowl to cool (or as warm as you like to eat it!!)

    (pictured below, mine from this morning)

    Have a great day!

    This looks fantastic! I'm definitely going to have to try. Thanks!
