    I'm not going to read all of the nasty comments which I'm sure are there as they always are with Shakeology posts, I'll just help out as I can. I also don't pay for it so I don't need the lecture! :)

    I make vanilla Shakeology waffles on Sundays and bring them to work to last me for a week + for breakfasts. I know exactly what you are saying about the Vanilla flavor and this is the only way I can eat it. Whole wheat flour, honey, cinnamon, eggs, milk, mashed bananas, PB2, vanilla, baking powder, unsweetened applesauce, 2 scoops of vanilla shakeology. Put it all in your waffle maker and enjoy the goodness. It makes 4-5 waffles depending on the size of your waffle maker.

    I like to add 1/2 frozen dark cherries, 1-2 Tbs Chia seeds, small handfull spinach, and 3-5 slices frozen peaches. My kids love this combo and it gets some extra greens in there with the spinach!

    Vanilla add unsweetened cocoa, pb powder or peanut butter, vanilla unsweetened almond milk and coconut flakes. :) love shakeology, people are delusional and think it's only for protein when it's not, no protein shake is a meal replacement or has half of the things in shakeology and it doesn't have all the artificial sugar. And it's doesn't smell awful life the whey protein powders

    Where do you get this shakeology from? I've heard about those VI shakes but they are awfully expensive.

    From beachbody and yes it's a lot of money but if u break it down, it's only about $4.00 per meal. I love it! Helps my sugar cravings and gives me energy. Also helps with appetite cravings.

    I can sell you an empty cup for $3.00 that you can put stuff in to make your smoothie. In fact, it will require less expense on your part to make the smoothie as well, since you won't have to add all the extra ingredients and calories just to cover up the crappy taste of Shakeology. I mean, why get ripped-off by a dishonest Beachbody salescoach when you can come to me, right?

    Your empty cup theory will be expensive, your getting everything for $4 for meal replacements and vitamins idk why people bash it, especially when they don't know facts about the product. I have people I coach for FREE ! Imagine that !

    Have you tried a tablespoon or two of natural peanut butter? That might help!

    Who cares if she buys it or gets it for free. She was asking for ideas. Geez. Try buying extracts. I use coconut extract and some pineapple = pina colada win win.

    Exactly! Some people geez. Thanks I'll try that I do like tropical fruits so maybe this will be good. :)

    I tried almond butter but it didn't really help hide the funky bitter tastes from the vanilla.

    anyone have any good Shakeology recipes for the Vanilla flavor? I can't seem to find anything to add to my vanilla packets to hide whatever that nasty after taste :/ I've already tried a banana and vanilla protein powder. And my second attempt was adding unsweetened almond milk and almond butter. The 2nd attempt hide the gross after taste some but still not enough for me to force myself to drink it. I like the other Shakeology flavors but vanilla is just gross!

    almond milk, peanut butter and ice - LOTS of ice --> it tastes like French vanilla ice cream then. Made any other way, I'm not a fan of the vanilla flavour either. The chocolate however :)
