Meal replacement shakes

What is a good meal replacement shake I can buy to make at home??? & can I blend fruit into those if I choose?

If you're already at home, you can make anything you like. You can tweak any recipe as you like. Why would you like to replace a meal?

Visit your local store and look at the protein shakes and see what you like. I like Pure Protein Chocolate at Target or Walmart. I make it with skim milk for better taste and more protein. I would eat the fruit separately, since a blender might not chop the fruit enough.

Try a protein bar first. You might buy a whole $19 container of protein powder and not like it.

It really depends what your objectives are, what you would put in.
But most are based on some kind of protein powder, to keep you feeling full. I use Impact Whey from MyProtein, but I'm in the UK and the available brands are different to the US.

But for inspiration, have a look here: http://www.precisionnutrition.com/super-shake-creation-infographic

Be a bit careful though, as the calories can really add up if you don't watch it!
(Unsweetened almond milk is your friend... creamier texture than making with water, but low calorie.)

Are you looking for a true meal replacement with a full range of macros, or to simply increase your protein intake?
