Jazzing up vanilla protein powder

MozzarellaSheep

Recently, I decided that I was undoubtedly bored with my vanilla protein shake mix. But with a Costco tub of it.. what was I to do?
This is what I came up with:
_________________________________________
Pistachio Creme' Shake
(So far, this is my favorite!!)

1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
1 tablespoon pistachio sugar free pudding mix
1 cup milk or water
_________________________________________

Strawberry Cheesecake Shake

1 scoop vanilla protein powder
1 tablespoon sugar free cheesecake pudding mix
4 large frozen strawberries
1 cup milk or water
_________________________________________

Orange Creme Shake

1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
1 snack cup of mandarin oranges
1 cup milk or water
_________________________________________

Apple Pie Shake

1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup milk or water

I have my own version of the apple pie one, definitely my fave. Another favorite of mine is vanilla protein, almond milk, peanut butter, and a banana. It's DELICIOUS.

Thanks for sharing. I think I might get me some. I never knew where I could purchase it and I shop at Costco's all the time!

I make a "Orange Creme Shake" with orange psyllium powder (2 tsp) and a scoop of vanilla protein.

Tops up fiber and protein at once.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana:
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
Milk
Half a banana
2 tbsp chocolate PB2
Ice

So freaking good. ETA I've made it with chocolate, but the taste is a bit off. Vanilla works better.

Also, because I have no problem eating pumpkin year round:

Pumpkin Protein Shake:
Vanilla protein powder
Milk
1/2 cup pumpkin
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp brown sugar
Ice


Haven't ever used pudding mix, I'll definitely be trying the strawberry one...

Pumpkin tastes really good in vanilla.

I recently had one with strawberries, banana, pineapple and toasted coconut with almond milk and ice. Kind of tasted like a banana split smoothie!

Bump, all sound delish! Thanks for sharing

Anything to help Vanilla!

DanaLeo33

Pineapple and coconut extract - piña colada

Sugar free Toriani syrups..there are sooooo many flavors!!!

Instant coffee & cacao powder - mocha (or just instant coffee or espresso, or use cooled coffee as your liquid)

Or use Cooled herbal teas as your liquid (like chai)

Also, you can add a handful of baby spinach to anything and you won't even taste it.

I like to add PB2, a frozen banana, some almond milk, and a medjool date. A lot of times I only use a splash of almond milk and keep it super thick like ice cream, perfect dessert after my evening workouts.

I always buy Chocolate PB protein because I think "eww vanilla is so bland, who can drink that stuff?!?"

now I get it you smartie pants! I'm about 4/5 done my ChocolatePB protein and so sick of it! Vanilla is next! Thanks so much - Life saver!

I add vanilla protein powder to oatmeal. It's really good with 1 cup of oatmeal (cooked in water), 1/2 cup berries (I use strawberries and blueberries), and 1 scoop of the protein powder. Sometimes I also add in cinnamon. The protein powder sweetens the oatmeal enough that I don't have to use sugar or other sweeteners.
