    I do one very similar.
    1 scoop chocolate protein powder
    1 frozen banana
    1 tbsp peanut butter
    1/2 cup milk

    It's delicious and tastes like one of those chocolate covered frozen bananas you can buy at amusement parks!!!

    I do one with vanilla protein, FF Frozen yogurt, cinnamon, and applesauce. It's an apple pie shake.

    Try PB2 instead of Peanut Butter. http://www.bellplantation.com/ They press peanut oil and then sell the dried stuff that's left over from pressing-- it's only 45 cals for two tbs and, fat free, and tastes just like peanut butter. Even my picky boyfriend LOVES it in shakes- you get protein and fiber and it's not "fake peanut butter" like other products. I actually like it mixed with water to a peanut butter consistancy and put on a PB&J, but I can see how someone might gripe that it's "just not the same" in that application because of the mouthfeel. But, in a shake, I dare anyone to tell the difference and you save more than 100 cals for 2 TBS (and who can have just two tbs of the real stuff?)

    No, I don't work for the company or anything. I just love the stuff! Don't get the chocolate kind, though, just stick with the plan.

    Another shake I love is vanilla protein powder, water or milk, ice, and a half a cup of canned pumpkin- not "pumpkin pie filling" just pumpkin. Add some cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and it tastes just like a pumpkin pie, plus it's got loads of fiber.
