I bought soy protein powder today and was hoping to gather some new recipes to use it with! If anyone has some recipes they would like to share, please do. I'll start the ball rolling with one of my own:

Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Protein Smoothie
1 medium banana
1 cup LF chocolate milk or chocolate soymilk
2 tbsp peanut butter
1-2 scoops soy or whey protein powder (as directed depending on brand)
ice (add to achieve desired consistency)
Blend all items together and enjoy!

    freeze your banana and other fruits and skip the ice cubes.... I also like using some lite fit low fat yogurt in my fruit smoothies with milled flax seed

    I like the Tropicana 50 with vanilla protein powder, 1c almond milk. It tastes like an orange julious. Chocolate with 1tsp peanut butter, 1 bananna, almond milk.

    I have one every morning for breakfast - I've never been able to eat first thing in the morning.

    I use Vanilla Designer Whey (100 Cal)
    vanilla almond milk (unsweetened - 40 cal)
    1/2 a medium banana
    1/2 cup frozen blueberries

    I put the fruit into my magic bullet cups the night before and throw it in the freezer. In the morning, I add the milk and protein powder in and blend - makes it more thick like a milk shake!

    I recently found unsweetened chocolate almond milk - going to experiment with peanut butter and bananas and maybe some strawberries or raspberries...MMMMM!

    you should try different types of protein powders on a regular basis because too much soy protein isn't good for you try whey protein or vegan hemp or brown rice protein powders as a change up now and then.
