I admit it, i'm having a love afair with my magic bullet lil' blender!

Loving my morning smoothies :) I know alot of people put protein powder in there but I've never tried any...got any good recommendations?

I would really like to be able to use something I don't have to go to a specialty shop and spend a fortune on too.

THANKS!

    I use one or two scoops of GNC Pro Performance 100% Whey Protein powder (chocolate) with 1 frozen banana and water in the large cup for the Magic Bullet. I use the Criss cross blades, not the flat ones. It is so yummy!! Tastes like a chocolate banana milkshake...no lie! Its my motivator to work out hard. If I dont have a good hard workout I dont allow myself the yummy shake!!! lol.

    I recerntly fell in love with my magic bullet mini blender as well!! If anyone has suggestions for a non flavored protein powder that'd be great, I love fruit smoothies but don't like vanilla and am not very into adding chocolate to the smoothies.

    thanks!

    I'll admit, the shakeology is expensive, but like most supplements...you usually get what you pay for. Check out sites like http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/ :)

    I'm also a morning smoothie lover. The main ingredients in mine are nf yogurt, frozen strawberries and a banana, (sometimes other fruit), but the other ingredient I add is lots of spinach (usually about 2 cups). It gives it kind of a strange color, but you can't really taste the spinach at all and it adds lots of iron and vitamins.

    Now some people won't go for this, but I use egg beaters. It has protein without all the calories. Some people don't like the raw business. But they are pasteurized, so I feel safe about it. I add a touch of cinnamon and/or a spec of vanilla. I don't like the flavor of most protein powders.

    DISCLAIMER: Eat raw egg product at your own risk. ;) Don't want the mods getting mad at me for posting "dangerous" advice. ;)
