Here is the recipe for the Orange Julius type protein shake that a couple of people requested. This shake is delicious, and only has 3 ingredients besides the ice. The calories and nutrition could change, depending on what kind of orange juice and protein powder you use. (I used Tropicana 100% All Natural, and Super Advanced Whey Protein in Vanilla.) I like this shake as a super quick breakfast or lunch.

Also, this website has some awesome, healthy recipes.

As soon as I figure out how to add a picture I'll add the nutritional info!

Let me know what you think :)

    Here we go. Just remember this CAN change depending on the type of OJ and Protein Powder you use.

    29 grams of sugar is the equvilant to 7 tsp of sugar . A can of soda has 39 grams of sugar . This drink is loaded in sugar try not to drink it !!!! Sugar is the devil I dont touch the stuff only use organic agave nector to sweeten up my recipes . Hope this helps but having a protein shake is great I drink them 2x a day but I add almond milk, a cup of spinich or u can add natural fruit like strawberries , blueberries half a bannana . More healthier more benificial = )

    If you used Tropicana 'Trop50' it would cut 12 g of sugar, and 60 cals. I just used what I happened to have in the fridge to make the nutrition label.

    It's the artificial sweeteners I try to stay away from. Eeeek.
