So I go running 5 out of 7 mornings, and have invested in some chocolate and strawberry protein powders for a good boost post run :)

I#ve never used it before, and am looking for some great recipes to use it in :)

all advice welcome!

    I order BSN protein powder from amazon.com - good price and follow some of the recipes from http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2007/06/my-favorite-protein-shake-recipes.html

    Do a seach on the blog - she does lots of neat creative and yummy things with the protein powder. I make a good protein ice cream if I need a sweet treat after dinner. My middle child loves the ice cream too!

    Dude i really cant stand anything protien powder wise except for chocolate lol

    I never use water that just sounds gross haha

    I always use a cup of fat free milk, scoop and a half of protien, and half a frozen banana. Tastes pretty dern yummy to me!!

    I guess its just a trial and error kind of thing lol
