    @OP - Great recipe idea that I definitely want to try. Also, when your profile pic is very small, it looks like you have a pet lion :)

    Wasn't sure if I was going to like protein shakes....so I went in my husband's stash of Whey Protein...he had bought chocolate... not the tastiest stuff I have ever tried...so after several tries I found a way I enjoy it...

    1 scoop of chocolate protein (120 cals)
    1 cup of coffee cooled (0 cals)
    1/4 cup 2% milk (30 cals)
    1 tsp Splenda
    Ice

    Total Cals : 150 cals

    I mix it in my Magic Bullet.... it makes it nice and smooth. The protein fills me up, I get my cup of java... it actually taste pretty good.... a great way to start off my day !

    pudding is processed isnt it? Im just asking because Im trying to eat clean but looking for protein shake ingredients with low sugar. I usually make pina colada shakes but the banana and frozen pineapple add so much sugar.

    I would say yes because if you look at the ingredients - it even has cocoa processed with alkali - I just did a google, cause I was curious too.

    The only thing I know for lower sugar is frozen fruit that would naturally be lower in sugar or just plain water and ice. I add a litle instant coffee to my chocolate to make it like a frozen coffee drink. I don't usually worry about the sugar if its in real food like fruit.

    Can you make this in a blender cup? If so I'm making it with my chocolate protein powder and vanilla pudding :)

    After my Work out I made this up for myself (I didn't have any protein powder on hand):


    1 Cup frozen fruit (I used Dole mango/pineapple) or replace with 1/2 frozen banana
    1/2 Cup fat free plain yogurt
    1 Tablespoon raw natural Wheat Germ
    2 Tablespoons Cold Milled Golden Flax Seed
    1 Tablespoon Clove Honey
    1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

    Put all in Food Processor or Blender to mix. Pour in a glass and enjoy!
