I have been throwing Flax seeds in there...anyone have something more beneficial health wise?? It would be great if it promotes a weight loss boost(ya..ya...I know thats probably a long shot) I gotta try at least..:laugh:

Any ideas...would be great :flowerforyou:

    My favorites for vanilla: extra vanilla, frozen strawberries, a bunch of cinnamon.
    For chocolate: good-quality cocoa powder, and PB2 or (again) a bunch of cinnamon
    For either: a half-cup of nonfat Greek yogurt.

    I always buy the vanilla.

    I've added:

    -Frozen berries
    -Ground flaxseeds
    -Almond butter
    -Peanut butter
    -About an ounce of coffee (just changes the flavor)\
    -Greek Yogurt
    -Cottage Cheese

    Raw spinach! It sounds weird, but it adds very little flavor (especially if you're adding strong flavors like peanut butter or banana)while adding lots of nutrients! I don't mind a little "green" flavor myself, so I even add raw kale or chard if I have it around.
