Protein Cheesecake ideas?

I have been scouring the internet for protein cheesecake recipes but they mostly require weird/obscure ingredients that i cant get my hands on.
I have what i need for a crust.
Here's what I have for the ingredients:
Vanilla whey
Greek Yogurt
Cream Cheese
Milk
Eggs
Vanilla
Lemon
Berries
I cannot for the life of me find a recipe that uses the ingredients i have.
Does anyone have experience making recipes like this that they'd want to share?

You could do this one without the crust and replace strawberries with blueberries:

I haven't made this recipe but I like the site and have made recipes from here before.
ETA: this one looks good too:

and it looks like if you put cheesecake into their search a ton of options come up.0 -

Yes! I saw this one!
The only thing is i have whole eggs and i'm not sure i want to waste 6-7 of them just to get egg whites only. =/ Also, I have protein powder in 30 grams, so i think i'd need two? I dont have a measuring cup with "cups" on it.
I live outside the US so yeah... kind of hard to get my hands on things like liquid eggwhites. Unless there's a converter to use whole eggs?
I feel like i'm making this too complicated.0 -
Here's the farmer's wife trick. Save the egg yolks to make Hollandaise Sauce.0

Naw, not overcomplicating at all! I modify stuff all the time based on what I have--and I HATE wasting! Id say you might also look at traditional cheesecake recipes and see what to tweak that works for you. I think ProteinPow tends to do mostly egg white, for cheesecake, since I dont really make cheesecake Im not sure if it is because that is what is needed in a cheesecake recipe or the authors preference but by looking at a few traditional recipes you might have a better idea of how to tweak the Protein Pow one.
