    I just bought Jillian Michaels Vanilla Cream -- can you say gross? I can. Gross.
    I normally buy AMP Whey in Chocolate from GNC. I'm going to go back to that brand after I choke down this JM stuff,

    I normally throw PB and a half a frozen banana with 1/2 c skim milk. It's pretty good!

    I LOVE these! (I add a scoop of Vanilla Protein Powder, and leave the sugar out altogether)

    Oh that's funny - my first thought was - "about 10 pounds of back fat" LOL

    For me - frozen strawberries, dash of blueberries, OJ, yogurt and a smidge of protein powder - nothing cool but tasty for breakfast!

    I make a smoothie with milk, yogurt, frozen fruit and a scoop of protein powder. I like unflavored protein powder, all the flavored ones I have tried are way too sweet for me.

    If I use chocolate protein: soy milk, ice, flax oil, ff plain yogurt, and either pb, coco, or a banana.
    If I use banana protein: milk, yogurt, flax oil, banana, or other fruit
    If I use mint chocolate protein: milk, plain yogurt, flax oil, sometimes a banana, pb, or a scoop of chocolate protein.
    If I use vanilla protein: milk, flax oil, yogurt, and either peaches, mango, banana, blueberries, coco, coffee extract, or nuts and some maple syrup :-p

    Designer Whey Protein Powder- Chocolate, 1 scoop.
    PB2 Peanut Butter Powder, 2 tbsp.
    Almond Breeze Unsweetened Chocolate Milk, 8 oz.
    1 semi-frozen banana
    Cinnamon, 1 tsp.
    Natural Unsweetened Cocoa Powder, 1 tsp.

    (As you can see, I like chocolate)

    I vary up the fruit, sometimes bananas, sometimes strawberries. Sometimes I omit the cinnamon or the peanut butter powder. It all depends on what I am craving!

    I usually use Optimum Nutrition extreme milk chocolate whey, a banana and 1% milk. If I'm trying to up the calories to make it more like a meal, I'll add in a tbsp or two of pb. Sometimes I also use dark chocolate almond milk.

    I love this one!

    1 scoop 100% natural whey protein (chocolate flavor)
    1 tbs all natural (no salt added) peanut butter
    4 icecubes
    8oz water

    Blend until creamy on high (or whatever your processer/food processor grinds ice best at) and enjoy. This is bomb.com! Nummy peanutbutter cup flavor and only around 180 cal if you get low cal protein. Great post workout too!

    I use Isopure Zero Creamy Vanilla (No carbs, no sugars). I like to add non-fat yogurt or greek yogurt and strawberries, blueberries, and PB* . . . makes it taste like a PB& J. Or sometimes I do cinnamon and apples to make an apple pie shake. I have also done orange to make like a Creamsicle type shake.

    *You could also substitute the peanut butter with raw almonds or almond butter to still get the nutty taste

    I usually use 1/2 dropper of Liquid Stevia and a little bit of Trader Joes Pure Bourbon Vanilla to add a little more taste.
