    I am happy to post the first protein shake recipe... Because this is my absolute favorite! I could live off of it.

    1 med banana-preferrably frozen
    2TBSP of Peanut butter-I use regular creamy Jif
    1 scoop of Muscle Milk 100%whey vanilla protein powder
    8oz of almond Breeze unsweetened Almond milk
    add a little but of water to make it thinner.

    Add to the blender-I use the Bella-knock off of the Majic Bullet.

    470 cals
    40g Carbs
    22g of Fat
    36g of PROTEIN
    6g of Fiber

    There are ways to make lighter... Use PB2-peanut butter powder...water instead of milk, and/or reduced fat PB.

    Enjoy! It is YUMMMMY!!

    The Best Overall Tasting Homemade Protein Shake

    Ingredients:  16 oz skim milk  2 cups no-fat cottage cheese  3 scoops Optimum Nutrition Whey Protein Powder (vanilla)  1/2 cup non-fat, reduced-sugar vanilla yogurt scoop of your favorite fruit  Splenda or Sweet-n-Low to taste (about 2 packets)  Handful of ice Directions: Blend together and chill. Makes 3 two-cup servings. Guzzle for an awesome post-workout shake. The high-glycemic-value carbs spike insulin to deliver protein to your muscles. Add dry oats for more complex carbs, and add more cottage cheese to boost the protein! Add more milk if the mix is too thick. Nutritional Information for 1 Serving: Calories = 414 Protein = 40 grams Carbs = 26 grams Fat = 2 gram

    Then I use vanilla Body Fortress Protein Powder. I use how ever much ice my cup I am going to use will hold. I then blend all together. I Like more coffee flavor less sweet. The powder I use is listed as Body Fortress - Super Advanced Whey Protein - Vanilla Corrected* in the data base. I only use 1/2 a scoop. Again I like the coffee flavor.

    Any recipes for a non dairy, fruits and vegis smoothie?
  • Warning: MAKES A LOT but we drink smoothies all day, usually, when we make them.

    Roommate's Nagging
    - 2 CUP (ice cube tray frozen) unsweetened coconut milk
    - 1 SCOOP Body Fortress Super Advanced Whey Protein (strawberry)
    - 2 CUPS baby spinach
    - 1/2 CUP celery (filler!)
    - 1 CUP green grapes
    - 1 CUP kiwi
    It's a yummy, green smoothie!

    Off Day Random-ness
    - 1/2 CUP strawberries
    - 1/2 CUP blueberries
    - 1 CUP unsweetened almond milk
    - 1/2 CUP kale
    - 1 CUP spinach
    - SCOOP Body Fortress Super Advanced Whey Protein (vanilla)

    Apple Pie
    - 2 CUPS sliced Fuji/Granny Smith/Golden Delicious/Other apples
    - 2 CUPS spinach
    - 1 TBSP (VARIES!) cinnamon
    - 1 SCOOP Body Fortress Super Advanced Whey Protein (vanilla)
    - 1/2 CUP organic/pure apple juice
    - 1/2 CUP unsweetened coconut milk
    The flavor will VARY depending on apples used and cinnamon used. It may take a while to perfect.

    Note: depending on your blender's power, you may need to add/take some water/liquid to these. I don't recommend (even though it is healthier) frozen fruit unless noted. You want to try and use the natural juices of the fruits, themselves.

    My roommate and I usually do smoothies if we are REALLY watching what we're eating/need to fill up our tummies so we don't munch. Thus, sometimes we detox with these for the day.

    I have tons more if you're interested :D. If anyone uses these, let me know how it goes!

    EDIT: My roommate is lactose and tolerant so no dairy!

    Hi!

    I use The Virgin Diet protein powder, it is made from a vegetable mix of pea/rice protein. It comes in Chocolate, Vanilla and Chai.

    If you like chocolate:

    Chocolate covered strawberry shake:

    1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
    6-7 frozen, unsweetened strawberries
    (mix until strawberries are blended in a magic bullet)
    Add:
    1 tsp chia seeds
    1 tsp Hershey's dark chocolate powder
    1 scoop JJ Virgin Chocolate protein powder

    Enjoy!

    PS- PB2 tastes horrible, even mixed with my usual chocolate protein powder. Buy it to try it, but be prepared to return it.
