I cannot seem to find the right blend of ingredients to make my protein shake taste good and less grainy. I bought the vegan protein power and got some almond milk. I mean, it was good but it was REALLY chalky.. what do you guys put in your shake?

    I like blending with ice. But usually shakes just don't fill me up so I add my protein powder to oatmeal or yogurt and eat it that way.

    One of my favourite:
    3/4cup Almond milk
    20grams Vanilla or any flavour protein powder
    75grams Frozen ripe banana
    3/4cup Kale (torn into small pieces, no stems. I freeze mine)
    1/2Tbsp Chia seeds
    1/2Tbsp Flaxseed, ground or whole

    Blend it all. If you don't have frozen bananas or kale, toss in some ice ;)

    My favorite protein smoothie is chocolate/banana/peanut butter. I make one most days of the week. It's seriously yummy and it keeps me full.

    It's made with:

    - A scoop of chocolate protein powder
    - A whole frozen banana
    - Peanut Butter
    - Chocolate unsweetened almond milk
    - A handful of greens (whatever I'm having for the week...spinach, kale, chard etc. I can't taste it)

    I also add things like collagen powder, chia seeds etc.

    I put mine in yoghurt too. Or use it to make protein pancakes.

    I make a smoothie and add the protein powder to that. Or "overnight oats" (oatmeal, powder, milk, and maybe a couple other things for flavor, let sit overnight).
