Hm. I think it is absolutely delicious.
I had to screw it up somehow .. or maybe my protein powder doesnt mix well. I used 0% greek yogurt. The powder never really mixed .. it just created clumps of yogurt with powder on the outside like a donut.
Am I supposed to add something else?2 -

Did you stir it well with a spoon? Do you love the flavor of your protein powder? Do you like 0% greek yogurt? I love them both. I use either the PEScience snickerdoodle powder or the BSN peanut butter cookie. I'll also sometimes add a bit of stevia or a 0 calorie flavor drop from My Protein.
Sometimes I don't mind the cakiness...especially with the BSN powder because it's a little fattier and it's just tasty. I could eat it straight.1 -

I did mix with a spoon but it didnt really "mix" it just sort of stuck to the yogurt. While i like the powder when it mixes with milk, the dry taste was pretty terrible. ha.0 -

Eh, maybe it's not for you then. I'm eating a whole tub of fage with cocoa powder at the moment. Ah...taste the macros.4 -
I like powdered PB and 1 tablespoon of fruit spread with my yogurt. It tastes just like a PB & J. Yum!5
-
Vanilla protein powder, blueberries and fage 0%.... mmmmmmm.....
I also love PB2 and fage....
Brb, have to run to grocery store now!2 -
Powdered PB and Fage YES. I don't like PB2 though. I don't know why it's the most popular brand. Really not the best.1

You didn't mix it enough.... Give it time! Add a splash of water or milk, that helps.4 -
Dig a hole in the yogurt with a spoon (or eat a bit from the middle), fill the hole with protein powder and stir. Can be messy, but delicious0

I agree, it's much better in ice cream or make a pudding out of it my adding 1.5 oz of milk for every 15 grams of protein powder.0 -
I can't even drink mine without a chaser. But I use Ancient Nutrition "Bone Broth" for Muscle Recovery. It tastes exactly what imagine chicken bones/congealed chicken bone broth would taste like. Except when shaken with just water, it turns into slimy foam and stays that way. I avoid whey and soy....but reading this makes me wonder if it's worth it. *shudder*0

I'm not sure what you did wrong but it's been a delicious meal I eat near daily. About 1.5 servings of greek PLAIN yogurt (I use chobani), and about 3/4 serving of vanilla protein powder. Mix it really well with a spoon then I top with some fresh or frozen fruit.
The only way I can think of it turning out bad is you overdo it with the protein powder. Don't give up on it yet!2 -

That's what I was thinking
Try using a little less
I've used too much and didn't mix it well and the result was not pleasant
I prefer using powdered PB mixed into Greek personally, which is another option
It can also vary drastically based on brand/flavor.1 -
As others have said, you probably used too much protein powder. Also, casein tends to be more clumpy than whey.0
-
PB2 mixed into greek yogurt or cottage cheese served over fruit is good.

nah, i agree it's disgusting.
That's why i keep it simple with some fresh fruit or a drizzle of honey. If i'm feeling extra rambunctious i'll use greek yogurt on top of french toast.

I have the same issue with putting protein powder into oatmeal. It just never works for me and is super gross. So much so that the only way I will consume protein powder is in a coffee or a smoothie.
