    Peanut Butter Banana Protein Shake
    1 scoop vanilla protein powder
    1 frozen banana
    1 tbs PB2
    1/2 cup milk
    4-6 ice cubes

    Those are my favorite protein shakes at the moment! I also use vanilla protein powder to make homemade protein bars and muffins.

    This sounds amazing!! I LOVE PB2... How do you mix it in "homemade bars and muffins" ??

    That shake is awesome!

    Google Jaime Eason's protein bar recipes. She has a lot of good ones, my favorite is her cinnamon swirl protein bars (my husband thinks they taste like his mom's homemade coffee cake) and the chocolate protein bars. Here are a few others that I like:

    Banana Chocolate Protein Muffins
    Ingredients:
    •1 Cup oatmeal (not instant)
    •2 scoops of chocolate protein
    •2 egg whites
    •1 banana
    •1 TBSP of unsweetened applesauce
    •1 tsp of baking powder

    Directions:
    1.Preheat oven @ 350F
    2.Mix -Everything goes into 1 bowl.
    3.Fill each muffin tin halfway up
    4.Bake for about 10-12 minutes


    Banana Bread Protein Muffins
    3/4 cup Ripe banana (about 1 large banana)
    3/4 cup Egg whites
    1/2 cup Plain low fat greek yogurt (I used plain Chobani yogurt)
    3/4 cup Oats (use gluten free if sensitive to gluten)
    2 scoops Vanilla protein powder (I used Designer Whey™, or you could use any flavor you would like!)
    12-14 packets Stevia (or 1/2 cup sweetener of choice)
    1 tsp Baking powder
    1 tsp Baking soda
    1/2 tsp Cinnamon

    Put all ingredients into a food processor or blender until smooth. Fill 12 muffin tins and bake at 350 for 15-17 minutes.

    There are a lot more ideas on the forums here and on pinterest!

    Thank you!

    There are some truly nasty vanilla favors out there. If you already are used to the taste of Greek yogurt, then it's probably the powder you chose. You can cover a lot up with spices -- cinnamon and nutmeg are a good combo. A chai spic blend is also delicious. I usually use a little cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cardamom.

    I eat 1 cup quick oats oatmeal with fresh blueberries, cinnamon, splenda, and 1/2 scoop vanilla muscle milk protein powder. I feel this is a good meal to add protein to my oatmeal which is carb dense.

    My recipe for vanilla protein whey powder shake is good with 373 calories. High protein, potassium, calcium.
    1 cup vanilla yogurt
    1 cup plain soy milk
    1 banana
    1 scoop protein powder
    1 cup ice

    I tried plain yogurt, blackberries and wheatgerm this morning and had to add some stevia sweetner.

    I get all unflavoured stuff, and mix it with squash or Fruit Juice. I never user milk as no need to as I eat meals with all my shakes.

    I like anything but vanilla. I don't think that's a problem. I buy strawberry. I buy chocolate. I buy double chocolate. I buy peanut butter. I just don't buy vanilla. I don't like it and that's fine by me. I shouldn't have to doctor it up to keep it down.

    8oz Almond Milk
    1 small banana
    1 tablespoon of jello instant pudding banana flavor sugar free
    5 Vanilla Wafers

    Butterfinger Shake
    1 scoop PP
    8oz Almond Milk
    1 tablespoon of peanut butter
    1 tablespoon of jello instant pudding chocolate flavoring sugar free
    1 tablespoon of jello instant pudding butterscotch flavoring sugar free

    Pina Colada
    1.5 scoop PP
    1 11.2oz Naked Coconut Water
    1/2 - 1 cup of chopped pinapples with juice
    2 tablespoons of shredded coconut

    Enjoy!
