I make Greek yogurt, and end up with nice pure liquid whey from straining the yogurt. Anyone know of any good recipes or uses for this stuff?

It's loaded with protein, amino acids and vitamins. Seems a shame to throw it down the drain.

    ive never used it but i guess that sticking it in oatmeal would give u a nice balanced breakfast or blitzing it with fruit/and or veg for a twist on the typical protein shake. Let us know what you end up doing and how it was! x

    I have no idea how it tastes on its own like that. With that in mind, here are some quick ideas:

    * Add vanilla to it for flavoring, then use it the same as other whey protein supplements are used
    * Put it into oatmeal or other foods as Tiny suggested
    * Add it to a fruit smoothie / blender recipe

    12lbs milk=1 pound of cheese. Whey is a byproduct of this process. Yuck! notmilk.com
