After I cook them I mash them with pureed white beans, a little butter, and depending on my mood either some garlic and pepper or a little cinnamon. Mashed potatoes is a comfort food for me, but when I add the white beans I feel like at least I am getting some good protein! Thank you for posting this question--I now have a…

Just a suggestion--see if you can get a few samples of different protein powders and try several. It took me many tries to find one that I not only liked but that I could process well.
