Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 I'm not Joni and I don't use Myoplex, but I have a few recipes that are good with a plain or vanilla protein powder. The one I use has virtually no carbs, so I use milk to mix, but if you normally use water that would probably work fine with these ideas. Anyway, add to the powder & liquid in the blender: Banana-Lime-Mint: 1/2 large banana, a squeeze of fresh lime juice and some fresh mint (you can use dried mint, but then it needs to " marinate " a bit), Splenda Canteloupe-Ginger: About 1/2 cup of cubed canteloupe and 1/8 tsp powdered ginger, sweeten with Splenda Strawberry-Almond-Mint: About 5 strawberries (I usually use frozen), mint, and sweeten with DaVinci Sugar Free Almond syrup. You will swear you're sitting in the breeze in North Africa listening to the trickle of a Moorish fountain. Peach Cobbler: Frozen peaches, cinnamon, DaVinci Vanilla syrup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 You just made me realize that I used to have tons more shake recipes in a 'stuff' folder on my desktop - but my harddrive died about a week ago and I lost ALOT of stuff on my computer - gone but not totally forgotten! One of my fave protein powders is Natures Best Isopure Locarb Chocolate - I mix a scoop of that with a cup of cold skim milk, some ice, lefover cold coffee(or use some instant coffee w/hot water to dissolve it), whirrrr it up and add in some fatfree hazlenut coffee creamer - better than a mocha from Starbucks - well nearly and alot less calories! ;-) I have those myoplex ones you mentioned on my website in the recipe section - you can just use a good protein powder of whatever flavor to replace it I found in most cases: http://www.geocities.com/jgrrl2/shakeit.html Check out your baking section, seasoning section in your grocery store - I have used lemon, vanilla, cherry, maple, and or mint flavorings in shakes. I got a few more good ideas from this site: http://www.physicalenhancement.com/store/article.php?articleID=50 And the 24hr Fitness site also has some good recipes to leave you drooling over: http://www.24hourfitness.com/html/nutrition/recipes/beverage/ Hope that gives you some ideas! <<joni>> *nothing tastes as good as being in shape feels* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 Oh boy - Joni - I tried your Starbucks-like recipe below last night for my last meal and yummmmm! It didn't quite get a shake consistency, but it made a very good frothy drink. It's the fat free hazlenut creamer that added just the right touch!
