i recently bought whey protein and have been experimenting mixing different foods in it to add even more protein.
Banana and milk tastes very good. But today, I found a combo I won't be using again!! I added cottage cheese thinking this would be good since one of my favorite snacks is fat free cottage cheese and peaches. It is HORRIBLE mixed into a protein drink !! LOL

I do have to say that getting 44 grams of protein didn't quite make it worth having to choke it down for!!

Live and learn!

Not as a shake, but I mix 1/2 c. cottage cheese with chocolate protein powder and 1/2 T. peanut butter and mix it up...it almost has a pasty texture. But it is yummy--it tastes like dessert. It is very thick and you have to eat it with a spoon. My favorite pre-bed snack. Honestly, you really don't know you're eating cottage cheese.

I guess my favorite is having the whey protein with a banana blended in.

I don't like that texture in a drink either. I think I tried it...once. Have you used plain yogurt in a shake? That's my standard. Usually with frozen berries, but banana works, too.

I haven't tried many variations since I only started Monday. After much agravation of trying to get the right ratio of prot/carb/fat, I decided a protein supplement was a good option for me.
