Here's a Shake idea, what's yours?

tarab21 Posts: 508 Joined: 2003/03/31	2003/04/29, 08:27 PM I made a great shake today with 1/2 cup each canteloupe, honey dew melon, watermelon...1/2 cup fat free vanilla yogurt, and about a cup of peach iced tea... stick all the ingredients in the blender for a minute...and a fruity shake with protien from the yogurt. Anyone else have any shake ideas?

Sometimes I even take it with fish oil..... (o; -------------- - Nina :o) Les Victoires éternelles sont celles du coeur.

kirby00 Posts: 238 Joined: 2002/11/05	2003/05/01, 12:41 PM My "standard" is pretty easy - ~1 c. skim milk (or less 2% if we're at my bf's house, then there's some water added) 1 scoop vanilla whey protein small handful of frozen berries (make it cold and add a nice taste too) I have a little electric mixer that works really well. Gets it a little "frothy" at the top :) - I highly suggest getting one of these. I was using my big blender until my bf got me a hand one - so much easier to clean!

mackfactor Posts: 766 Joined: 2002/10/17	2003/05/01, 05:30 PM I got this from a poster on another board, Johnka. 1 cup ice .5 cup cottage cheese .5 cup milk or water 1-2 scoops chocolate protein A dash of splenda The stuff tastes almost like a frosty from Wendy's. I add a tablespoon of cocoa powder as well to make it a little more chocolatey. I'm experimenting with using a couple tablespoons of the fat free/sugar free Jell-O pudding mixes as flavoring in my shakes as suggested by the same guy I got that last one from. I tried butterscotch with vanilla powder the other day and boy was that good. -------------- "Don't follow leaders and watch your parking meters!" -- Bob Dylan

gwindalyn Posts: 434 Joined: 2003/01/15	2003/05/06, 08:27 AM I use the same kind of hand mixer that kirby does, and it's great!! My typical shake is also simple is 1 cup fat free milk, 2 scoops protein, and whatever frozen berries I happen to have in the freezer. Today it's blueberries. When I was on weight watchers, I used to throw a banana, an apple, orange sections, some milk, ice, vanilla flavoring, and sweetner into a blender and make a smoothie. -------------- ~Jennifer http://www.gwindalyn.com If you dont stand for something, you will fall for anything.

azredhead57 Posts: 1,651 Joined: 2003/04/11	2003/05/21, 02:48 PM Oooooh blueberries, I hadn't thought of that, we always use frozen strawberries with or without a half a banana. I always put about 12 icecubes in mine, and blend. It is more like a slushy than a shake. For my chocolate craving I use choc soy milk and choc protein powder, a little sweetner, ice, blend and voila!
