My usual daily morning shake (and my grandson loves it) has yogurt, oatmeal, protein powder, flax seed oil, fresh fruit and maybe a little natural peanut butter if I'm using chocolate flavored protein powder to take care of any stray Reeses cravings :).

I'm looking to gain mass, so I have a nice little weight gainer shake on non-training days (MRP,natural PB,1% cottage cheese,Udo's Oil Blend,non-fat yogurt all in milk) that clears 1000 calories of clean food. That's a lot like what bb1fit was suggesting. Other things to throw in would be fresh fruits and I've even heard of people putting oats or oatmeal in. On training days, I take my PWO shake and it's 2 scoops whey, 8 tblsps maltodextrin and 10g glutamine all in water.
