1 TSBP instant coffee powder ( i love coffee - this could be omitted)

2-3 packets of splenda
Ice
(blend thoughoughly)


Yummy Odio....this is awesome!

Stephanie,

That shake sounds great! I'll try it tomorrow.

It does sound really good as I love coffee and also chocolate! Is it caffiene free? I am really sensitive to caffiene.

I an not a coffe fan but Stephanie made this for me one night just before my surgery and it was really good (Maybe I will try without the coffe )

Stephanie, if you glued a window onto your house, you could sell these to people driving by for 6 bucks a pop! Really sinfully delicious.

I'm glad you like it Sandi....I take you tried it then huh *looking a a stream of chocolate dripping down your cheek!*

It's my fav....Have had it almost every day for a year and I vary it sometimes leaving out the coffe and doing banana, peanut butter, and chocolate nectar. BUT....coffee is my fav

Since surgery I do NO caffeine, no carbination, no alcohol
I use instant decaf in this....and I believe the protein powder is also.

Stephanie

this sounds super yummy. I will have to try this.

My favorite powders are unjury and nectar - unjury and nectar are both about 20 g protein. Unjury I do with lactaid milk and nectar is made to dissolve in water. I need to get more of both!

and for premade shakes I love worldwide protein. - flavor depending - 32 g protein and 4 g carbs or 34 g protein and 2 g carbs.

Vanilla protein shakes with a couple pumps of davinci sf chai concentrate is wicked yummy!

My very favorite shake is Carb Solutions. They are really good, even not doctored up.
But, my favorite shake recipe is this:

1 cup Welch's Strawberry Kiwi 100% juice
1/2 cup water
2 envelopes Equal or Splenda
5 or 6 ice cubes

Blend this in a smoothie machine (or blender) and it is simply yumm-o! You can throw in a handful of strawberries if you really want a meal replacement.

Enjoy!

Kewl Debbie! That sounds great.....might have to give it a try. I have some strawbery kiwi protein powder, wonder about adding 1/2 a scoop of that?

Stephanie

YAY!

I will try it in the morning!
Sounds delish!
