You can certainly use cow's milk. </p> <p>You can also make smoothies with protein powder as an ingredient. So like bananas, strawberries, ice, milk, powder.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080871 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 17:18:51 +0000 Ra 2080871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hotchildinthecity: I'm sorry if I sound like an idiot, but why almond milk instead of cow's milk? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080869 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 17:17:06 +0000 hotchildinthecity 2080869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ra: I just mix almond milk and the powder in a shaker but I'm using it as a snack or post-workout, not as a meal replacement. I'd boost the calories if you're replacing a meal with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080799 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 16:03:41 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 2080799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ra: I've only had chocolate so far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080787 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 15:47:47 +0000 blackbird 2080787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ra: well, if it's a meal replacement, then have it anytime. If you do a lot of body weight stuff in PiYo that taxes your muscles (like lifting would), having a protein shake within 15 min or so sends fuel to your muscles and helps them repair themselves faster! Usually for a post work out shake, I just do water and powder. Super boring. Lately I've been having them at 6am just for a change of pace:) I can't work out on an empty stomach and never have been able to....so I could do half the banana before and dump the other half in the shake afterwards. Just personally </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080785 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 15:44:49 +0000 Ra 2080785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: I just started PiYo from Beach Body and plan to do it in the mornings. Would it work better that way since it will be after my workout, too? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080779 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 15:32:43 +0000 blackbird 2080779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ra: depends on my goals, personally. For a breakfast replacement, I do a scoop of powder, a cup of whole milk, and a sliced banana I froze the night before. Sometimes I use coffee and a splash of vanilla extract. It tides me over a couple hours so I still have to eat again around 9, but gets me through my commute and nets me about 30 grams of protein in the morning (I try to get about 90 a day when I can) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080776 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 15:29:59 +0000 Ra 2080776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheSwissWifeStyle: I'll look into that! Favorite flavor? </p> <p>@bpcmarj: Good idea! I love making green smoothies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080774 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 15:28:25 +0000 Ra 2080774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hotchildinthecity: @blackbird: Thanks! I'll try it. Do you mix anything in? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080768 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 15:25:17 +0000 loveisstrange 2080768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ra: Hahahaha, oh man.... that would be sooo good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080766 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 15:24:19 +0000 blackbird 2080766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you're just looking for an affordable meal replacement, I second optimum nutrition. I've had some better tasting brands but unless you want to spend $3/serving, I won't, heh. </p> <p>I just bought a 2lb container of MRM All Natural Whey Dutch Chocolate and I looooove it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080764 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 15:23:30 +0000 Ra 2080764@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@loveisstrange: Now in dreaming of putting cookie butter in a shake. Hahaha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080693 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 14:44:53 +0000 hotchildinthecity 2080693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like gold standard optimum nutrition </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080691 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 14:44:20 +0000 bpcmarj 2080691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like Syntrax Nectar carribean cooler. Is yummy on it's own and good in a fruity smoothie. I have also heard good things or "About Time". I have a sample that I haven't used yet. They also make a vegan version. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080657 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 14:28:30 +0000 loveisstrange 2080657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I actually really like the Trader Joe's brand. I use the chocolate and a scoop of PB2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080647 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 14:19:59 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 2080647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Sun Warrior the best! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-tasting-protein-powder#post-2080623 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 13:54:26 +0000 Ra 2080623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I skip breakfast more often than not so I'm looking to find a protein powder for the mornings I'm too preoccupied to eat. Any suggestions? </p>
