homemade protein shakes?

[wittdog]

are there any recipes fora a protein shake made from food that you may have laying around the house?

[BlackBeltVova]

Yes! I'd love to know as well!!!!! Advance thanks to anyone who might enlighten us. And davep07, thanks for the info, I"ll be sure to look around.

[Voldo]

have u look on the other forums, there's peanut butter smoothies etc. take a look, as far as making one i not much of an expert sorry! but keep a look out!

[thebigguy]

YES MAKE THEM ALL WITH MILK.MILK HAS 8 GRAMS OF PROTEIN PER CUP. SO WITH 3 CUPS OF MILK AND 2 tablespoons of peanutbutter you got a nice shake with 32 grams of protein!

[The BIG Gun]

Welcome to the board bigguy!!

LMAO...since you did not say that is had to taste good, i could write up a bunch of great protein shakes!!

for example...toss some milk in, the some turkey, few eggs, banana for a little taste, etc...lol...just playin'!! but you could.

peanut butter is one of the best things to add to a shake. since i too am not that crafty with a blender (usually use whey and other stuff) i cannot think of anything right now. if i think of anything i will post it later.

SingingGal is pretty crafty, maybe she'll post some shakes for ya!!

hey my gym teacher once gave me one.
2 cups of milk 16g protein
1 banna dunno how many grams
one cup of vinalla low fat yogart 9 grams
and some straw berrys like 2
its pretty good

[Charger]

I don't know about shakes but I make homade bars all the time.
16 ounces NATURAL peanut butter
8 ounces pure honey
2 cups oatmeal
2 cups protein powder(anyflavor)
Add peanut butter and honey, nuk in the microwave just enough to warm it.
Stir in oatmeal and powder.
Press flat in cake pan refridgerate. Cut into 12 bars and wrap.

As a variation I add 8 ounces more honey with 2 more cups rice crispies, GOOD!!!!!!

is there any protien shake that taste good??

[whoisdaman]

The only shake that I have tried that tastes good is EAS Myoplex shakes, besides that they were all crap. I just want a tasteless shake that I can throw bananas and peaches in to add taste.

[John999]

I posted this earlier but i will again as it interests me and you may like it yourself..in one issue of muscle mag ernie taylor gave away one of his secrets to his great triceps his Coke and tuna shakes blended yes thats right folks coke and tuna

[whoisdaman]

That is a very strange combo.... I have never heard of a tuna/coke blend. I'll be right back, getting kinda sick here! smilies/images/icons/blush.gif

[whoisdaman]

Hey, I know this is kind of off subject, but is there such a thing as whey protein powder without a taste? I have always wanted some, but never could find any! If there is such a thing, can you tell me who makes it? smilies/drool.gif

[Charger]

You can order it online at www.proteinfactory.com (http://www.proteinfactory.com)
They have all different kinds and you can customize a mixture and order it with the flavor of your choice. Simply don't chose a flavor and you get it unflavored which I have heard is pretty nasty. I have bought alot of protein powder there, there site can be trusted and it is cheap.

[Voldo]

hey i'm from the uk and there some at our shop where i get mine from. i don't dare to get the one with no flavour when there is chocolate, strawberry and vanilla!!!!

[Blueflame33]

today i was expermenting with my blender and came up with this:
2 cups of mill

1 orange(for vitamin C)

6 tbps of peanu butter

its thick but it taste ok.

[shabang281]

what would you put with vanilla spiraltein?

[footballplayer2]

i found a pouch of that.. its got a ton of protein (42g) in one serving but im on a huge cut and its got 24 g of carbs but only 3 g sugars.. o well im not gonna do it. im waitn for my protein and all my other stuff to come in...

[Jamil]

Hey playas listen up.....all you have to do to have a quality protein shake is put 3 to 4 scoops of whey protein in a cup...add nestle carnation instant breakfast (which has about 5 grams of protein in it)......throw in a banana and your set....just make sure you take some Tums cuz i find out that I get gas when I drink protein shakes

[crayz]

Did anybody watch Fear Factor when they made protein shakes with all that nasty stuff like spleen? Im sure that was high in protein.

I love shakes and used to belong to a board where they posted many many recipes. Here are a few of my faves (most are bulking shakes)

Butterfinger

1/2 cup milk
1--2 scoops chocolate whey powder
1 Tblsp. natural peanut butter
1 tsp. cocoa
3-4 pkts. Splenda (or other sweetener)

Put the above in blender and whir till smooth. If the cubes don't enter the blade as they should, turn off the blender and poke them down several times as you pulse blend.


**************************************************

Using Chocolate Protein Drink Powder, add 2 Tablespoons of Natural Peanut Butter, 2 Tablespoons Ricotta Cheese (lf), 1 packet Stevia, 1 cup water, and 3 ice cubes. Voila! Chocolate Peanut Butter Shake!
**************************************

ahhh....a tuna shake that might actually work!!!!
I barely ever drink Cola's, but I know when I have a coke with tuna, it really tones down the tuna flavour. I'm going to do that one for sure.

[SgtJalopy]

El Dopa you are one brave man, but please let us know how it taste,

But isn't the coke not a good thing because of all the sugar in it?

like I said, I don't normally drink coke, but as a pre/post workout meal, it's excellent.
