I finally found one that is good. It is the nectar chocolate truffle 1 scoop has 23 gms add no sugar carnation instant Breakfast powder which has 6 gm in chocolate flavor. Put I bottle of Water in a blender cup. shake it well. And some ice cubes and it is yuuum. U cannot even taste the protein I promise.
