What to add to protein shakes?

[SWChitown 46]

So I had my 3 hour class at my Dr's office today where we had to pick out a flavor of Protein Shake powder, the choices were:

chocolate

Mint Chocolate

Cookies n Cream

strawberry

vanilla

I was totally unprepared & picked Vanilla?!?!?!? I did over hear a woman saying you could mix in crystal lite, has anyone done this? Or have any ideas what I can add (flavor wise) to get thru this hellish 2 week pre opp diet???

I added about a third of a cup of pumpkin purée an some pumpkin pie spices with sweeten almond milk.

You can also add some sf pudding powder like butterscotch to mix it up.

Plus get some baking flavoring like coconut or coffee and try those. Made a big difference in my shakes.

Im doing it now got vanilla too. I used extracts to give it more flavor. I also have blended a banana and a little cinnamon is pretty good too

Vanilla is a win-lose... by itself usually not to great, but it is an excellent pallet for adding flavors. Crystal Lite/ Mio works good for a fruity flavor. PB2 or Betty Lou's powdered Peanut Butter is awesome, they have both plain pb and chocolate pb. Not sure if you are restricted on carbs but obviously blended with frozen fruit will be awesome.
