Can you mix protein powder with anything?



Recommended Posts

Unflavored, I mean. I'm headed to GNC today to find a good one. But can you mix it into things like chicken salad? Or refrained Beans? Or even crystal light? My surgeon has his patients going home from the hospital on purée/mushy foods and wants us to be able to eat our Protein as soon as possible.

Absolutely! The only caveat is that Protein Powder can't be used in anything that you're heating up to over 140 degrees - the Protein will start to curdle (yuck!).

And also remember that unflavored does not mean "no flavor" It still has the natural flavor of Protein powder it just doesn't have any extra flavors added to it.

What does that taste like? Is it gross?

I have some unflavored from Syntrax which I haven't tried yet. I think it's best if you add it to something that has a good amount of flavor as opposed to something bland. That way, the flavor of the food will mask the Protein taste.

I think they are gross. I can't do the powders. Tried a couple brands of unflavored in many things but between the texture and off putting during an aftertaste I have unused tubs of the stuff! Now I just eat my Protein or drink a pure Protein Shake (35g). Hopefully your taste buds won't be quite as discerning!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
