Awesome Protein Drink

"I find most protein drinks taste terrible, are gritty, etc. This one is delicious - even my teenage son and husband who hates cottage cheese will drink it. Add a scoop of protein powder if you'd like. I'm editing this to say that the calorie count on Zaar is incorrect. If you use lowfat cottage cheese, the calorie count is actually 250 calories per serving. I have also discovered a wonderful new way to flavor this. I omit the vanilla and grate some fresh nutmeg in, then a little cinnamon and blend. Makes it taste somewhat "noggy"."

  1. Good! I used regular milk and just added more vanilla--worked fine.
     
  2. My 11 decided to become a vegitarian a couple months ago, so it has been hard to get her enough protein. I didn't tell her what was in it until she said she liked it. :-) I traded the splenda for Nesquick chocolate powder and added a couple ice cubes. She said she wants one every morning.
     
  3. I have been using your basic recipe for over a year and love it. Smooth, tasty, and a whooping 40g's of protein! I vary it by adding frozen berries, carob powder powder, and even a bit of instant coffee! Thanks so much.
     
  4. OH MAN, THE MONEY SHOT!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a Marine Corps wife and mother of two children with skin and three with fur. I consider myself a "southern cook", but I love to try new stuff, too. I'm also a registered nurse and my specialty is Neonatal ICU. We are currently stationed near Washington, DC and we really, really could not hate it more. We are not big city people. We prefer the quiet mountains of Vermont, where my husband is from. I am into my own spirituality, and love to study religions of different kinds.
