Introduction

I've really been having trouble getting enough protein since I don't eat/crave a lot of meat...and I've started losing hair, and my dermatologist suggested it might be lack of protein...so I've been forcing myself to use protein powder, and I don't like to eat things unless they taste good...so I've been looking up recipes and experimenting, and this is one I came up with, and its REALLY good..and I don't even like coffee!

Ingredients

    -1/2 cup Dannon Light & Fit Vanilla Yogurt
    -1/2-3/4 cup coffee (preferably cooled first); adjust this up or down to reach your desired consistency.
    -1/4 Scoop Cookies and Cream (or Chocolate) whey protein powder; adjuste this up or down for your protein needs
    -splenda to taste
    -ice cubes (if desired)

Directions

1. Mix the yogurt, coffee, and protein powder and stir (or shake) until blended.
2. Add splenda to reach desired sweetness
3. Add ice cubes and enjoy!

I only used 1/4 scoop of protein powder since this was just a mid afternoon snack...but you could easily do 1/2 scoop which would make this treat 96 calories and 17 g of protein!

    Skipping the yogurt is a terrible idea - the powder has nothing to mix into and floats at the top. :( I'll have to try again the 'right' way haha. - 3/10/14
