I bought unflavoured impact whey from MyProtein for a bargain £.25 inc P&P I got 2.5kg.
I got it so cheap because I asked for 10% off and they gave it to me. I really do think if you don’t ask, you don’t get So it’s worth asking for a great deal!
I selected this brand for my first choice as; It’s not full of additives; sugars or fats and its not the cheapest on the market. Its a really good middle ground, It’s a great powder for me because i’m not a bodybuilder, I just want want enough protein to rebuild my damaged tissue when I do strength training.
Recipes:
To make a banana shake & Variants:
Banana yog ice cream: Yoghurt, 4 scoops of yoghurt , 2 bananas, 2 scoops protein powder, Freeze
Fruit yog ice cream: Yoghurt, 4 scoops of yoghurt , 2 cups of fruit (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and 1 tbsp of honey), 2 scoops protein powder, Freeze.
To make a flan:
The powder thickens quickly with a fair amount of liquid so you can add 2 scoops of powder 1 tbsp of cocoa powder and milk or water, it does taste great with milk, but it tastes just as lovely with water and its less calories! Chill it for 30 mins before serving.
Why not add it to a gluten free brownie?
Tip: Blend the banana first, then add the powder slowly, then add the milk… otherwise it’s lumpy or it splatters all up the blender.
Tip: You can substitute the milk with Soy Rice or almond milk, but I recommend using a banana with semi skimmed as; Whey is just milk protein and bananas are made up of carbs that your body will be craving.
