I love milkshakes, especially in the Summer when it's hot.

I figured out how to make them so I don't feel guilty.

I just add Slimfast for nutrition, protein powder, some powdered fiber, vanilla extract, milk and ice cream and I have a well-balanced snack that tastes great! Mmmmmmm!

      I used to use Carnation instant breakfast in my milk shakes.
      Now I'm into what I guess are called smoothies.
      I add **** berry, banana, ginger root, cocoa powder and milk, always.
      For now I also have some blueberries, cranberries, and mango I'm adding. If I can stop eating them when I pick them I'd add some fresh red raspberries from my yard too

        Holy Cow, Thom - ya know all those black raspberries at the end of your street just your side of the cemetery? Bananas and those - makes a smoothie that you won't even believe. My sister and I used to just pig on those things during berry season and I've never even liked bananas mixed with other fruit before. You have to try one.

    Soy Almond milk, fruit yogurt and a banana in the blender makes a good tasty snack when I'm trying to be good. Sometimes I'll add strawberries.

    However the banana split blizzard from Dairy Queen is my first summer love.

    Thom.
    Carnation Instant Breakfast is now called Carnation Breakfast Essentials ( why the name change I haven't a clue) but that is what I drink every other day along with taking magnesium gel tabs to get my level up. While not as high as the docs want, its stopping it from getting dangerously low,and at my last visit they said whatever Im doing is owrking well enough and to keep on doing it.

      I'm thinking I may pick up a box of Carnation tonight. I used to drink it for breakfast everyday.

            If you must know my thought process, I went from Kurt's milkshake to Thom's smoothie and then thought not all smoothies include dairy products such as milk, but some even include a little kick.

            I then remembered my recipe for a Pink Lady and sold myself on the the idea.

            I thought the flow of all those things was completely understood, but even if you didn't see the logical steps, um, hello, this is the "off topic" forum! Get it, off topic? :rolleyes:

            P.S. Wow, that was a little snarky, oh, bartender... lol!

    I love ice cream in all forms. It shows too.

    Now if they could just make a calorie-free ice cream without any artificial sweeteners that tasted great, and I'd be all set.

    I haven't made too many myself, and my favorite smoothie place closed down! Now it's Tropical Smoothie Cafe when I need a chilly fix.

    I use Carnation too...It's almost identical to Slimfast in nutrition (and calories). It just depends which one is on sale.

      Don't know if you have a BJs there but I get my carnation at our local BJs and its something like 22 packs for about $8 when at the grocery store its about $6 or $7 for half as many pouches.

    You are all so flippin' healthy you're making me feel guilty....okay, I'm over it now!

    I could live off of milkshakes. However, I like mine the old-fashioned way........vanilla ice cream, milk and chocolate syrup with whipped cream and a cherry on top.

    Mmmmmmmm

      Just substitute chocolate Slimfast or Carnation for the chocolate syrup. It tastes just as good and you get some good nutes too.
