Protein Shakes...questions/ideas

[SecSandleford]

Today I made an order at www.netrition.com for sugar free davinci syrups and protein powder. I tried looking around the net for some recipes, but i didn't find anything good for low carb recipes. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Also, I was thinking protein powerder, water, ice, sugarfree syrup, would be good and then add 1 or 2 oz of cream cheese to thicken it. WHat do you guys think of cream cheese as a shake thickener? And suggestions or ideas?

Thanks

You can use unsweetened soymilk if you are on a higher rung. We have a box around here with only net carb per cup and there is vanilla flavor.. even chocolate, or regular if you want. I believe my mom bought a box that is sweetened with Splenda too... still only 1 net carb.

I'm not sure if it would thicken a whole lot but it's better than puting water in it
