What did you eat today?

[emily_in_nc]

Gee, let's see if I can remember it all - had a long ride (for me) so ate a LOT!

B - cereal with fruit, protein powder, walnuts, almond milk; 2 c. coffee

46 mile bike ride.
Snacks on ride - homemade oatmeal/raisin bar, Pepperidge farm gold fish, scoop of coffee ice cream w/cone at an ice cream parlor

Late lunch - salmon wrap w/lettuce, limeade, lite beer (rehydrating!)

S - carrot/celery/spinach/oj blender drink

D - kale enchiladas, black beans w/sour cream, pile of lettuce w/salsa, chips, 1 (strong) margarita

I have tried mixing protein powder in milk for my cereal, but can't abide the taste - how do you manage it? What brand do you use?

[Blueberry]

I use 1 scoop of Trader Joe's Vanilla soy protein powder onto my cereal before I put my (vanilla almond) milk on. Curious what others do - the little bit of powder doesn't bother me at all.

B: one blueberry pancake and a slice of ham, coffee
L: veggie burger (plain, no roll), cole slaw, Israeli cous cous with cranberries/nuts
D: 2 homemade chili rellenos. quite a labor intensive process, but they were good and since the recipe was from Cooking Light, not deep fried with a side of black beans, one beer

Mine barely tastes, and the taste it does have is not unpleasant at all, very bland. Gets lost in the much more flavorful almond milk I use. It's a vanilla whey powder, no sweeteners. I buy it from trueprotein.com. You can make up a custom blend, add various things, whatever. I've been very happy with their service and product.
