Clean Simple Eats. All of ‘em.
I’ve only done 1 flavor this way so I’m not sure how to alter it, but this is my favvvvv protein ice cream right now -1 scoop clean simple eats mint chocolate cookie -6 oz unsweetened almond milk mixed with 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder -1 packet truvia Freeze. Blend on “lite ice cream” Add 1 tbsp almond milk Respin. It’s delicious, thick, and creamy!
I honestly have a protein coffee every day in addition to eating lots of it to get it through food too but I use milk of choice and clean simple eats protein powder and pb fit and it's over 30g of protein
I'm a Clean Simple Eats fan! They're on the pricier side but so sell sample sizes, so maybe start with a sample and see how you like the taste/consistency before committing to a whole bag.
Looking for recommendations on protein powders that blend easily! I looooved Alani Nu protein but I think they’ve moved away from that with their focus on energy drinks. I’ve tried Clean Simple Eats but it still ends up kind of chunky for me, even when using a shaker bottle or milk frother. Any other brands I should try? Do I just need to suck it up and pull out the blender every time I want to use it? My go to flavors tend to be chocolate peanut butter or cookies and cream.
Yes I like their chocolate PB! I just find I can never get it to be smooth without lugging out the blender. Even with a shaker bottle I end up with little bits.
I had the same issue. I decided to buy sample sizes where I could to find what I liked. I found prodough to be too chemically tasting. Clean simple eats is better. If you’re making something cold, fit creamery is awesome. I used premier protein vanilla as a coffee creamer in my daily coffee. I finished off the tub yesterday.
Protein powder is usually dairy based. You might check which one you're using. If it's whey based, it's dairy. I've got some Orgain that is plant based that I haven't tried yet. I see an increase in acne (occasional) due to the increased dairy of having a creami every night. I would try different protein powders to find one that doesn't have a strong flavor. Some are uglier than others, flavor wise. I order trial sizes so I'm not spending a lot of money for each package. Fit Creamery is great. ProDough is too chemical tasting for me. Clean Simple Eats isn't bad. I use it for vanilla. I won one of the metabolic protein package giveaways and it will be arriving next week. I'm looking forward to trying that to see how it tastes.
Hey guys, For some reason I I don’t like some of the “goated” mainstream protein powders. I was so addicted I would just us water + ryse protein powder and that would be enough, however addictions slowly fade away and you start cravings some luxurious tasting stuff. **What I love but now kind of bored of:** * Ryse protein (Chocolate cookie blast, Peanut Butter cup, Cosmic Brownie), I have eaten 6 pints per day of these for about a year. Served me well * Ghost whey (Slowly hated the chip’s ahoy, noticed it wasn’t rly my cup of tea, I loved the Coffee Ice cream) * Muscle Sport Lean Whey (overall I did not mind the flavors, I can finish a tub even tho it wasn’t my favorite flavor) * PandaSupps (I like their formulations but need to find the perfect flavor, ordered some more) **What I tried and rly tried to love but couldn’t:** * PEScience, I tried so many times and so many flavors, they just never hit home for me. (chocolate truffle, CnC was very cream heavy) * 1up, their protein powders were rly cream flavor heavy * Axe and Sledge (C&C, Chocolate macadamia) * Legion (Salted caramel, dutch chocolate) * Transparent labs (used to love their dark chocolate but flavor was too mild after a while) * Myprotein (Several chocolate flavor, salted caramel) * Jocko Molk (chocolate, didn’t mind it but didn’t topple ryse, wasn’t worth it for me) * Applied Nutrition (Choco Beuno, White choco Beuno) * Isopure (chocolate) * Mre Lite (Chocolate, Fudge Brownie) * Clean Simple Eats (brownie batter) * Dymatize (Cocoa Pebbles, flavor weren’t rly strong for me) * Ekkovision (Tiramisu, Brownie batter) * Fairlile milk + vanilla extract was abysmal IMO * Orgain (tasted rly weird, maybe its the plant-based formulation) * Optimum Nutiriton (l was hesitant to put this, last time I used it was 2022/23, at the time it wasn’t rly good, but they could have improved so. I tried their chocolate/vanilla, milk was okay but with water, I didn’t like it) **Btw: this has been a very expensive trial and error but worth it.** **Final notes:** It sounds like I am a pain to recommend to, hopefully someone as messed up as me can be helped. As you notice I am chocolate heavy advocate, Idm a vanilla here and there if it’s amazing, lean whey and panda supps vanilla are great. **Flavors I despise, (or maybe haven't tasted good one):** * I don’t like mint (non-negotiable) * pure peanut butter flavored * fruity/cream heavy flavors as you see. For example strawberry shortcake by ryse was more cake/cream than pure strawberry. **Possible flavor/goals:** * I guess the best case scenario for me would be a great vanilla which I think I have, but have never found a good salted caramel (awaiting my panda supps order) * Also Biscoff (cookie butter) * But as you see I like chocolate, chocolate hazelnut, Ferraro Roche/Nutella vibes I get tempted to re-order most protein I don’t like from the sheer positive reviews they get. **Attempts:** I have tried normal cacao, very expensive dutch powders, black cacaos and expensive vanilla bean extracts. They all just try and mask the protein flavor and are dominant, I don’t like the intense dry pure cacao flavor For example when I use a 1Tbsp of Dutch chocolate it overrides any flavor and I just taste that powder, it doesn't seem to blend, just overpower. If i use too little, I can't even sense it's there. I like rich/luxurious gelato/Haagen-Dazs/Lindt vibes. Sorry for the long post. I hope I am not being annoying and hope someone can help me out 😭. Edit: I don’t mind other solutions as well, anything that would work and is not a calorie bomb. I am trying to replicate PinkBerry’s Chocolate Hazelnut rn, I hate normal yogurt and love Greek. I know Pinkberry uses yogurt but their chocolate hazelnut is heavenly.
I’ve liked Clean Simple Eats, Iconic, or Just Ingredients so far!
I don't buy them at super market sorry. I tried Myprotein, clean simple eats, and optimum nutrition. Optimum nutrition is the only one whose taste I can actually stick to 😂
My favorite has been fair life and cleansimpleeats protein. Cleansimpleeats has a sampler with like 10 different flavors. It doesn’t hurt my stomach and all the flavors taste like exactly what they are. Not overly sweet. Also, I like fairlife (not a powder) for my protein coffee
