Ok wait, are you sleeping on Halloumi? You grill it so it’s hot and crispy crunchy 11/10 Also protein powder in eeeeeverything. If you’re in Aus Sustagen Hospital Formula is banging, and Isowhey is also pretty good. I do crispy air fryer chickpeas and mix them into pesto pasta. Almonds in everything. Chia pudding with protein powder and fruit then chuck a handful of nuts and seeds on it!
I'm Aussie and have the deluxe also. Vanilla is the hardest flavour to nail! I've almost given up on it My favourite recipe at the moment is 300ml so good chocolate almond milk 30g violet crumble protein powder 80g greek yoghurt Guar gum 1/4tsp Top up to the max fill line with skim milk You could sub whatever flavour protein powder you have I've also found muscle tech vanilla ice cream flavour protein powder gives best vanilla flavour so far but still not loving it. Maybe I need to add sweeteners Frozen fruit mixed with yoghurt and almond or skim milk also turns out nice with natural sweetness (I've done a mango and a raspberry version so far)
MuscleBlaze is nice but i don’t like how it becomes slimy I generally use IN2, great taste and mixability, especially coffee flavor I’ve used MuscleTech, it’s way too sweet I’ve used unflavoured ones too, best part is I buy some flavours like belgium chocolate or coffee, add to the mix and add some sugarfree pellet this way i can control taste and sweetness, worked like a charm and saves money too ON is fine, good mixability and taste WholeTruth seems great but too expensive as of now I don’t use whey, 100% of my protein requirements now comes from my diet i designed (about 140g protein) I will be adding whey soon but just 1 scoop as a last resort to cut down quantity of chicken (200g chicken breasts, total calorie of my diet is 1900) which i find too much to eat, I can go on but i’ll optimise it better this way as a golden rule of thumb; always make sure you do not require more than a scoop of whey and rest comes from your diet whey protein is the last resort when your diet is difficult to be optimised without compromising lot of caloric values
Sweet - strawberry cream Vanilla-like - salted caramel These 2. Matcha latte I suspect the flavor changed lol so I stopped buying after going through a few 5kg bags Now I buy muscletech instead since mp price difference not that much
I usually use MuscleTech or Optimum Nutrition, whichever one is cheaper at the time. ON has more flavors but is more expensive.
I have been using MuscleTech for a while. Hands down the best protein I have tried till now.
