mmmmmm, sounds yummy. i am waiting on a delivery of cookies and cream MAX. Also reading while munching roasted chick peas with Key lime (savory) seasoning. Tasty!
Thanks so much for the great idea for using Via! I can't believe it never occurred to me to mix it in shakes or use in other recipes. I think I'll have to go celebrate by making a mocha banana protein shake! ;)
Ahh - you've discovered my secret recipe! I don't usually use the blender or the icecubes, but I love the Via with the protein and some milk for my 4 pm pick-me-up!
Shelly, have you gotten your nails done lately? I think thats were all the men are at. I went this afternoon and there were three guys in there getting manicures! Who knew that was the place to meet men.
Wow! this sounds so friggin' good! Does the via come in caffeinated? It's my drug of choice, lol.
LOL tailynn, Come to think of it last time there were two guys getting pedis... I think they might have been a couple though ;)
Mz. - Yep Via comes in leaded & unleaded.
So when is your cook book out? These are fabulous recipes and although I never had the surgery I sure appreciate tasty healthy low calorie food. keep up the good work.

Thanks for the great ideas, Shelly. I am dying to try Max protein but I am waiting for the coupon code to be reinstated. Do you know when that might be?
I saved your blog months ago for the Bean Patties and just opened it up today because I am always striving for new "smart eating" ideas and I saw your shakes. I can't tell you how important it is to like what you drink, because if you just take it like its medicine, you will give up on the shakes quick!
My spin on Protein shakes
Chocolate Light Soy Milk
Ice
Chocolate Protein
Tasters Choice Coffee ( or splurge and get a Starbucks Packet)
This makes an outstanding dark chocolaty Espresso shake!
OR
Drop the coffee and put in Natural Peanut butter 1tbsp and you get a close 2nd to a P'nut butter cup!
Thank you for another AWESOME recipe, Shelly! I had actually ordered some Max Ultimate the day that you posted this recipe. I had to wait until my Cookies and Cream arrived (which was today) to enjoy this goodie. I used Carb Countdown Chocolate for my milk. This is a new favorite!
This was so good! I used a half-packet of Via 'cause I'm new to coffee. :)
I will be sending people over to your site to view the protein receipes. This is great especially this one!
