Question: Best way to eat your soy protein powder?
Question Description:
So I got my big 'ol bucket a few days ago, and I'm really not enjoying the taste. The label suggests mixing 1 scoop with 4 oz of water. This just tastes like really really watered down rice/soy milk. So I mixed it with rice milk which has more of the same flavor, and it chunked up--badly. Maybe I'll try heating the milk first.What's the least "yucky" way to eat it?I'm aware that much of the powder isn't utilized, but I want a particularly high protein intake so I can build my upper body. Getting this purely from food as a vegetarian would mean that all of my meals have to be specifically high-protein, and that's very inconvenient. :(

Answer#3: Yes, Kruster is right you need a blender.
Answer#4: You need a blender, that's the only way to avoid lumps.
Answer#5: I mix a little garlic powder with it and then I dredge some pork chops with it before I fry them up. Lots of protein that way.
Answer#6: Make a delicious smoothie! Mix 1 cup of frozen or fresh berries of your choice, a half of a banana. a cup of yogurt or soy yogurt, half of a cup of milk or milk alternative, a few ice cubes, and your soy protein powder. Blend until smooth and enjoy!
Answer#7: I always make sure I blend it really well with a cup of frozen strawberries and half a banana and super cold water. Just be careful of the calorie count, smoothies can add up really fast in the energy department. Also maybe try mixing half a scoop with oatmeal for breakfast.
Answer#8: buy soy beans and soak in water for 12 hrsthen bake it at 150 degrees for 20-30 minswatch it and shake the container every 5 mins, takeout when it looks like it's crunchy insideyou can salt it and eat it, it's stright protein from soy
Answer#9: Not at all. I hate to tell you this since you've already bought it, but that stuff is not very good for you. Most of the protein isn't utilized since it contains such a high concentration. You're better off getting your soy protein from soy milk, tofu, etc and not from a powder.
Answer#10: I too make a smootie, first I mix a small amount in a blender with some frozen strawberries and soya milk flavoured with the same fruit.I pour this into ice cube trays and freeze it, then in the morning for my breakfast, I add more fruit and a banana sometimes, 4-5 cubes, the flavoured soya milk, a bit of honey, wheat germ oil and a vitamin powder, buzz it and make it my morning meal supplement, any flavour can be used chocolate, vanilla or banana, even kiwi or raspbery, you can also subsitute a fruit juice for the soya milk in the blend in the morning.
Answer#11: I drink the stuff every weekday morning. I buy the chocolate flavor. 1 scoop powder + 16oz fat free milk + 1 tbls sugar/honey + a couple of ice cubes. Shake and enjoy!
Answer#12: Make yourself a smoothie. Get a blender and Add a 1/2 cup of frozen strawberries, 1/2 of frozen cherries, 1 and 1/2 cup of lemonade. 1/2 of sherbet and then add the protein powder and mix until blended. I always add a little splenda to make it sweeter. If you like thinner smoothies add more lemonade or even substitute ginger ale.
Answer#13: Blend it up in a smoothie. Use apple juice or filtered water and add in some fruit, all different kinds. Use ice if you like it thicker.
Answer#14: Blend it with some sugar and peanut butter.
