My Favorite Formula 1 Shake Recipe.


Since I am using the formula 1 shakes as a meal replacement to help me lose some weight, I thought that I would make a little note on one of my favorite shake recipes.

Normally I am a chocolate shake guy, but when I joined Herbalife I received the vanilla shake in my sample order, french vanilla to be exact.  Now the french vanilla was OK.  I mean it's vanilla, what is there to get excited about, it's not french vanilla ice cream, which I really love.  Anyway I was trying to find a way to make my french vanilla shakes a little more flavorful.   I played around with some recipes, adding various types of fruits etc, which was not bad.  I did enjoy the blueberries though.

To make a long story short, I need to insert here that I am a morning coffee drinker.  Now I don't drink a lot coffee, just a couple of cups maybe in the mornings.  Since I don't like my coffee black, I usually add some creamer and splenda.  Well my creamer is a nationally recognized company.  They

have a variety of flavors but my favorite flavor of creamer just happens to be french vanilla.

So one day as I was putting creamer into my coffee, I started wondering what my french vanilla shake would taste like if I put some french vanilla creamer in it.  By the way way my creamer is sugar free.  So I did it.  I put in a little french vanilla creamer into my french vanilla shake

and Wow... It was really good.  It really intensified the french vanilla flavor, and tasted more like french vanilla ice cream, yummy.

So here is my recipe for my double french vanilla shake.

1oz of french vanilla creamer (sugar free)
4-5 cubes of ice
4oz of 1% or fat free milk
5oz of water
2-3 table spoons of pure protein powder
1 tea spoon of splenda (optional)
Blend until ice is crushed well but not completely melted...pour and enjoy.

Thanks for letting me share one of my favorite formula 1 shake recipes.
