Loved it - next time I'll add more almond extract and instant coffee since my protein powder has a strong flavor. Also a half cup of milk is not very much for a whole breakfast; to make this a meal, I would need to increase it to a full cup. Thanks for a fun new protein shake idea! -
Wowzer, 5 stars Jenni. Tried this for lunch today and it's fabulous w/the almond. I've made these b/f but not w/almond flavoring. It really adds great taste. Thanks alot for posting. Made for March Coffee Photoforum~

I LOVE to cook! These days, life is so busy having two little ones and running a business out of our home, so cooking needs to be simple and easy. Dinner time is when the whole family sits down together and we have family time. A good meal really increases our fun together.

<br>A big goal of mine in cooking is keeping fat and calories down. If I can find a tasty meal that is healthy too, I hang onto the recipe and make a habit of whipping it up often!
