Protein Powder & Oatmeal:
This is an extremely fast and easy meal for when you are in a rush. Simply take your serving of oatmeal, cook it through your preferred method and then add a scoop of protein powder in after its finished cooking.
Note however that you may wish to add a little more water before cooking as the protein powder will act as a thickener. Other additions that you can add to increase the taste and nutrient profile are peanut butter, chopped or frozen fruit and milk.

Easy Protein Bars:
8 Scoops Whey (any flavor you prefer)
3 Cups Oats
1 Package Sugar Free Fat Free Pudding
2 Cups Skim Milk
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl and spread in the bottom of a pan. Place in the fridge overnight and cut into 8 individual squares the next morning.

Protein Jell-o:
1 scoop protein powder
1 package sugar free jell-o powder
Make jell-o as directed on the package only right before you put it into the fridge; mix in one scoop fruit flavored protein powder. Syntrax's Nectar protein works great for this recipe.

Protein Powder Cottage Cheese:
Another very easy idea for those on a high protein diet and looking for a fast meal. Take 1/2 to1 cup cottage cheese and mix with 1/2 to 1 scoop protein powder. If you are looking for a more complete protein and fat meal, which may be the case for those on carb cycling plans, add in a tablespoon of peanut butter to get the macronutrient profile you need.

Protein Peanut Butter Balls:
3/4 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup honey
1 scoop chocolate or vanilla protein powder
1/2 cup raw oats
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl and form into small 1" balls. Place in the fridge for a few hours and then enjoy.

Protein Powder Parfait:
2 cups chopped mixed berries
2 cups of sugar free yogurt or pudding
1 scoop protein powder
Mix protein powder in with yogurt or pudding. Layer fruit and pudding/yogurt in a tall parfait glass. Top with chocolate shavings or a dab of fat free cool whip. Makes 2 servings.

Oatmeal Pancakes:
1 cup raw oats
1 scoop protein powder
3 egg whites
1/4 cup water
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 packets sweetener
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
Place all ingredients in a blender and blend for 30 seconds. Then pour onto a hot grill and cook like a normal pancake. An optional addition is to add some frozen fruit after the batter is blended.
