frozen fruit (I like peach/mangoes/kiwi)
yogurt (I like peach)
soy milk
orange juice (any fruit juice)
banana (half or whole)

This all tastes pretty great and you can add: protein powder, flax (oil), wheat germ or whatever foul-tasting, super-healthy product you want to add to your diet. They also have a lot of energy in them, which can help deter one from drinking coffee.

1 cup frozen raspberries
1 cup spinach
1 cup low-fat plain yogurt
½ cup low-fat milk
¼ cup cashews
2 scoops strawberry Metabolic Drive

Combine all ingredients into a blender and blend on high till smooth and creamy.

1 tsp matcha green tea
¼ cup hot water
½ banana
½ cup coconut milk
½ cup low-fat cottage cheese
½ cup low-fat plain yogurt
1 scoop Vanilla Metabolic Drive
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups of ice

Add matcha to 2 tbsp of hot water. Mix with a fork until matcha is completely dissolved. Add remaining hot water stirring constantly. Combine all ingredients and blend on high until smooth and creamy.

I have to apologize to my friend Dan Fern for this one. A few years ago we were both skinny kids looking to gain weight. So we came up with the T-Bomb shake. It was hell to drink, but it sure packed in the calories. Make this at your own peril. And don't blame us if you can't finish it, Nancy Boy!

If memory serves...

1 cup of uncooked oats
1 cup of cottage cheese
1 banana
2-3 scoops of chocolate Metabolic Drive protein
1 heaping tablespoon of natural peanut butter
Enough water to not make it thick as

Drink directly out of blender while watching Pumping Iron and high-fiving.
