Protein powder tips:

Mix with skim or 1% milk, unsweetened soy milk, unsweetened almond milk, water or sugar free beverages with 10 calories or less per serving. If mixed with cow milk or soy milk this increases the total protein intake (1 oz = 1 gram protein).

Add to foods (Greek yogurt, hot cereals, applesauce, scrambled eggs). Small amounts mixed into foods throughout the day can increase overall protein intake another 20-30 grams by the day’s end, if a full serving is used.

Create your own flavor enhancers protein supplements by mixing in one serving of fruit or even a tablespoon of peanut butter
