Protein Powders

Illustration

Preparation, uses, and tips

Combine protein powder with yogurt, raspberries, and almonds in a blender and purée for a quick breakfast. Add unflavored protein powder to cooked oatmeal, cereal, breads, cookies, or other baked goods for added protein.

Buying and storing tips

Look for protein powders in the supplement section of health food stores, or in the specialty foods section of some supermarkets. Store protein powders in a cool, dark location for 6 to 12 months.

Varieties

Protein powders are available in canisters in plain and flavored varieties—the plain varieties are bland and nearly tasteless, making them easy to incorporate into foods. Natural varieties with no artificial ingredients are also available.
