Shakes
-
Vanilla Myoplex can be blended with water, instant coffee, cinnamon and ice cubes to make a cappuccino drink, or with water, apple juice, ButterBbuds, Cool Whip, ice and cinnamon to make an apple pie flavored shake. For the taste of Key Lime Pie, combine vanilla Myoplex with limeade concentrate water and ice cubes. Chocolate Myoplex can be combined with peanut butter, water and ice.
Pudding
-
Because Myoplex has a thick consistency, the texture lends itself to pudding mixes. By combining instant chocolate pudding, milk and chocolate Myoplex, you can create an enriched chocolate pudding. Blending Cool Whip into the mixture will create a mousse. Vanilla Myoplex can be combined with banana pudding mix, Cool Whip and bananas for a banana cream pudding, or pistachios and pistachio pudding mix for a pistachio pudding.
French Toast
-
Myoplex can be blended into batter mixes. Fortified French Toast, one recipe on the Body For Life website, calls for a mixture of 3 tablespoons of vanilla Myoplex Lite, ½ cup of egg substitute, ¼ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, two slices of whole wheat bread and ¼ cup sugar-free maple syrup. The batter is made by combining the Myoplex, egg and cinnamon. Then the bread is dipped in the batter and cooked until done. It is served with the maple syrup.
Smoothies
-
Fruit Smoothies are a staple tropical drink that also makes a quick and easy breakfast. While traditional smoothies are made with yogurt, vanilla Myoplex is a healthy, protein-filled substitute. To make a fruit smoothie, combine water, vanilla Myoplex, 2 tablespoons of frozen orange juice concentrate, a cup of your favorite fruit and three ice cubes. Blend until smooth.
