This recipe is a great flavor enhancer to your basic protein shakes. Nonfat dry milk adds additional protein along with your protein supplement. 

Make basic formula protein shake and add Chia Flavor ing Mix to taste!

Chia Dry Flavoring Mix for Protein Shakes

1/2 cup instant nonfat dry milk

1/4 cup vanilla-flavored instant creamer (dry)   

Sweetener substitute equivalent to 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
 

1/4 cup unsweetened instant tea (dry)

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

This dry mix flavoring can be added to your protein shakes. Make sure you count your carbs for the milk products including nonfat dry powder, creamer, and any additional milk you might add in the basic protein shake recipe. To avoid dumping your carb count should remain around 15 grams and under 10 grams of sugar. By using water or Hood milk to the basic formula will reduce the carb and sugar counts when adding this dry mix to your shake. 

Note about Creamer: If your protein supplement is already vanilla flavored you could omit this ingredient or add additional vanilla liquid flavoring after your shake is made.
