very random thread.

Just started eating Oikos pro a few times a week. 20g of protein.

honestly the best yogurt I have ever had from the store. stir it about 30 seconds before eating it. The texture is crazy smooth and the taste is great.

thats all!

Been buying Oikos 15g protein, it is good. I throw in blueberries or granola, maybe chia seeds every now and then.

I like to supplement daily with a scoop and a half of chocolate optimum nutrition whey protein. Most days I add it to about 3/4 of a cup of cottage cheese, but some days I do Oikos vanilla yogurt and it's delicious!

The yogurt doesn't become too thick with 1.5 scoops of whey?

I'm a big fan of the icelandic provisions Skyr. 15g of protein and it's delicious.

The nonfat plain Skyr is my fave, too. Smash up 7-8 raspberries and blackberries and add a few drops of stevia or a drizzle of honey and it's delicious. I eat this as a snack every day.

You try Ratio? 9g carbs, 3g sugar, 25g protein, 3.5g fat, 170 calories.

More protein than I typically need when I pack it for lunch, so I don't get it regularly. It's a bit thick compared to regular greek. Not sure I've had the Oikos pro to compare it to.

Yep I tried the protein one this weekend. It taste awful to me. Way too fake sweet and protein powder tasting.

Chobani 20g/High Protein mango. The cherry berry flavor looks & tastes like Pepto Bismol.

I could never handle the yogurts. Never liked the taste.

I've been doing Overnight Oats the past couple of months and really liked it. Good flavors and 20g of whey in each packet.

This. The Chobani version tastes much better than the Oikos.

I eat the regular Oikos triple zero vanilla. I use it for cereal base. Goes great with something a little crunchy.

Friendly Farms plain whole milk Greek yogurt from Aldi. 32 Oz under $4. Just a base for mixing in frozen berries, granola, and honey.

But Hill Country Fare cottage cheese swimming in soy sauce is easier.
94chem,

Excellent cheap high protein recovery with electrolytes. I love cottage cheese with soy sauce. Probably need to try mixing in some anchovies sometime.

Cottage cheese is also really good with the Seasoning in a Pickle from Trader Joe's.

I have to say, spending a little more to get the Good Culture cottage cheese is worth it. I'm usually all for store-brand, but I can tell a difference here.

If you really want to go crazy, have the dill pickle cottage cheese with some protein Doritos.

How much are you paying a pack?

I make a couple a week and not sure I see the value in a pack. My current go to's are peanut butter banana (I use pb2) and a tiramisu.

For the yogurt discussion, I also like Skyr. Skiggis and Central Market are both good.

If you're fortunate enough to live close to a Braum's, their Greek yogurt is great. Made with A2 milk, non fat, only 10 g of carbs (no added sugar), and 23 g of protein.

Well, I had to look that up, but my diet contains plenty of butter, beef, and salmon, so I reckon I'm good

Love Oikos triple zero vanilla.
I'm also loving Blue Bell's protein frozen dessert.

Seems like about $3.58 per pack.

I tried doing oats myself, but I hated it hot.

Big thing for me has been the flavors are solid and there's enough variety that I don't get tired of it.

You can do cold overnight oats, too. Same as a pack but cheaper and can customize.

For example, this morning I had oats, chia seeds, pb2, milk, yogurt, cinnamon, and banana. Made it last night and put in fridge overnight.
TXTransplant

This. I've been eating cold overnight oats for probably the last 8 years. When I switched to a high protein diet, I customized my recipe to maximize the protein.

226 g fat free plain Greek yogurt
480 g Mootopia fat free milk
60 g plain egg white protein powder
9 g powdered sugar free jello, flavor of choice (I like the cheesecake)
Splash vanilla
135 g oats (I like the Trader Joe's rolled oats with ancient grains and seeds - just make sure you DON'T use quick cooking oats)
36 g chia seeds.

Add in ~140 g of your fruit of choice and whatever flavors you like. Lately I've been doing fresh peaches and cardamom. I also do blueberry+cinnamon, cherry+chocolate (using cacao powder), and carrot cake (my fave - the shredded carrots give it a fantastic texture). Been thinking about coming up with a banana bread flavor.

Top with something crunchy. Lately I've been into pomegranate seeds and the Elizabeth sweet and salty granola. Toasted almonds or pecans, cacao nibs, and bare banana chips are all good.

Recipe above makes 4 servings of about 270 g each, 310 cal and 33 g protein, 31 g carbs, 6 g fat without the crunchy toppings. You could up the egg white protein if you want (or use some other kind of protein). Could also use higher fat yogurt and/or milk.

I've eventually found sugar free versions of everything that taste okay to me...except yogurt. Every sugar free yogurt I've ever tried (including the ones listed here) tastes really weird to me.

Whatever you do, don't fall for the Oikos Triple Zero probably has less sugar than the pro... it does NOT have less sugar - actually 2g more.
