Ninja Creami Recipe for Creamy Vanilla

I spent so much time and tested countless versions of Vanilla

. I tried protein powders, protein shakes, cottage cheese, vanilla pudding, you name it. It either tasted like a protein shake or simply awful and went down the drain. By chance, I bought QUEST Vanilla protein powder for my morning protein shakes. I hated it - it was simply too sweet for me to drink. I did not think about it much, set the protein powder aside, figuring I would get around to adding little bits to my morning routine.

Then one day it hit me. My Ninja Creami Vanilla recipe needed to be more sweet and I wanted it to be high protein. On a whim, I tried the QUEST Vanilla protein shake mix. Initially, it was just too sweet! Then, I decided to "cut it" by adding one of my favorite protein shake powders I use almost every day in my morning routine. The result?

A perfect Vanilla Ninja Creami.

The combination of the super sweet (sickeningly sweet if I tried using as a morning shake) QUEST Vanilla and the Prolific Isolate protein powder, along with some vanilla extract to me was the perfect balance. Not too sweet and it did not taste too much like a protein shake. Whole milk is also one of the keys. 

This, to me, is the perfect high protein vanilla creami recipe, hands down. And, it's a great base for so many of my great mix-ins and toppings on this page. This is my go-to recipe and I normally have 2-4 Creami containers filled and frozen with it at all times.
