What are you guys that are using MTN OPS Ammo mixing it with or are you going plain?

I started Day 1 today and had Ammo with a small sandwich for lunch and was curious if mixing it with juice or something helps give it a bit of flavor. It reminded me of thin cream of wheat with a very slight sweet vanilla flavor that might be good with a plain almond/soy milk (I'm lactose intolerant so no real milk for me)

As a side note I was surprised how full I feel now about 1hr after drinking it...probably should have had half of a small sandwich instead.

I drink it plain. At first it was weird tasting, but just the other day I drank some of my old protein (ON 100% whey chocolate) and it was so sweet tasting I could hardly choke it down. For me it was an acquired taste that happened pretty quickly, now I love it.

It's really good mixed in pancakes

Packet Bare oatmeal
Handful crunched walnuts
Scoop Ammo protein
Cinnamon
Nutmeg
1 egg
1/4C almond milk
Enough liquid egg whites to get right consistency

Fry 1 big pancake in a little coconut oil and top with blueberries

Delicious!

I started it a week ago and have just been mixing it with plain almond milk. I actually like the flavor and agree that it is surprisingly filling.

I second the pancakes. Very good. I also take it straight. At first I didn't care for it but now it's really good. Like bright white said, other proteins are now too sweet.

Wow I like the pancake idea! I discovered that while I was full with Ammo this early in the game I didn't get enough calories for my afternoon workout and crashed...hard It took a solid hour to regain my composure. Looks like it may become breakfast with a good lunch.

So far I've been very happy with Ammo, and have been typically mixing with 8-10oz of chocolate soy milk. Would be interesting to mix in some PB2 for an added peanut butter flavor.

Though, I haven't used Ammo for pancakes, I have used other whey protein powders and have really liked the results. I usually mix two bananas and a half cup of protein power and then cook with either ghee or coconut oil (be careful with cooking temps!), and if I want to be adventurous I will add nuts, berries, and / or chocolate to the mix. Ceby7's recipe looks like it is a winner...

try the vanilla with orange juice in the morning, tastes like a dreamsicle! The pancake recipe sounds great!

I had some V8 Peach/Strawberry Refresher Stuff in the fridge that I mixed and it was pretty dang good. I'm going to look for an alternative without sugar.

After 3 days, I can't say I don't like any of the MTN OPS products but don't know what the Renu is supposed to actually do. It was part of the package so I'll continue to take it.

I have never been able to stomach any protein shakes with water. I use regular milk, but the almond milk sounds tasty!
