any suggestions better then this MRP?

[nikegurl]

Right now I use Whey protein after the gym.
I eat clean. I'm trying to get leaner and add some muscle.

My macros are at 50% protein 30% carb and 20% fat

For the convenience and also because I get sick of eating I have been using Labrada Low Carb Lean Body MRP for one "meal" during the day.

Here's the info:

230 calories
42 grams protein
2 grams fat
12 grams carbs

It's sort of expensive (though I know some like Myoplex are more)

Was wondering if anyone can suggest a product I could use that won't require a blender (the Labrada mixes really well just shaking it) that might be more economical but still convenient.

I don't mind if it's not in individual packets. Any ideas?

I suppose I could go with protein powder and have some fruit for a bit of carb (or is that a bad idea if I'm trying to get leaner)
Do any protein powders have enough carb in them to stand on their own as a meal without having to add anything? Any taste good and mix well and cost less then these MRPs?

You could eat a bar rather than a drink.

Try Vitamin Worlds MRP if there is a store near you.

check out proteinfactory.com - its one of the best online sites i have found for protein

i've decided to drop the mrp and use my other protein powder and add the carbs (frozen strawberries) and fat (2 Tbs whipping cream) to it myself. cheaper and better. don't like the sugars in the mrp. it's more flexible this way

That's what I do, smart choice.
