Well, I don't put oatmeal in my shake, but I do make a meal out oatmeal that is really good, really high in protein, and really good for you. All you do is make up a cup of oatmeal, add to hit a scoop to a scoop and 1/2 of your favorite protein powder, 1-2 tablespoons of peanut butter, and perhaps a tablespoon of flax, mix all of this together, and waaala! It will look pretty weird, but if you do it with a great tasting chocolate whey protein, it tastes awesome. Definitely give this one a shot. A lot of good calories in there and it doesn't take anymore than 5-10 minutes to make up.

yeah it makes it a little thicker, and gives it a different taste.. Try it

Here's what I do:

1/2 cup oats
1 1/2 cups skim milk
2 scoops Optimum 100% Pure Whey, Chocolate.

Throw that all in a blender, hit liquify, and let it go.

Makes for a fast breakfast. It's not really thicker, but I like it better than making it hot.

Someone else on the boards posted this originally, I think, so I can't claim credit for it.

IS IT TRUE THAT OPTIMUM CHOC. TASTES DIFFERENT SOMETIEMES? I S EAS CHOCOLATE TATIER? AND THE EXP DATE IS 1 YEAR FROM NOW IN GNC AND I DUnNO//HOW FAST DOES POWDER GO NEWAYZ

I use Chocolate Designer with oatmeal and peanut butter. Turns out pretty good.

I've never noticed any variance in the flavor of Optimum chocolate.

Personally, I think the EAS stuff is overpriced. I've tried a few other brands, and I still like the Optimum best.

unless the shake itself is thick the oats will settle on the bottom. using uncooked oats also further lowers the GI. I've been doing it for 18 years.
