Jake Recipes

[Allis]

Hi! Is anyone making recipes from Jake? I have not tried yet, but it must be possible to use Jake another way. Share your recipes!

I found this: https://www.reddit.com/r/soylent/comments/4y3jzr/soylent_16_barrecipe_with_pictures/ which is made with Soylent 1.6 powder. I reckon that something similar should be possible with Jake. I don't feel like messing up a lot of Jake finding the right balance, but I might try it nevertheless. Will post results if I do.

Update: the recipe does work with Jake (Light). You need quite a bit more water; I think I used about 40 ml water with 1 package of Jake Light. The result is not great, but definitely edible. Kind of doughy. It could be nice if you'd add some cacao, but I'm sticking with the shake for now.

If you're looking for ways to flavour your Jake, you could try adding cacao or cinnamon. Or use milk/veg milk/fruit juice/coffee instead of water which is nice.

Hi everyone! I share here my favorite Jake recipe, hoping more people will do the same

• Jake Light
• 1 banana
• 1 greek light yogurt (no flavour added)
• 25g chocolate flavoured whey protein
• water
  (all this goes in the mixer)

I know it changes calories and macronutrients, but it's one of my goals, the other one being improving the taste (not that I don't like the original one). I'm a fit person, so I like to have control of my nutrition and Jake helps a lot with this.
With the recipe I shared, the overall intake is the following:
Calories (kcal): 800
Carbs (g): 68
Fat (g): 24
Protein (g): 75

It's a bit protein oriented, but I do high intensity workouts daily, so it fits my needs. I eat this for lunch (skipping breakfast), so at dinner I integrate the missing carbs and calories and food variety. If I want to increase carbs I add some oatmeal or corn flakes (not sweetened) to the recipe, which is great for the taste also. Sometimes I use blueberry yogurt, but this only for the taste, it has no nutrition benefits (on the contrary, it has more sugars).

What about you all? Other ideas to share?

75g protein in a single meal, champ

I'm currently on gomad, so to ease things up and because it's smoother anyways, I prepare Jake with milk. Super smooth. Interestingly, I've always seen milk as a good source of protein, hence the gomad, but I didn't really realise until just now how much sugar/lactose is in milk.

Also on Light - I reckon Light could be rebranded 'sports' due to its relatively high protein content - gives these specs:
* Calories (kcal): 700
* Carbs (g): 40
- Sugar (g): 25
* Fat (g): 22
* Protein (g): 55

Interesting, I didn't know about gomad. At the moment I'm on a calorie deficit regime, nothing further

Actually I don't understand the point of gomad. Are you underweight and want to gain some mass?

Sorry, this post is switching towards fitness/bodybuilding issues, but please keep posting more Jake recipes!

Gomad stands for gallon of milk a day. Basically means I'm just drinking milk all day to gain some weight. I'm not officially underweight, but could use a bit of mass and I have a hard time eating enough calories. Drinking them makes it quite easy. Milk and Jake help a lot.

Ik doe ook een handvol fruit door mijn shakes, zoals een halve banaan of frambozen. Kan ook bevroren fruit zijn, maakt het lekker koud. Beetje kaneel is ook heerlijk.
