Premier Protein - A Review and Giveaway


Premier Protein sent me this awesome package to try out and review.  It contained a tee shirt, a nylon bag, 6 protein bars, and 4 protein shakes.  Not to mention it came in the most adorable packaging.  I am all about cute boxes and packaging.  Presentation is what I focus on when plating all of my recipes so I have learned to appreciate presentation in all things.

 This package came with 6 protein bars

2 - Double Chocolate Crunch - 23 net g carbs - 280 calories
2 - Chocolate Peanut Butter - 22 net g carbs - 290 calories
2 - Yogurt Peanut Crunch - 22 net g carbs - 290 calories

Each bar packs 30g of protein and contains 0 trans fat.  Due to the higher calorie count, these bars are meant to be eaten as a meal replacement or to only be eaten half at a time as a snack.  These bars are in a little high in carbs for me and as most of you know I have been sort of a protein bar snob in the past.  My husband did the taste testing on these for me. (I took a bite of each).  He loved them.  His favorite was the yogurt peanut crunch.  I would have to agree.


The package also included 4 protein shakes. 

2 - Chocolate - 2 net g carbs - 160 calories
2 - Vanilla - 1 net g carbs - 160 calories

These shakes are a lot lower in calories and carbs than the bars and were a perfect post workout out recovery shake for me.    They also have 30 g of protein and are low fat and have 24 vitamins and minerals.  Normally when I try protein shakes, I always like the chocolate varieties more than the vanilla.  To my surprise, I preferred the vanilla.  It was creamy, rich and delicious.  These are a nice low carb shake that you can find locally at Walmart or Sam Club as well as online HERE
