Stirred a scoop into my morning shake and it actually kept me full until lunch, which never happens. The 400 calories per serving are spot-on for busy days when I need a quick meal without thinking about it.

The vanilla flavor mixes up smooth with just water, no clumps at all. I've swapped my lunch for this about four times a week and the vitamin and mineral coverage makes it feel like a real meal, not a shake.

Three minutes in the microwave and I've got a full meal that actually keeps me full until dinner, which is more than I can say for most desk lunches. The vitamin and mineral coverage is exactly what I was looking for when I started skipping breakfast.
