I don't get why people think whey isn't a food. Do you say powdered milk isn't a food? Whey is barely different, it's just part of the milk, basically the by-product of cottage cheese production dried up because it's better than being wet and ikky.
I will readily admit its primarily unfamiliarity. Additionally, because it's marketed--and generally available--as a "supplement." And while little Miss Muffet seemed to enjoy hers with curds , I don't think she mixed a powder into her liquidy curds. These latter two factors combined make me question exactly what I'm getting from a whey canister.

In the book, on pages 80 to 82, I did include savory breakfest recipes such as omelets, breakfast burritos and fried eggs with Canadian bacon. Did you see those?
Absolutely! They look great; however, those are separate from the shakes and do not include the powder as part of their ingredients. If I'm supposed to drink/eat something with whey for recovery after working out, that would be in the morning, so it would naturally be part of my breakfast!

However, if you do prefer to eat a whole meal after your workout, that's ok. Just ensure it contains a complete protein source and a healthy complex carb source, especially if body recomposition is your goal.
What ideas did you have in mind?
I may just go with this, at least at first. Or I might just try downing whey with water... dunno. My main goal is to improve my overall body composition.
