My son Ian never really liked the taste of the soy formulas, so I came up with the following formula shake.
1/2 container Silk Soy Yogurt
3-4 scoops Formula (Enfimil)
6-8oz Vanilla Soy Milk
Combine all ingredients together until there is no more formula powder visible. If you are using one of the yogurts with fruit chunks in it you may want to use a blender to combine all the ingredients. I use a Magic Bullet to mix mine because it is quick and easy.
Since I started making his “smoothies” this way he has loved to drink his formula. I currently use the Next Step formula, and that is what the below nutritional information is based on.
