When i bake with protein powder i like to use the "cheaper" stuff that you can find at wal-mart near the pharmacy. It's about $15-20 per tub. And for my shakes i use the "better" stuff like Gold Standard Whey or Muscle Pharm Combat :) That way if im experimenting with a new recipe and it's a total fail I dont feel so bad for wasting it!

You may be asking yourself why all of these recipes include flax seed, and what is it. Well, here is a website that explains the benefits that go along with it:
