Default Protein Powder?

In less than a week or so, my protein powder (Gold Standard's Casein Powder, 0g Sugar) will be empty. I was wondering what others recommend as far as LC-friendly protein powder for gaining and maintaining lean muscle mass. This is not an area I've read about too much about with many of my low-carb books, like Protein Power, but I've experimented with what I think would be an LC-approach to muscle building.

Protein powder is to help people get extra protein when they can't eat enough protein in real food. It should be easy enough to get enough protein without powders especially on a low carb diet.
Since when was protein powder paleo anyway?

Oh stop being a Paleo cop

You should be able to get enough protein from the meats you are eating. I don't play with the powders myself.

I try to go more natural.

Remember Grok didn't have Powder

I'm ordering Isopure no carb powder. I know it's not very primal, but I'm really getting sick of eggs for breakfast. So a low glycemic fruit smoothie with coconut milk and this powder for breakfast is going to be implemented two or three times a week. For my own sanity of course.
