I was thinking of using 2 scoops of UMP with a banana to use as a meal replacement instead of buying the typical packaged MRP's such as Lean Body. Would this be a good substitute for that or even better?

Of course it would be better!! Here's what you need to know:

-The banana is ok, but if you're trying to lean out, it may stall a little.

-Do not eat more than 1 banana a day. Potassium overload is a possibility.

-Many of the other products are ok but I feel they're not quite the quality of Beverly.

What would you recommend I use instead of the banana? Should I just go with 2 scoops of UMP or add something else for more carbs?

I usually just go with the UMP by itself and then get my carbs in my other meals. You could however add some frozen strawberries. Another suggestion would be to combine 1 scoop of UMP with 1 scoop of Muscle Provider.
