Breakfast
I am officially addicted to my big bowl of chocolate goodness.
If you love chocolate and have a sweet tooth that kicks in first thing in the morning, you should give this breakfast a try!
- 1/4 c. dry Flax-Z-Snax chocolate cream hot cereal (I buy this at Netrition.com)
- 1 scoop All the Whey chocolate peanut butter cup protein powder (I buy this at Nutraplanet.com)
- 1 tbsp. cocoa powder
- Water
I mix everything together before heating the mixture in the microwave for about a minute, stirring it up and heating it again for another 20 seconds or so. It “grows” in the microwave and becomes really thick. It really does taste like “healthified” brownie batter.
Ryan tried it this weekend and gave it a thumbs up, but said it was a little too chocolatey for him first thing in the morning (Ha! Too chocolatey… What is that?). Nothing is ever too chocolatey for me… at any time of the day.
