Love that song and love that scene in Top Gun! Goose warms my heart. 😉
Today’s lunch was a great bowl o’ chocolate, in the form of brownie batter hot cereal.
Into the mix went:
- 1 tbsp. cocoa powder
- 1 scoop All the Whey chocolate peanut butter cup protein powder
- 1/2 serving Flax-Z-Snax chocolate cream hot cereal
- Water
After nukin’ it up for about a minute and a half (and stirring regularly), I had one heck of a rich and chocolatey lunch.
This concoction seriously reminds me of brownie batter. Love it.
Speaking of sweet treats, I see a trip to Mochi for some frozen yogurt in my near future… It’s becoming a bit of a Friday staple, I think.

The best thing about this weekend is that I dont have to drive ANYWHERE. First weekend in 6-7 weeks that I am staying put inside my little bubble.
Run, pool/sunshine time, wedding shower with MEXICAN FOOD!, more pool/sunshine time, and sleep. Glorious sleep. 🙂 Oh and MAYBE a movie! I want to see The Backup Plan!

I really wanna try chocolate oats and use cocoa powder! How much do you recommend I use so I can taste the cocoa?
peanutbutterfingers says
you will definitely be able to taste it if you add a tablespoon. you can start w/ a smaller amount and add more to taste. 🙂
