I’ve figured out I have to record my food as I eat it or mess up the day. So here’s breakfast and I’ll add to it as the day progresses.
Chocolate yogurt and strawberries. I have a tip for this later, but right now we are late for school! I’ve been stirring powders like cocoa powder and peanut flour into my yogurt for awhile, and it’s really hard to get it smooth. I know I’m going to get mouthfuls of powder and while I’m okay with that, I feel badly recommending it to others.
With this tip, I should never get a mouthful of powder again–and it will also make it easier to add powders to Greek Yogurt without drying it out too much.
Mix your powders together in a bowl. My favorite blend is 1 Tbs stevia in the raw; 2 Tbs cocoa powder, and 1/4 cup of peanut flour. You can change the measurements to suit you. If you have the good kind of Dutch Cocoa powder only 1 Tbs is fine. And if you don’t need the extra protein or calories 2 Tbs of peanut flour still gives a nice peanut taste. Anyway, once your powders are combined, mix in enough water (about half the amount of the powder) to dissolve everything and make a paste. The cocoa takes awhile to mix in, just keep stirring. At this point you would have a great apple dip :). Or you can just stir it into your yogurt. No lumps, just smooth creamy choco-peanutty goodness.
