This is a delicious super fast breakfast that is big on protein and low on calories. Knowing I can have one of these in the morning, makes it easier to get up when the alarm goes off!
I’m not an advocate of drinking coffee and if you want to make this without it, it will be a delicious giant hot cocoa (still yummy.) My doctor asked me to try a bit of coffee in the mornings because I have such low blood pressure. If I just use a tiny bit, it does seem to help.
