Chocolate for Breakfast

Jan 24, 2012 | From the Kitchen | 7 comments

I’m knocking these resolutions out of the park. . .

Dark Chocolate Oatmeal

3/4 cups Quick Oats (not instant oatmeal)

1 Cup milk (I use organic 1%)

1 oz dark chocolate (I use Ghriadelli 60% Dark Chocolate Chips)

Prepare oatmeal (with chocolate and milk) on cook top, bring to boil and then simmer until oatmeal is tender. Top with a few extra chocolate chips and raspberries. Share, only if you must. (technically 2 servings)

Rejoice: it’s chocolate for breakfast.

    Whoa!!! That looks delicious! And, it gives me that feeling of when you know something is unavoidable, when it is destined to be a reality in your life, it’s out of your control. 🙂

    YUM! That reminds me of those no-bake cocoa, oats, and peanut butter cookies. Ut-oh – major craving coming on! Thanks 😉

      Ooh, we used to eat those all the time as kids. So good and slightly addictive. As in, I can eat a whole batch all by myself, addictive. Sheesh, I need to go to the gym, I just gained weight talking about those things. 😀
