I always enjoyed a little warm drink around the campfire, but I had a hard time finding a replacement for the good-old packages of hot chocolate mixes that have trans-fat in them.
NESTLE HOT COCOA INGREDIENTS: SUGAR, CORN SYRUP SOLIDS, VEGETABLE OIL (PARTIALLY HYDROGENATED COCONUT OR PALM KERNEL AND HYDROGENATED SOYBEAN), DAIRY PRODUCT SOLIDS (FROM MILK), COCOA PROCESSED WITH ALKALI, AND LESS THAN 2% OF SALT, CELLULOSE GUM, SODIUM CASEINATE, POTASSIUM PHOSPHATE, SODIUM CITRATE, SODIUM ALUMINOSILICATE, MONO- AND DIGLYCERIDES, GUAR GUM, ARTIFICIAL FLAVORS, SUCRALOSE. MADE ON EQUIPMENT THAT ALSO PROCESSES SOY AND WHEAT.
Harvard scientists studied Trans-Fat vs. Saturated Fat. All they were studying was heart disease, they weren't even thinking about a weight gain issue.
•Group A and B consumed same calories and fat
–Group A = Trans-fat
–Group B = Saturated-fat
Surprised to find…Group A gained 3 times as much weight!!! »A calorie isn’t just a calorie!
2 oz (2 squares) unsweetened chocolate
1/3 cup Swerve (or erythritol and 1 tsp stevia glycerite)
4 cups unsweetened almond milk or 2 cans coconut milk
1/2 tsp Celtic sea salt
1/2 tsp vanilla
Place chocolate, sweetener, milk, and salt in a 2-quart saucepan or crockpot over medium-low heat. Heat, stirring, until chocolate melts and mixture is well blended. Add vanilla and serve. Makes 4 servings.
NUTRITIONAL COMPARISON (per serving)
Traditional Hot Chocolate = 283 calories, 15.3g fat, 9g protein, 32 carbs, 2.3g fiber
"Healthified" Hot Chocolate = 113 calories, 10g fat, 3g protein, 6.3 carbs, 3.4g fiber
