This drink can be enjoyed with or without chocolate. It's all done in
the microwave. Ingredients: Water Soy Milk (low carb-my favorite is Kirkland Organic Plain Soymilk 8 gr. carb per cup from Costco. Westsoy has a similar product at Trader Joe's) Hershey's Natural Unsweetened Cocoa Green Tea Bag Ground Nutmeg Ground Cinnamon Sweetener -------------------- Directions: Place green tea bag into microwaveable cup 3/4ths full of water and zap for 3:00 minutes or whatever your oven requires. When done, add a teaspoon or more of cocoa to a second cup and add a little hot tea from first cup to dissolve cocoa. Stir. Remove tea bag from first cup, add dissolved cocoa to tea in first cup. Sprinkle in nutmeg and cinnamon. Add sweetener and stir. Pour in 1/4 cup of soy milk and stir. Reheat in microwave for 20 seconds if desired. Enjoy. This is also terrific without the cocoa. This is my number-one between meal snack that keeps the weight off. |

I suspect that this drink works well for weight control due to the following: the blend of small amounts of carb, fat and protein in the soy milk which helps achieve satiety, plus any alleged appetite suppressant effect from the green tea that we read about. Also, there's the anti-oxidant bonus if all the green tea propaganda is true. |
