My new favorite stuff: protein hot chocolate

I know my WLS peers have mentioned this in the past, but I just stumbled across the most amazing/delicious thing - protein hot chocolate and it is nothing short of amazing.

What I did:
1 packet Swiss Miss diet hot chocolate (25 calories/4 gms carbs per serving)
1 scoop Jay Robb protein
water

I put a cup of water, the hot chocolate powder, and the protein powder in the magic bullet and blended. I poured it into a mug and popped it in the microwave till hot. This made the foam created from bulletizing it firm up almost like the froth on a latte or the schlag served on hot chocolate at my local european coffeehouse. I am in love.

I keep checking MFP. Certainly there must be a mistake here. This has GOT to be more than 135 calories and 5 gms carbs.

Feeling like I am getting away with something here and fully admitting I'm late to the game...

I've yet to "perfect" the perfect protein hot chocolate but I gotta try this.  It sounds yummy!!!

When you heated it up, it didn't clump up or anything?  It sounds pretty good! 

I like the Swiss Miss diet hot chocolate...it is a great substitute for the Starbucks skinny hot chocolates I used to get. :)

It didn't clump. I think the secret is not to get it over 140 degrees. I can't tell you how many times I have added protein powder to hot coffee before adding cream and end up with what looks like scrambled eggs in coffee. yecccch.

I follow Bariatric Foodies tips on making the hot chocolate and have never had it clump on me.

My favorite is Salted Caramel Protein Hot Chocolate. Make your Hot Chocolate but add some sugar free caramel syrup and sea salt. Yum!!
