Frozen Mexican Hot Chocolate Shakeology

Last night I went to a friend's house and we decided to splurge and have a little cheat...some delicious Mexican Hot Chocolate!  It was so yummy.  It was homemade, which made it that much more scrumptious!

Anyone that knows me well, knows that I had a HOT CHOCOLATE ADDICTION before starting my healthy journey.  I used to have a mug of hot chocolate to unwind at the end of the night after the kids went to bed.  This wasn't just a Christmas treat...this was an every night treat from November to March.  Talk about chocolate/sugar/calorie overload! Whoa! And I wondered why I couldn't lose weight (I used skim).  Hindsight is 20/20.

So, this little treat last night reminded me how much I love hot chocolate, but I certainly do not want this huge addition of calories to my life for the winter months.  I needed a plan! I love frozen hot chocolate, just as much as the hot version.  This morning I decided to revamp my frozen hot chocolate recipe and make it healthier, something I could have whenever the cravings hit and not feel guilty about it. Mission Accomplished.


It's so easy and delicious! It definitely hit the spot! I know I will be making this many times this holiday season! 

Ingredients:

1 scoop Chocolate Shakeology
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 cup ice

Put all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Enjoy!

Happy Holidays!
