I dont know why I didn't think of this sooner! This is one of my most exciting posts yet simply because it saves me a lot of time and about $4 by not having to go to Starbucks.
My dad makes a pot of coffee every morning and there are always a few cups left over. If you dont usually have leftover coffee just make a little bit extra, or make an extra cup in your keurig first thing and put it right into the refrigerator.
I love the individual Hood brand non-fat chocolate milk cartons for 69 cents each. They are great because they are already portioned (1 cup) and I can take them on the go if I need to. You can find them with all of the other milk products at the grocery store.
So here it is- the simplest and greatest thing I have thought of in a long time...combine your chilled leftover coffee and 1 single serve carton of chocolate milk, add ice, mix, and enjoy! Instant non fat Starbucks Cafe Mocha and a great post workout drink too!
Homemade Starbucks Iced Cafe Mocha
Total time 2 minutes...seriously...
Serves 1
8 oz. chilled coffee
8 oz. fat free chocolate milk
ice
Combine coffee and milk over ice and mix well.
I believe that everyone has the right to fuel their bodies with healthy and whole foods without being obsessive or sacrificing taste and quality. This blog is a way for me to share my love for food and cooking with you and to inspire you to get cooking too! Enjoy your food, enjoy your life, enjoy fitting into those skinny jeans!

Strawberry Ricotta Waffles
Two of these waffles make a delicious healthy breakfast or have only 1 as an afternoon snack or light dessert!
Strawberry Ricotta Waffles

2 Vans lite frozen waffles toasted
