I’ve been dreaming of sharing this recipe with you. It’s one that we’ve been eating on repeat at our house… because CHOCOLATE MILK ZUCCHINI WAFFLES!
My son LOVES this chocolate milk zucchini waffles.
I LOVE this chocolate milk zucchini waffles.
and when I make it with gluten free flour my hubby LOVES these chocolate milk zucchini waffles too.
So good.
Oh and perks of making this recipe is there is extra creamy delicious chocolate milk leftover to sip off all week long (errrrr… like for two days at our chocolate milk drinking rate).
This recipe is one that I’m proud to serve to my family (especially my toddler) who makes getting quality protein and veggies in his tummy a challenge.
I drank lots of chocolate milk when I was pregnant with my son (maybe that’s why he loves Chocolate Milk Zucchini Waffles) and now that my running mileage has picked up again after a long postpartum siesta, chocolate milk is making a comeback in my diet.
It’s a great post workout drink thanks its perfect combination of carbohydrates and protein to help replenish energy and build muscle.
Basically it cures the RUNGRIES.
Have you guys tried a2 Milk® yet? a2 Milk® Chocolate 2% Reduced Fat Milk is my absolute fav… it’s insanely good, 100% real milk that is made with Dutch process cocoa, which provides a rich and creamy taste and is full of essential nutrients like calcium and vitamin D for strong bones, and potassium and magnesium for electrolytes and a healthy blood pressure.
If you usually have tummy troubles, when you drink milk, give a2 Milk® a try! What is a2 milk®, you might be asking yourself?
Well, it’s milk from cows that only produce the A2 protein making it naturally easy to digest. Thanks to a2 Milk®, people with milk sensitivities, including perceived lactose intolerance, can now enjoy the taste and nutritional benefits of real dairy milk.
Personally I don’t experience any tummy bloat with a2 Milk®, and it tastes so smooth. Big fan!
The a2 Milk Company™ makes a complete line of 100% real, naturally easy to digest milk including Whole, 2%, 1% and Chocolate 2% Reduced Fat Milk that even those with milk sensitivities can enjoy. Additionally, a2 Milk® is completely free of any added hormones, rBST and antibiotics so you can feel good about giving it to your family.
Oh and get excited Florida peeps…a2 milk® is the leading milk brand in Australia and recently launched in Florida in Publix Stores.
