I take gelatin every day. I usually have gelatin tea. I dissolve one tablespoon of gelatin in hot water and then throw a tea bag in to steep. Tea is not the best for covering the gelatin flavor. If I was a coffee drinker it would be much easier to drink my daily gelatin. Coffee completely masks any unpleasant flavor. I have coffee on occasion, but I would rather have hot chocolate for something special. There are times when I want something more decadent than tea.

Single Serving Healing Hot Chocolate

• 1 tablespoon gelatin*
• 2 tablespoons organic sugar
• 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
• pinch of salt
• 12 oz unsweetened almond/coconut milk
• 1 tsp vanilla

Stir together gelatin, sugar, cocoa and salt in a large mug.  Stir in one tablespoon of milk to make a paste. Slowly stir in rest of milk. Microwave for 1 minute, stir and heat one more minute or until desired temperature. Stir in vanilla and enjoy.

*For fabulous vegan hot chocolate just leave out the gelatin.

Hot chocolate and toast (sigh).

We used to have hot chocolate and toast on Sunday evenings. We would have a large Sunday dinner in the afternoon and then hot chocolate, fruit and toast for supper.
