Cocoa and cinnamon shakers, my secret weapon.

I have two cleaned empty spice jars and keep a mixture in each. (Or I guess a couple of salt shakers would also work.) One is half cocoa mixed with swerve, the other half cinnamon and swerve. You can play with the ratios (or sweeteners) to your taste. I keep them barely sweetened, because I don’t want to encourage my sweet tooth.

I use these as little flavor changes to satisfy that craving for something different. I will sprinkle the top of my coffee, over berries, or the top of a dollop of whipped cream.

One of my favorite mini treats is to take tiny scoop of peanut butter and put some cocoa on it with a blackberry. (Yes, pb is very high in calories but the lesson is to eat it at maybe a teaspoonful at a time. It has such a strong flavor, that I feel like I ate so much more. 😉)
