There are lots of options for having chocolate for breakfast: Chocolate milk, chocolate flavored cereal, chocolate bars, chocolate covered espresso beans, chocolate covered raisins, chocolate ice cream, and etc. So, do you have chocolate for breakfast? If so, what kinds?

Shalom nonew3, I think the closest I have had chocolate for breakfast is in a poptart. I would rather have fruit for breakfast and leave the chocolate for the rest of the day..lol

Shalom. Have you considered having chocolate-covered fruit for breakfast, such as strawberries dipped in chocolate, or chocolate-covered raisins? It might be a bit more nutritious than a Pop Tart, and you would still have chocolate for breakfast. Since breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and chocolate is easily the most important food, what a waste to not have chocolate for breakfast!

I wonder if chocolate covered strawberries might taste better than the poptarts? Now I'm curious. LOL

I do sometimes. Occasionally, even a chocolate candy bar left over from the night before, breakfast is usually a grab what you can find affair. I do like chocolate cereals and sometimes add nestles quik to my coffee instead of cream and sugar, it makes the coffee a wonderful rich brown and takes good as well. I have quite the choclate addiction going on. :P

You are truly an expert at what I call "life chocolating." Truly an inspiration. So, how long did it take to build up this chocolate addiction to what you now have? Chocolate for breakfast is what I consider to be a GREAT starting point in life chocolating. It gives the blood a good brownish color (from chocolate) to start the day. I think chocolate attaches to the hemoglobin in blood cells or something. I'm sure it must. LOL Those who are truly chocoholics, our blood is a dark brown color, truly in proportion to our amount of chocolate consumption.

Maybe this is why I LOVE chocolate, and why, when I eat eat, I feel like it LOVES me or something? Love and chocolate so go together. And, I was only kidding about the chocolate bonding to hemoglobin. But, it does seem that chocolate very much becomes a part of us. They say that we are what we eat. I eat chocolate. Therefore, I *AM* chocolate! LOL

LOL, well, I think I have an inbuilt chocolate addiction gene or something. I know I've craved it at least since mt teens. It does seem to go in waves though, currently I'm on a sever craze alert level. I'm not sure about bonding with hemoglobin, but I do know there is a chemical in chocolate that is present in the brain when someone feels loved. I learned this in fourth grade and never forgot. See what I mean about an inbuilt craving?

When I was in Denmark it was not uncommon for us to start the morning off with a thick slab of bread covered with a thin layer of chocolate. Here in Canada it's hard to find that kind of chocolate but there are a few really good Danish places where it can be found.

Oh, I totally understand your problem. Eating chocolate causes a person to gain weight. I wish there were a way to eat trulty healthy chocolate without gaining weight. Until such a thing exists, I will have to exercise hard every time I eat chocolate.

I don't believe in having those kinds of chocolate for breakfast. But I do prefer to have hot chocolate in the morning, to start the day. I always say that it's my coffee lol, I need it. It helps clear my head and wake me up. Or, I think it does anyways.

No, I've never really liked whipped cream on my hot chocolate (nevermind that it's an extra I can't usually afford), besides, when I DO have whipped cream I'm usually too busy spraying it in my mouth and eating it to think about making hot chocolate lol.

Hi nonew3, I don't think I've ever had chocolate for breakfast, unless it's been a chocolate covered donut, many years ago. I tend to have cereal, toast, muffin, fruit, or cereal bar, and in the colder months, oatmeal. Sometimes, on the weekends my daughter and I have 'brunch' which we make together, that consists of the usual hot breakfast foods. However, I do really like chocolate, and will treat myself to a chocolate bar, every now and again, or another form. I like chocolate milk too. Have a good day.

Thanks for the offer. Actually, I did have some chocolate about a week ago, as I purchased a couple of chocolate bars from a little friend. They were having a school fundraiser. I also enjoy hot chocolate, and since the cold weather's approaching, will be partaking of this soon. I guess the one time of the year I have quite a bit of chocolate, is the holiday season, as it's always a special treat then, and I ask people to give me my favourites.

I suggest that you try chocolate-ing your life a bit more. Chocolate cereal and chocolate milk for breakfast is a start. You might want to go easy at first, and slowly work up to a powerful addiction, maybe by adding 1/2 ounce of chocolate cereal to your breakfast regimen, and slowly build up from there by adding another 1/2 ounce each week. Start with 4 ounces of chocolate milk, and then add 1/2 ounce per week. Then, after a month, try eating just 1/8 of a chocolate bar. The kind of chocolate addiction I have took considerable time and effort to build, and I am very proud of my success in this matter. It's one of my many success stories. Do give it a whirl, and let me know how it goes. If you need help further in how to choco-late (verb) your life, or what I call "life chocolating," please do not hesitate to let me know.

I've honestly never heard of that one. Too bad I have never seen an organic version of it. Sounds yummy! I'm very much into organic food, by the way.

Yes, sometimes I DO have chocolate at breakfast and it's very enjoyable. I love coco krispies and chocolat chip cookie crisp cereal so I eat those frequently. Sometimes I'll have a granola bar with chocolate. I also love hot chocolate or a mocha coffee drink at breakfast. Ooooh and can't forget chocolate shakes. Those are yummy too.

here are some recipes for champorado that i have search for you... anyway i eat usually champorado not during breakfast but during afternoon snacks or dinner... =) they say that champorado is a rice pudding but it does not look like pudding to me. it is more on of a congee this one is from recipezaar.com Champorado (Chocolate Rice Pudding) Recipe #132659 6 ratings This is a favorite Filipino recipe. My dad used to make it for me all the time growing up. A variation can be done by adding some peanut butter (creamy or chunky). It's like eating a Peanut Butter Cup for breakfast! You can use the condensed milk. Personally, I prefer to use regular milk (I usually use 2% or less). The pudding becomes very thick and the lighter milk helps to "loosen" it. It's almost like eating "chocolate oatmeal." It can be eaten as a snack or dessert as well. Sweet rice can be found in most Asian aisles of a grocery store. However, if they don't have it there you can find it at an Asian supermarket. It is sold in 1lb. & 5lb. bags. If you have trouble finding it, just ask a clerk. They're generally very helpful 1 cup sweet rice or rice 2 1/2 cups water 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract sweetened condensed milk (optional) 1. Cook Rice in a medium-size saucepan with water. 2. Stir constantly. 3. When rice is ready, rice should be somewhat transparent and it'll feel thicker as you stir. 4. Add the balance of ingredients except milk. 5. Serve in bowls with swirls of milk on top. ------------------------------- from cdkitchen Champorado Ingredients: 1 cup glutinous (sweet/sticky) rice 2 1/2 cups water 1/2 cup (more or less to taste) unsweetened cocoa 1/2 cup (more or less to taste) sugar 1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract some sweetened condensed milk Cook rice in a medium-sized saucepan with 2 1/2 cups water. Stir constantly. When rice is ready (rice should be somewhat transparent), add cocoa, sugar and vanilla. Serve in bowls with swirls of sweet condensed milk on top.

I'll take chocolate ANY time! I've had chocolate for breakfast as: Instant Breakfast; chocolate milk; Ovaltine; chocolate Pop Tarts; chocolate cookies; chocolate cake; hot cocoa; chocolate meal replacement bars; and anything else in the house that is chocolate. Now, I don't always have chocolate for breakfast, even though it looks like it. I usually have toast with peanut butter. :-)

It's good to get the chocolate eating done before doing anything else. It's really that important.
