RECIPE: Protein-Powered Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate

My latest craze is this metabolic-boosting, high-protein Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate. It takes two minutes to prepare, needs three ingredients, and packs over 30 grams of “clean” protein. It’s rich and creamy and hits the spot on cold mornings or when you need comfort food!  

Developing healthier habits is the secret to lasting weight loss, but that doesn't need to include depriving yourself of delicious foods or drinks. LynFit is all about improving nutrition deliciously. Finding new ways to incorporate clean protein into your favorite foods and beverages changes everything, prevents cravings before they begin, and will keep you feeling fuller longer and more satisfied.

LynFit recently introduced a new Peanut Butter Protein Powder to our superstar Metabolic-Boosting Protein lineup. We always try new recipes using our delicious protein powders in our house. 

My husband and  24-year-old son want to pack lean muscle, and my 30-year-old daughter and I want the opposite of weight gain. Yet we all have a common health goal: to stay as healthy as possible. Regardless of your goal, it always starts with cleaning up your diet and improving your nutrient intake.

Prioritizing protein intake is step one, whether you want to gain weight or lose weight and burn fat. The only thing that changes is the amount you consume daily. If your goal is weight loss and fat burning, aim for 1-1.5 grams of clean protein per pound of lean body mass. If your goal is weight gain, protein intake should be increased to two grams per pound of lean body mass. 

If you're trying to find new ways to healthfully feed your family, begin with protein, which organically reduces blood sugar spikes and lowers carb intake) you're going to love this recipe!
