Trust me when I say this, if it were upto me, I'd eat chocolate EVERYDAY for breakfast, lunch and dinner, but let's be honest, it wouldn't be healthy
If you are like me and we have a similar school of thought, trust me you would wanna try this. These are gooey, healthy, and did I mention extremely chocolatey?
What if I told you they were only 88 calories each piece? You wouldn't believe me would you? But you gotta. I've now been having them for breakfast almost everyday now for 4 weeks straight. And i'm not kidding. These are low-key really delicious!!
Never have I ever been a fan of cooked oats or over-night oats or any type of oats. But wait for it. I'm a big fan of baked oats. Especially something with chocolate. Hmmmm!! Yummmm!!
