    I liked this and used chocolate protein powder instead of cocoa mix. Great tasting and protein and very filling. - 11/25/12

    A little sweet for me... thinking that perhaps less chocolate next time. - 9/30/11

    I make this all the time but I add PB2 in the mix! - 9/8/11

    For more grown-up tastes, I use a tablespoon of dry cocoa powder instead of the cocoa mix. The dried fruit or cut-up fresh fruit add just enough sweetness to give me my dark-chocolate fix for the day! - 8/30/11

    I make my oatmeal with skim or 1% milk instead of water, and put the craisins or raisins in the bowl to cook with the oatmeal. - 6/5/11
