Confession. One of my daughters is completely addicted to chocolate milk. What started so innocently as a special treat is now pleaded for (multiple million times) daily by the four-year-old junkie who lives in my house. I usually cave to keep the peace. Thankfully, a while back I learned about this miracle powder made by Amazing Grass Kidz that offers a healthy, quick-mix version of chocolate milk! The powder is organic, gluten-free and packed with 31 hidden fruits and veggies and I must tell you the taste comes pretty darn close to the real thing. I weave it in a few times a week as an alternative to the “real thing” and she loves it (and trust me, she is a very tough customer). You can find the brand at health food stores, Whole Foods or on-line. It also comes in Berry flavor.

I am so excited to try this, thank you so much! My husband and I (both WAY past 4!) love chocolate milk and the fact that it’s organic is really exciting!

As an avid green-drink drinker, I keep trying to get my picky toddler to partake with me but she won’t be fooled by the awful taste. So that’s why I got SO EXCITED when I read about this — until I saw their international shipping rates! Now I’m totally deflated.
If any of you are coming to Mallorca from the US, please bring an extra jar for me!!! ;o)
How much do I love you for this post?!?!?! My little one wasn’t on the charts for a long time b/c she is a naturally itsy bitsy peanut…but then she was also a picky eater. So I started to put Carnation Instant Breakfast in her milk once a day for the added nutrients at her pediatician’s suggestion. She thinks it’s chocolate milk so we have the same multiple pleas throughout the day. I’m so excited to read this and make the switch! Esp since it has hidden VEGGIES in it. Oh, how I love you!
My daughter loves this (both flavors)! I find it doesn’t dissolve as well in cow’s milk as it does in water, or other types of milk, but that doesn’t seem to bother her too much. It’s also a great addition to smoothies for an extra serving of greens.
