4. Hot Chocolate

A cup of hot chocolate feels like a warm hug on a cold day and it's tempting to turn to this comforting drink in the winter. When made from a packet of instant cocoa mix and some hot water, it's not a healthy snack. But when one makes hot chocolate from skim or low-fat milk and dark chocolate with just a bit of sweetener, it is a mug full of protein, calcium, and antioxidants. Enjoy the soothing power of chocolate without all the extra sugar.
