South Beach Update: Cookin’ Breakfast on the Beach

You know, I’ve been sharing all these wonderful recipes for dinner foods, but South Beach is all about lifestyle and that includes breakfast.  So, for the next few weeks, I’ll share with you some of what have become my favorites for breakfast.

Today, you get an oldie but goodie.   What I love most about it is it’s CHOCOLATE.  And it’s a SHAKE.  But don’t tell my tastebuds that it’s good for me.   I just love the fact that I can tell myself I’m having a chocolate shake for breakfast…and still be “on a diet.”  Yay for me!  Now, if I could only figure out a way to make Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups legal, I’d think I’d died and gone to heaven.
