Perfect way to finish the evening...warm milk

Whoever said that warm milk helps you sleep was right...at least for me. 1 cup of steaming low-fat milk with a touch of spice packs protein and carbohydrates at a perfect balance. My favorite steamer is simple!

Spiced Milk
Ingredients:

1 to 1 1/2 cups low fat milk
1/4 to 1/2 tsp. of spice (cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, apple pie spice, or nutmeg)
Directions:
Heat milk in the microwave for 1 minute and stir, add spice, and heat for an additional 1 minute or until steaming. The sugar in milk, lactose is sweet enough for me, but for those of you who desire a touch of sweet add a drop of honey or molasses to finish your steamer off. Yum! Good-night y'all!
