Hungry Girl's Creamy Coffee To Go

ne of the things I love about Hungry Girl is their creativity in putting together different foods to make delicious snacks and desserts. Check out another part of Hungry Girl's Hot Couples list with their Creamy Coffee To Go

SO perfect. Just keep these cute packets of instant coffee and powdered creamer on hand at all times (perfect for your purse/briefcase/knapsack), and you'll never be more than 30 seconds and a hot cup of water away from a crazy-delicious, 60-calorie coffee drink. And if you get bored before you get to use them, you can take out the packets and make them dance with each other... or recreate scenes from your favorite movie! But if you find yourself doing this, it's probably a pretty good indicator that you need a cup of coffee, STAT.
