One of my New Year’s resolutions was to eat a little healthier and be more consious of what I am putting in my body. I’m really proud of myself, because I’ve actually embraced my resolutions this year instead of writing them down and failing after one week. The key for me is not making my goals unattainable. For instance, instead of having a bag of chips as an afternoon snack or a bagel with cream cheese for breakfast, I enjoy what I like to call my Dark Chocolate Cherry Blueberry Snack Mix! I mix nuts, which are full of good fats, vitamins and protein with some DOVE® Fruit dipped in dark chocolate. I enjoy the healthiness of the nuts and fruit with a little dark chocolate, which cures my chocolate craving. Since I’m not depriving myself of something that I love…chocolate, it’s much easier to stick to the healthier snack option.
These fabulous DOVE® Fruits come in 3 fabulous options…whole cherries, whole blueberries and whole cranberries! As the #1 solid dark chocolate on the market, the unique, silky-smooth taste of DOVE® Dark Chocolate lives up to people’s expectations of what chocolate should taste like. DOVE®Fruit uses a delicious combination of real fruit dipped in silky smoothDOVE® Dark Chocolate, and have quickly become my go to option when I feel like I need a little treat, but don’t want to cheat.
It’s so simple to make your own snack mix using these fabulous fruits! I simply throw them in a bowl with some store bought mixed nuts and enjoy! I love adding them to cereal too! I am less likely to crave sugary cereal if I just plop a few DOVE®Fruit in with my wheat flakes or oatmeal and enjoy!
