I’ll set the scene for you. It’s about 1:30 in the afternoon, Miss H has gone down for a nap and I have my 2ish hours of quiet until she wakes up. I usually split my time between getting chores done and vegging on the couch catching up on my latest Real Housewives. About this same time sweet tooth hits and it is DOVE® Chocolate Fruit & Nut to the rescue!

I like to keep my snacking in check to keep my health and fitness goals in place. I spend so much time at Pure Barre, I want my indulgences to also compliment my lifestyle. I love that I can take a better-for-you option and create the perfect snack. To keep my calories down, I like to create a snack mix that incorporates the DOVE® Dark Chocolate Blueberry & Vanilla Cashew with an assortment of other delicious goodies. Just one batch of this, and I have my sweet & salty treat to last all week.

 

Combine all in bowl and enjoy. Store in air tight container.

I find my DOVE® Chocolate Fruit & Nut in the candy section of Walmart. You can find an assortment of varieties, but I particularly like the DOVE® Dark Chocolate Blueberry & Vanilla Cashew, DOVE® Dark Chocolate Cranberries, and DOVE®  Roasted Almonds covered in Dark Chocolate. Call me crazy, but dark chocolate is my love language. 

With so many choices, DOVE® Chocolate Fruit & Nut are a great option to put this small indulgences in your life.  Tell me, how do you put small indulgences in your life?
