The Dark Side Of Nutrition
For a delicious treat that is high in nutrients and antioxidants we'll have to travel to the dark side. No, we are not meeting Darth Vadar for lunch although eating these might just lighten him up a bit. I guess in some instances even the dark side has a silver lining....enjoy!
Dark Chocolate Cherries
3 ounces of a really good dark chocolate
1 cup of dried tart cherries
Put chocolate in a bowl and microwave for 1 minute stirring halfway through. Remove the bowl from microwave and stir in the cherries. Spread out on a wax paper lined baking sheet and put them in freezer until firm (about 10 min.).
Keep in air tight container in cool place always ready for snacking.
FYI - this works really well with dried blueberries, of course you can dip anything your heart desires, it's chocolate after all!
