P90X Meal of the Week!(Desert)

Chocolate Covered Strawberries

You don’t have to shell out the big bucks at Godiva® to make it a romantic evening with your sweetie.  All you need is a microwave (or a double boiler), some dark chocolate (70% to 85% cacao solids), some strawberries, and some love. And if there’s a better way to show your love than with these two great sources of antioxidants, I’d like to hear it. In fact, if you’re single, this is a much better way to love yourself than with that pint of Ben and Jerry’s®

  • 1 dark chocolate bar (3 oz.), 70% to 85% cacao solids(Not Cheap but worth it)
  • 1 pint large strawberries (about a dozen)

Microwave chocolate in microwave-safe bowl, or melt in double boiler on stove.  Holding the strawberry by the stem, dip in melted chocolate to lightly coat. Set aside on plate or wax paper to cool.  When chocolate has hardened, serve (or if you can’t wait, dip and eat, and call it chocolate fondue!).  Serves 2.

Preparation time: 10 minutes

It’s weird because I don’t feel guilty when I know that I’m getting a good amount of protein and fiber out of chocolate covered strawberries.   Don’t eat these after 8 or 9 pm because it will sit in your stomach all night long.  You will then have to get up and work extra hard at Ab Ripper X and Plyometrics.  If your interested in more food recipes then check out my healthy meals page by clicking here.  If your already in shape with P90X and are looking for another way of selling your results to others then check out the affiliate programthat Beachbody offers.
