Sweet and Salty { treat }

by Healthy Diva on December 5, 2011

 

I had a sweet and salty craving this afternoon.

I think it was due to feeding my nephews sweet and salty craving I satisfied for him…

I love him so much and love giving him a sugar high, his mom loves me for that too  ;-)

I came home after hanging out with him today and made a little treat for me.

Dark Chocolate Covered Edamame

2 simple ingredients - 

edamame and dark chocolate 

Preparation- Take 3 squares of dark chocolate, put in bowl and heat in microwave for about  1.5 minutes. When melted, mix in some edamame , put in fridge too cool for 15-20 minutes and enjoy!

*some microwaves higher watts, watch chocolate carefully so you do not burn it!

Trader Joe’s has nothing on my easy at home treat  :-D

Have a great night loves!

Katie  :mrgreen:

Ah this looks awesome! Maybe a little salt sprinkled on top would be good, too? ;)

Well the edamame is salted so I didn’t ; )

The only downside to covering things in chocolate is washing the melting bowl after! :)

I love this! unfortunately, my body is not a fan of soy – but I’m sure I can find something else to dip in melted chocolate. Like, my finger :)

Thats an interesting combo! I’ve never seen the dried edamame before!

The dried is good for a snack, I figured why not cover them in chocolate, I always see those chocolate covered ones at trader joe’s!

Hope the pup had a good night, I know how you feel, Im a worry wart too!

Woah that combo sounds AHMAZING … although practically anything dipped in chocolate sounds good ;) I’m all for the sweet n’ salty stuff. I actually crack sea salt on my peanut butter. Wierd I know … but delicious :)

Yeah, it is good from what I have heard ; )

I think the sea salt on the pb is great, they actually have a peanut butter with sea salt I have seen!
