What's chocolate and healthy? Or low-calorie?

WifedUpMartin

I looked through the first page and didn't see it but I was too lazy to go through all 4 pages - but if someone hasn't said Fiber One Chocolate Brownies yet they are pretty good and give me my chocolate fix for only 90 cals!

Nature Valley Protien Chewy Bar - Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate, 1 bar

Has 190 calories and 10 grams of protien.

Hershey's Special Dark candy bar is 190 for the whole thing. Why add the rest of the stuff when craving chocolate.

I eat dark chocolate everyday.

I love Special K Chocolatey Delight Cereal for breakfast.

I really hate dark chocolate. My mom always recommends it. I know it's a healthy, good option though. An article said having a piece or two a day is actually good for you! I just... can't do it. Or maybe I just need my mouth to adjust to it like mustard.

I get endangered species dark chocolate from whole foods. I think its 72% and it's got a strong mint flavor to it. It's actually really really good. Anything more than 85% for tastes too "burnt" or black coffee-ish

dark chocolate bars. I stick to 60-70% ones, it varies on different brands. I tried 80% and didn't taste chocolate-y to me at all. I like newman's own, endangered species, and xoxoxo.

Dark Chocolate and Oat Clusters

Ingredients:
2 Tablespoons peanut butter
2 Tablespoons milk
1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
3/4 cups old fashioned oats

Preparation:
Please peanut butter, milk and chocolate chips in a saucepan; cook over low heat until chocolate chips are melted. Stir in oats; remove from heat. With a spoon or by hand, drop 8 ball shaped portions on a wax-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for a few hours. They will last for a while in the fridge, taste actually much better on the 2nd day. One cluster has about 80 calories. They are delicious and actually pretty filling.

Freddo, Chomp, Fudge, Taz, milky way...all around 100 cals

Break it into smaller pieces for lower calories

This is exactly what I was gonna say! It's so rich you can't eat too much. I have a sweets addiction and even I can't overdo it with this chocolate bar!

cacao nibs that have been ground and roasted. You brew it like coffee. Straight chocolate. For hard core lovers only. Or just go straight for the jugular and treat yourself to cacao nibs.

Chocolate banana peanutbutter cookies!

Here's the recipe (found it on this site, but I know it's from another one.)

1/3 cup apple sauce
1/4 cup coco powder
1/4 cup peanut butter
1 banana
1/2 cup oats

Mix 'em together, stick the dough in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes, make balls of dough and bake for 11-15 minutes at 350. I refrigerate mine after I bake them and they taste sooooo good! You can also just leave out the oats and eat it that way. Or fool about with the ingreedients as much as you'd like! If you add a few (and you really only need a tablespoon) of pounded semi-sweet chocolate chips they taste super good warm out of the oven!

Dark chocolate is an acquired taste. Try weaning yourself off milk chocolate and gradually getting used to the dark stuff. Don't try something that is 85% at first, because you will HATE it. Work your way up to higher numbers rather than diving right in. I used to hate dark chocolate, too, but now when I try milk chocolate it's too creamy/sweet. Trust me, you'll get used to it!

I agree.

If your looking for a real alternative to help you cut out and with lower fat and lower calories - carob. Its kindda chocolaty like, though not exactly the same, but pretty good. Carob is naturally sweeter and has less sweeteners added, however it has some more carb, but it also has no caffine or other stimulants that chocolate has. But in reality after both chocolate and carob are processed as a candy treat its not that much better than chocolate lol.

However, for limiting your portion sizes, Trader Joe's has a great 100 calorie portion servings of milk chocolate and its DELICIOUS !!!

So, what's something that is chocolate and tastes delicious but it healthy or just low-calorie?
what's an alternative ?

You could try carob. Similar flavour profile with less calories.

Basically, I'm addicted to chocolate.
Addicted!
So, what's something that is chocolate and tastes delicious but it healthy or just low-calorie?

All I can think of is expensive things.
Like, chocolate protein shakes. I mean, I will buy a jar of it soon but in the meantime, what's an alternative ?

OMG I highly recommend Vitatops the Deep Chocolate kind www.vitalicious.com They are only 100 calories with 9 grams of fiber and as nutritious or more than an apple. It is like a hot muffin top with melted chocolate chips in it awesome when heated up for 30 seconds! nom nom nom

Even better is the Vitalicious mini fudge chocolate vitacake. 50 calories per serving!!

Boil 1 cup almond milk, hemp milk, or water. Add 3T cocoa powder, and sweetener to taste (I use stevia, could use anything). Boil until slightly thick, pour into mug and enjoy. Only 30 cals with stevia and water, about 80 cals with almond milk and stevia.
