haha. so, I just bought a jar of nutella today, and ugh, I want to eat it so bad. I bought it to try with the wonton wrapper idea, but, everyone is asleep and I don't want to use the oven because it is unbelievably loud (convection). Soooo...I am about to resort to eating this out of the jar in about 2.5 seconds. lol. The only fruit that I have are blueberries and black berries... Hmm.. ideas?
Thanks in advance!!

    Measure out blueberries and blackberries that fit your calories for the rest of your day, melt 2 tbsp of nutella in microwave and drizzle over berries
    Bet it'll be delicious and give you a chocolate fix without busting everything for the day - just know that 2tbsp of nutella is 200 calories

    Haha, probably the best idea, but, not gonna happen :laugh:

    It has been a LONG time since I have had this. Maybe it won't be as I imagined. lol. But, I will have a very little bit (because I realize it is high in calories), maybe on toast, since I do not have waffles, although that sounds amazing!!

    I don't mean to rain on anybody's parade, and please don't take this as "judgey" but I have to jump on the anti-nutella bandwagon. It infuriates me that this is marketed as "healthy". The first two ingredients are sugar and oil.

    If you must eat it, it's actually divine stirred into steel-cut oats with sliced banana.

    But, it really is a paste-form candy bar, and for me eating a bit does end up with the whole jar.

    Nowadays, I do the following sub: a jar of hazelnut butter (available at any health foods store), about a tablespoon of agave some cocoa powder, some vanilla extract and some cinnamon. Blend with a hand mixer, and then shove back in the jar. Delicious, better for you and a LOT less sugar.

    Hmm...me too. I always use the nutella on wholewheat toast as a way of topping up my calories. Homemade appeals to me even more so :)

    I could just eat the whole jar with a spoon... in fact, that's why I don't get it anymore :sad:

    Also, I was wondering, has enyone tried something that it's supposed to be a healthier alternative to Nutella, it's called "Rawtella"?

    If you just can't give up the Nutella, try keeping it in the fridge. :wink:

    It's tough to get it out of the jar when it's cold, which will make you think twice about whether you really want it. But if you do, you'd be surprised how long it takes to 1) get a teaspoon of it out of the jar and 2) how long it takes to eat it--it's basically fudge at this point.

    It's so much work when it's cold that you're not likely to eat as much of it, and more likely to pay attention to and enjoy it, too.

    I really like Rapunzel brand Organic Chocolate Hazelnut Butter. Its just as sugar & sweet bad for you but it has 30 calories less and 10 grams of carbs less than Nutella. When I'm craving sweet I have 1 spoon of this and wash it down with a big glass of water
