Chocolate Apples
There's no reason you have to give up nostalgic holiday treats just because you've made a commitment to eat healthy. These delicious apples are made with heart smart dark chocolate and Enova oil. Keep the nuts and novelties to a minimum if you're watching calories.
Tip: If you're not inclined to work quickly or if you're preparing these with small children, do a few apples at a time because the nuts and novelties won't stick to the chocolate once its dried.
