GOODFATS: DIY Chocolate Macadamia Nut Dip
I love to eat them daily, especially to sustain my energy while I’m on the go; by keeping this healthy snack on-hand, I don’t have to think about hunger pangs or drops in blood sugar. Macadamias are a rich source of vitamin A, iron, B1, B2 and B3, minerals like calcium, magnesium, and zinc, as well as antioxidant-rich polyphenols and selenium. The buttery-rich texture of these nuts lends itself to the most divine chocolate-macadamia dip recipe! Not only is it simple to prepare (and ultra-delicious), but it’s good for your body, too.
I like to enjoy it by the spoonful, but you could easily spread it on seed-base crackers or over some crunchy celery or jicama as well. If you are feeling really fancy, place some unsweetened shredded coconut on a plate, roll about a tablespoon of this chocolatey goodness into a ball, and then roll it in the coconut so it’s fully covered. Refrigerate the balls and when you need a high-fat snack that’s filling, quick and delicious, pop one of these into your mouth and enjoy a quickly made fat-bomb!
