Who Wants Chocolate?

February 3, 2011 by Julie 547 Comments

After basically ignoring vegetables yesterday, I wanted to be sure to incorporate a bunch of the nutritious little guys in my lunch this afternoon.

Naturally, a salad seemed like the easiest way to do this!

Thursday's Lunch

In the mix:

  • Shredded iceberg lettuce
  • Large carrot, chopped
  • Orange bell pepper, chopped
  • One celery stalk, chopped
  • Roast beef
  • Pace black bean and roasted corn salsa

Reunited with the Veg

Phew! The salsa had a kick to it and made this whole salad taste very flavorful!

I was thankful for a cup of Greek yogurt to cool my mouth down a bit after this meal.

I was also quite grateful for some Guylian chocolate.

Guylian

I’m always open to a little creamy sweetness to wrap up a meal!

Ooooh Yes

Wanna know the best part?

YOU can enjoy this chocolate, too!

When the wonderful people at Guylian contacted me to see if I would be interested in receiving a sample of this chocolate, I jumped at the chance. I’ve been enjoying Guylian chocolate for years and love the seashell-shape of the chocolate and the rich, creamy praline truffle center of each chocolate.

Now it’s your turn! Woo!

One PBF reader will receive a gift basket of this chocolate.

Chocolate For YOU!

In the basket:

  • Guylian Originals Seashells, 4.4 oz.
  • Guylian Praline Original Temptations, 4.4 oz.

To enter this giveaway, simply comment telling me about your FAVORITE way to enjoy chocolate… in cookies, cakes, brownies, on top of ice cream… let your chocolate dreams run wild! 🙂

I will randomly select a winner and announce the winner tomorrow afternoon.

Good luck!

    Though I cannot imagine any way in which I do not enjoy chocolate, my favorite has to be with peanut butter. Or flourless chocolate cake. Or a gooey brownie with ice cream. Or a melty chocolate chip cookie. Make it stop!

    My Favorite way to consume chocolate is to incorporate it into drinks! Chocolate Milk, Smoothies, and Skim Milk, Rum Cream, and Chocolate Fat Free Sugar Free Syrup.

    Also I have never met a White Chocolate Peppermint Covered Pretzel I didnt like!

    I think chocolate and peanut butter is the greatest pair ever! Reese’s are quite possibly my favorite candy of choice and I also love chocolate peanut butter smeared over a graham cracker… mmm!

    I wrote a poem for this occasion:

    Chocolate, chocolate how I love thee
    Whenever I eat you all I can say is, “Yumm-ee”

    You come into my life and bring me such joy
    Seeing you at my doorstep would make me scream, “Oh boy, Oh boy!”

    I like chocolate in every form too
    I wish I had some chocolate shampoo

    Ok, so I’m not very good at writing poems, but I do relish chocolate in any form. Except in chapstick. That just never does smell like real chocolate.

    Chocolate is my fav. I like just plain chocolate. But it has to be good chocolate, none of the waxy candy bar stuff.
