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!

    I love chocolate any way! But I have to agree with many people before me – nothing can beat ooey gooey hot fudge drizzled over ice cream!

    Those chocolate seashells are amazing. They remind me of being at my grandmothers house on holidays. Since we lost her years ago, the little things like these memories are the best.

    I love chocolate every way til Tuesday. Especially chocolate ice cream/ fro yo. Always turns a bad day (like this miz winter we are having up here in New England) a little better.

    my favorite way to enjoy chocolate is a brownie and icecream sundae. I know that is technically two chocolate items (three if you count fudge…) but it’s one dessert so I think it passes!!

    Best chocolate treat: Nutella chocolate mixed in with Chobani yogurt and banana slices. For some cruch – sprinkle honey nut chex cereal for the ultimate yogurt bowl.

    I love your blog and love that I am not the only one who loves to make crazy concoctions for breakfast, healthy veggie fries for dinner, and finish the day off with the ultimate desert. Reading PBF is the highlight of my day!
