Now that the kids are heading back to school, I feel like I can honestly get myself back on track. During the last 2 1/2 months, I have been a bit lax on exercising, eating, and self care. With just my son and I home for the bulk of the day, I can finally have the time to prep nutrtious meals, and plan for healthy snacking.
These Chocolate Dipped Tangerines with Sea Salt are a great snack that calms my cravings for something sweet and salty with each bite.
Ok, so I am sure not everyone might have the time to dip some tangerines into semi-sweet chocolate, but it is actually a pretty quick to create treat. I am sure many of you want instant gratification when you need that sweet or savory snack. Trust me, I get in those moods too so I turn to better for me options when I have them in the house.
Personally, I love how these two snacking options are helping to keep me in check with eating less calories because I was pretty bad during the summer. I ate probably a little too many chips, and some extra scoops of ice cream.
I can certainly feel the difference in my clothes so I really am happy to have my home stocked with the right choices.
Ingredients:
- 1 large tangerine peeled, and divided.
- 1/3 cup of semi-sweet chocolate morsels heated until creamy
- 1 tsp Pink Himalayan Sea Salt
Directions:
Once the tangerine is peeled, make sure each wedge is dry before dipping the end into the creamy chocolate.
Dip each wedge halfway and place them on a wax paper lined tray to harden in the fridge.
Once they are all dipped, sprinkle the sea salt over the wedges, and allow them to harden for 15 mins.
Enjoy them once they are done and you will be in for such a sweet and salty treat!

I love the idea of healthy snacks! I have a bit of a snack and sweet tooth and for me to eat healthy I would have to have that in my diet or I would binge on it if I cut it out. I’ll have to try some of these desserts and snacks.

The healthiest snacks we generally have are fruit or cheese. I’ve never had a chocolate dipped tangerine, it sounds intriguing.
