Nuts and Chocolate

I started eating squares of chocolate teamed with a small bowl of pistachios back on Phase II of the South Beach Diet and it has stuck. It is one of the indulgences that I have to put my sweet tooth in check. For every nibble of chocolate I have I have a nut or two with it, and gulp down a big glass of ice cold water.

Last week I subbed the pistachios for blanched almonds. Yum. This week it is mixed nuts (macadamia, cashews and almonds) and I have to say the macadamias beat out the other nuts. I love them.

I don't know what other people use for their sweet tooth, but this works for me. Nuts and chocolate. Mmmmm.
