Dessert Platter |
Valentine's Day is a time to celebrate Love & Happiness.
In our culture, most people like to celebrate by sharing a meal of delicious foods topped off with yummy desserts. If you are watching your weight or just eating healthier in general, you can still enjoy delicious foods. Here's what I chose to eat for my Valentine's Day dinner. It was healthy and quite delicious.

The spinach stir-fry and salmon were both prepared using olive oil and the tomatoes were simply sprinkled with sea salt.
Dessert (pictured above) was a raw dessert platter that included fresh whole strawberries. The strawberries were so sweet...they were perfect. So, what are those heart-shaped thingies? LOL! They are delicious little morsels of raw goodness. I call them Brazil Nut Dateys (cookies). No sugar is added to these little bad boys making them a very healthy treat. They are made using raw organic Brazil nuts, coconut flakes, barhi dates, and a pinch of sea salt. I added organic cacao powder to some of the mixture to create a chocolate flavor. After all, what is Valentine's Day without chocolate, right? These little dateys were shaped into mini hearts using a heart-shaped mold, which created the perfect bite-size portion, in honor of Valentine's Day. No guilt there! :-)
I hope everyone enjoyed their Valentine's Day whether you are single or in a relationship. I really enjoyed my evening.
What did your Valentine's Day dinner consist of?
