Today I enjoyed a PBF favorite… a noodle bowl!
My bowl o’ pasta was a bit different today, as it did not include my beloved red sauce. Instead I opted for a cheesy sauce made with melted Laughing Cow light original Swiss cheese wedge and Babybel cheese.
The combination of the two cheese flavors was delicious and definitely stood out against the chopped spinach and lightly steamed broccoli I also included in the bowl.
Though my bowl of noodly goodness was pretty darn fantastic, something else managed to steal the show.
So stinkin’ good!
Last week Stonyfield (the company that makes Oikos organic Greek yogurt) sent me some coupons to sample their new caramel and chocolate Greek yogurt.
If you read this blog with any regularity, you know I am basically in love with Greek yogurt for its creamy texture and fantastic protein content, so naturally I jumped at the chance to try the new dessert-like flavors.
All I can say is hoooooooly (organic) cow! 😀
Both flavors were incredibly delicious, though I think for the first time in my entire life I preferred the caramel variety to the chocolate.
I really liked how the caramel and chocolate “topping” was located at the bottom of the cup, because it allowed me to enjoy as much or as little of the sweetness I wanted to at any given bite. Gotta love a healthy way to satisfy that sweet tooth!
Now that I’ve all but professed my love for these new flavas, it’s your turn to give ’em a try!

Fave dish that involves chocolate? My mama’s peanut butter blossoms! http://forneylife.wordpress.com/2009/12/03/peanut-butter-blossoms/ Of course, I only make them at Christmastime or else I’d be in trouble! (These cookies are so good that I was convinced your blog was actually called peanutbutterblossoms for a few days… clearly these cookies have a hold on my brain) And thanks for the heads up that Stonyfield is on twitter, I didn’t realize they were on there! It looks like they tweet many a healthy-fied recipe.
Homemade churros dipped in home made chocolate sauce…delicious!
I absolutely looove any candy bar with chocolate and a hint of caramel!
What an awesome giveaway! My favorite dish including chocolate would have to be chocolate ice cream :). I also love caramel sauce on an ice cream sundae!
P.S. I’m also following Stonyfield on Twitter :-D.
I LOVE anything caramel AND anything chocolate, but when you get them together they are more than twice as good. I love a good chocolate cake with caramel frosting. Or homemade caramels dipped in chocolate.
I “liked” Stonyfield on Facebook, too!
And I’ve become a fan of theirs on Facebook.
Sliced apples with microwaved hot caramel sauce, and cocoa powder sprinkled on before the dip dip dippin’ action begins, mmmm

Once I had a chocolate and caramel crepe with creme on top… TO DIE FOR!

I looove caramel.. Anything with caramel. My aunt Susie makes homemade caramel and that is my favorite candy (if that’s considered candy?) EVER! I don’t think I have enough patience for it though 🙁
A little something i like to call…. Rolos! hahaha
I sampled both flavors a while back. Like you, I was expecting to like the chocolate more, but actually preferred the caramel. Weird stuff, I tell ‘ya.
Generally I’m a chocoholic. My favorite dessert is molten lava cake… Yum.

Such a hard question! Hmmm…I would have to say a good ol’ hot fudge/caramel sauce sundae! MMM! LOVE your blog and I read it everyday! Have a wonderful afternoon!
warm caramel brownie sundae. I LOVE chocolate and caramel.
This is a tough one! Ice cream definitely comes to mine, but I don’t think I could choose between chocolate or caramel as a favorite…with coffee ice cream I’m all about hot fudge sauce, but vanilla ice cream with caramel sauce is so simple and delicious!
And a fbook fan
That yogurt sounds soooo good!!! My favorite & most simple thing in the world is to stir a little peanut butter into a container of light or fat free cool whip & divide it between 12 lined muffin tins. Freeze this til it’s firm & then drizzle some homemade ( or store bought ) chocolate syrup over them. Sooooo good!!!!
For a treat I love Sarbucks nonfat caramel macchiato! 🙂
I love chocolate pudding, I know it’s not the best for you, but I can’t turn it down! I also love to sprinkle dark chocolate chips in almond butter.
YUM! My favorite caramel dessert is actually a caramel cookie I created just last week. Look out for it on the blog soon. 😉
I’m following Stonyfield on Twitter now. 🙂
