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!

    A sundae from the gourmet chocolate shop in town – milk chocolate bowl, hot fudge, crispy PB topping, whipped cream and a chocolate medallion on top. OMG.

    I’m a HUGE chocolate and fruit fan – especially chocolate covered strawberries. I’ll pretty much dip any kind of fruit in chocolate. 🙂

    I agree with others by saying that there really is no WRONG way to enjoy chocolate! But my absolute favorite at the moment is chocolate flavored cereal, sweet and satisfying all at the same time and so early in the morning! Can’t have a bad day when you start it with chocolate

    My favorite way to enjoy chocolate is when it is mixed with hazelnuts. Nutella is my favorite thing to eat in the entire world. I could eat a jar of it by the spoonful in no time. I welcome every other form of chocolate, though, too!

    I’m a total chocaholic. I’ve enjoyed Guylian chocolates for years too.

    My favorite way to enjoy it? On a cold day, I love to take a nice piece of chocolate and savor it slowly while drinking either a cup of hot chocolate (I can’t get enough chocolate… it SHOULD be a food group) or hot tea.

    When I want chocolate, I go HARD!
    At the ice cream store about a 5 minute walk from my place (very dangerous!) I love to order dark chocolate & mint chocolate ice cream, with skor pieces mixed in, added chocolate fudge and sometimes I’ll add some brownie pieces too…all in a chocolate dipped cone.
    Needless to say, I workout a lot to counteract the damage!!
