Healthy Fact of the Day

While this is definitely a dessert indulgence, dark chocolate provides antioxidants and may support heart health. To make slightly healthier, use low-fat milk in pudding and reduce sugar content. Consider using Greek yogurt in place of some mascarpone. Fresh berries add vitamins and antioxidants. For a lighter version, use angel food cake and sugar-free pudding. The protein from dairy helps make this more satisfying than many desserts. Consider small portions and sharing. This is a special occasion treat best enjoyed in moderation.
