Have a chocolate craving?
I don’t usually crave specific foods; however, there are times when I really want chocolate.

Filled with antioxidants and high in quality protein, chia seeds may actually help you lose weight! I know, I know, you’re thinking this is just too good to be true. Not so. These superfood cuties are overflowing with good stuff to keep you healthy and enjoying a vibrant life.
I love how this recipe does not require a sweetener. Instead, I use YourSuper.com Chocolate Lover Mix. There’s no added sugar in it and the coconut adds the perfect amount of sweet to this recipe.

The mix is high in vitamins and minerals, such as Vitamin E, Magnesium, Calcium, Iron, Copper and Zinc. How can you resist?
