Chocolate Fruit Dip
(Natural Awakenings Magazine)

So, I am pretty much in love with this dip!  I enjoy eating it on an apple, but I bet it would be good on strawberries, grapes, pineapple, etc.!  This article that I got the recipe out of is full of great eating tips and ideas.  This fruit dip is under the "avocado" section of the article and as you will see, the ingredients don't specify the amount, but just do it to taste.  It's really yummy!!

*I keep reading negative things about agave nectar.  Here's one article I read, which didn't speak highly of agave nectar: Agave Nectar: Good or Bad?
