A holiday that centres around chocolate is very much something I can get around! Although I really don’t need an excuse to enjoy chocolate I indulge in it daily, whether it’s a couple squares of dark chocolate (I go for 90% cacao which is almost completely free of sugar), or a hot cacao or simply a sugar-free chocolate treat that I’ve prepared for the week.

Remember, when it comes to health, it’s about what you can have, not about what you can’t have.

And if you are going into Easter feeling a little saddened by the nostalgic sugary chocolate you’ll be “missing out” on, well let’s change that mindset right now! Think about all the healthy indulgences you can enjoy!

For me, it’s not actually an enjoyable experience if I’m going to feel sluggish or heavy or unhealthy afterward. I want treats that are both nourishing for my mind and body (which in some sense are the exact same thing), and in fact this is exactly why I create all the recipes I do!

If you are stuck for ideas about healthy indulgences, I have hundreds of sugar-free, low-carb and nourishing sweet recipes on my recipes page.

And here is just one of the treats I’ll be enjoying at Easter this year. Think of a White Chocolate Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup but a sugar-free version… Delish!
