Nacho typical apple. Not your typical apple... ha ha yeah I'm a corn ball. Anyway, my sweet tooth was raging tonight. I opened the snack cupboard and stared longingly at the stash of Easter candy. Then shut the door as I remembered "GOALS! You have goals, lady!" But that didn't shut the sweet tooth down. So I decided to make a healthy, clean, plant based, sweet treat that wouldn't send me spiraling down into a sugar coma. APPLE NACHOS! Yes, I know typical nachos are crunchy chips coated in cheese and spiciness. Not these, my friend. Here's the basic idea-
Core and slice an apple, spread the slices on a plate. In a tiny bowl combine 1 teaspoon of tahini and a tiny bit of maple syrup (around 1/4 tsp), stir and then microwave for a few seconds, just to thin it out. Drizzle on top of the apple. In another tiny bowl (or use the same one if you're lazy like me) melt a few dairy free chocolate chips. Drizzle over the apples. *Next time I plan to experiment with a chocolate drizzle made from Shakeology so it's even healthier! Stay tuned for that one... Sprinkle some cinnamon over your nachos and top with chopped nuts. I used walnuts, but I'm sure pecans or almonds would be delicious as well. You could also add in a drizzle of peanut butter if you really wanted to get crazy. Enjoy your sweet, guilt free, treat! What's your favorite way to combat a sweet tooth?
