Chocolate-Dipped Mandarins With A Nutty Twist
Ingredients:
-
Fresh mandarin oranges
-
High-quality dark chocolate, melted
-
Assorted nuts or seeds of your choice (almonds, walnuts, pistachios, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etc.)
-
Optional: Finely shredded or desiccated coconut
Directions:
-
Prepare the Mandarins: Start by peeling the mandarin oranges and separating them into individual sections. Ensure they are patted dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture, as this will help the chocolate adhere better.
-
Melt the Chocolate: Place your preferred dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in short intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted and smooth. Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate using a double boiler on the stove.
-
Dip and Coat: Take each mandarin section and dip it halfway into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess chocolate to drip off. Place the dipped mandarin sections on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
-
Add Nutty Crunch: While the chocolate is still soft, sprinkle your chosen nuts or seeds generously over the chocolate-dipped mandarin sections. Feel free to mix and match for a variety of flavors and textures.
-
Optional Coconut Topping: For an extra layer of flavor, sprinkle finely shredded or desiccated coconut over the nutty topping. This adds a hint of tropical sweetness that complements the tangy mandarin and rich chocolate perfectly.
-
Chill and Set: Once all the mandarin sections are dipped and topped, transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator and allow the chocolate to set for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once the chocolate has hardened, your guilt-free indulgence is ready to be enjoyed! Arrange the chocolate-dipped mandarin sections on a serving platter and watch as they disappear in moments of blissful satisfaction.
Call to Action: Indulging in a sweet treat doesn't have to come with a side of guilt. With these chocolate-dipped mandarin sections, you can satisfy your cravings while nourishing your body with the goodness of fresh fruit and nuts.

About Me
My passion about health started in my teens when I first hand saw the effects of how illness can wreck havoc in a family growing up with parents who had serious health issues. I too struggled with losing weight & developed an eating disorder that I was able to heal by educating myself on healthier habits. It’s amazing what our bodies can do when we learn to take care of them like God intended. These experiences & challenges fueled my passion to be a life long student in pursuit of learning how to create healthier lifestyles where one can thrive at their optimal best. As a mother of 3 children & a wife of a traveling husband, I quickly learned how to implement healthy habits on the go so that I could be my healthy best for my family. This has evolved into my health coaching business Thriving With Health where I coach people to integrate simple & fun healthy 'bites’ throughout their day even on their most busiest & challenging ones. You are never too busy to take care of your health & I can show you how. Everyone has busy lifestyles and living at their optimum best is not only doable but can be fun as well!
