5:2 DIET - CHOCOLATE DIPPED STRAWBERRIES

6 for me and 6 for my wife

This pudding ticks all the boxes: we all know that a couple of squares a day of dark chocolate is good for us; it provides one of your five a day; and, with around a dozen small/medium strawberries it comes in at roughly 145 calories.

(If it serves 2, as it did today, that's less than 75 calories each!)

Combine this with a 250 calorie vegetable curry and 100g baked potato or similar, and you are well under 500 calories.

Ingredients:
2 squares (20g) good quality dark chocolate
100g strawberries

Melt the chocolate - I find 1 minute in the microwave does the job.
Poke a skewer or the end of a teaspoon halfway through each strawberry
Dip it into the chocolate
Place the spoon and chocolate on a plate or similar
And repeat.

Try and wait until they're all done before sampling!
