Dark Chocolate and Macadamia Covered Strawberries

Sometimes I need a really delicious canape or dessert alternative and these dark chocolate and macadamia covered strawberries really hit the mark….they look amazing too!

Prep time: 15 minutes. Cook time: 0 minutes. Servings: 4

Ingredients

100g 70-85% dark organic chocolate

100g raw macademia nuts (chopped)

1 punnet of medium British strawberries

Directions

Melt the chocolate over a medium heat, being very careful not to over heat (this will make the chocolate go grainy).
Wash and dry the strawberries, discarding any that are bruised or damaged.
Put the chocolate and nuts in two separate bowls.
Hold the strawberries carefully by the leaves and dip into the chocolate and then lightly into the nuts.
Put onto a clean tray and chill.

After trying innumerable ways to "Eat Healthily" whilst balancing the crazy demands of work and family life, I finally found a way to make it happen - Sam's brilliant, sensible approach to food and nutrition. The added bonus has been eating absolutely delicious, gorgeously fresh food. The gourmet angle is not surprising given her track record as a chef in some of our favourite places to eat in London. What's been more of a revelation is how uncomplicated it can be with a bit of forethought - Sam has first hand experience of the realities of bringing up children alongside hectic schedules, and she's integrated that into her approach. I will never, ever go back to the desperation of nasty 'ready meals'!
