Now, mind you, I plan to share this with my love, Mr. Maven. And, that’s the key, portion control on top of choosing the right goodies for that late night snack.

Here tonight, three small but very high quality nibbles of dark chocolate, a Minneola Tangelo sliced for two, and some anti-oxident and nutrition packed blueberries. This will be accompanied by some Mighty Leaf Tropical Green Tea.

We all need an occasional nibble of something wonderful to end the day, and it’s all about your choices. Make them the very best you can afford, since you’ll only be having a bite. This way you can nibble and relax knowing you’ve treated yourself to good health.

Keep it fresh with new options. I really like to end the evening with a crisp cold apple sliced up with just a few - really, I mean a few as in three or four - nuts and about one ounce of really great cheese.

Other times, it’s a single slice of whole grain toast and a sliced apple with a glass of lowfat milk that floats our end of the evening snack boat.

And, it’s so much better than digging into a lame tasting bag of stale, calorie laden chips and feeling bad about yourself.
