Simple Substitution #2: Dark Chocolate

Did you know a little bit of chocolate every day is actually good for you?  Dark chocolate especially has a host of antioxidants and will increase blood flow to your muscles and brain (especially good if you're working out).  Studies also show that dark chocolate can help lower blood pressure, controls blood sugar levels, and even prevents cavities by hardening tooth enamel.  So next time you're craving chocolate, opt for dark chocolate instead and you won't even be cheating on your diet!  Also try substituting it into your recipes this holiday season.
