Valentine Brownie Hearts
4 Squares unsweetened chocolat
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) margarine
2 cup Sugar
3 Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla
1 cup Flour
1 cup Chopped nuts (optional)
2 2/3 cup Halved strawberries
8 oz Tub chocolate nondairy
Whipped topping


Heat oven to 350 degrees F (325 degrees F for glass dish). Line a 13
inch by 9 inch baking pan with foil, extending over edges to form
handles. Grease foil.

Cook chocolate and margarine in large microwave-safe bowl on high (100
percent power) for 2 minutes or until margarine is melted. Stir until
chocolate is completely melted.

Stir sugar into chocolate until well blended. Mix in eggs and
vanilla. Stir in flour and nuts until well blended. Spread in
prepared pan.

Bake in a 350 degree F oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until toothpick
inserted in center comes out with fudgy crumbs. Do not overbake. Cool
in pan. Refrigerate 30 minutes for easier cutting. Lift brownies out
of pan with foil handles. Invert onto back of pan. Carefully remove
foil. Invert onto cutting board. Cut into heart shapes with cookie
cutter.

Place half of the brownies on individual dessert plates. Spoon 1/2 cup
strawberries over each brownie. Top each with 1/3 cup whipped topping.
Cover with remaining brownies. Garnish with additional strawberries.
Serve immediately. Makes 10 to 12 heart shaped brownies or 5 to 6
servings.

Carol's note: Less calories if only a single layer of brownie is used,
increasing total servings to 10 or 12.

Dieting tips

If you enjoy eating, but want to shed a few pounds and also boost your all round healthfulness, without doubt you need to eat a carefully calculated balanced daily routine. Theoretically, this must take in five portions of pulses and vegetables a day and contain a sensible combination of protein, carbs and fat.

When planning a daily routine, it is important to also try to moderate your ingestion of fat, refined carbohydrates and salt.

When starting a weight loss program, people far too often focus on department store and brand name foods professing to be 'low-fat'. To do this is frequently incorrect, seeing that a food product may well be lowered in fat content, but still far too high in carbohydrates.

Make sure that you drink enough fluids. At times during a hectic day, you assume you want to eat but in fact you might only want a restorative drink of water or squash. The sensations of hunger and needing a drink are nearly the same, albeit one of the two leads to bad health and the alternative is ok.

Rather than dwelling on the unhealthy foods that you need to ban from your diet, look at the nutritionally sound foods that you are able to introduce to your dietary regime. If you can inject some healthy grains, cereals and vegetables into your meal plan, you will discover that you feel more full and have a substantially decreased chance of giving in to those unhealthy between meals biscuits.
