Vegan Chocolate Fruit Dip
You'll Want to Smother All Your Fruit in This 100-Calorie Chocolate Dessert Hummus

You can spruce up your basic snack by pairing it with this smooth and mousse-like chocolate dip. Made with almonds, chickpeas, and dates, it offers fiber and protein, but is much lower in sugar than if you noshed on a couple squares of dark chocolate.
