Notes

Melissa's Modifications: This recipe offers so much variation! Use other fruits and berries—your choice. The dark chocolate chips are optional but add deliciousness (especially if you are enjoying as a dessert). To reduce the sugar and calories, use 6-8 drops of stevia extract (or similar sweetener*). You could even leave out the sweetener as the fruit may supply enough sugar for your taste.
