🎄 Christmas Tree Pull-Apart Bread 😋

👨🏼‍🍳Preparation

1️⃣Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

2️⃣Flip a baking sheet upside down and place a piece of parchment paper on top.

3️⃣Set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and Club House ranch dip seasoning.

4️⃣ Stir until well mixed. Fold in the spinach. Set aside.

5️⃣Roll out the tube of pizza dough on a piece of parchment paper set on a flat surface.

6️⃣Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut from a bottom corner to the center of the top.

7️⃣ Repeat on the other side so you have 1 full triangle and 2 halves of a triangle on either side.

8️⃣Transfer both side-triangle pieces to the prepared baking sheet. Pinch the middle seam to seal and stretch the dough to form a single triangle.

9️⃣Spread the spinach dip over a side of the triangle.
Spread the pesto over the other side of the triangle.
Flip the remaining dough triangle on top of the filling and remove the parchment from the top.

1️⃣0️⃣Stretch the dough to cover completely.
Using a pizza cutter or knife, make horizontal slices about 1 inch apart from the top to bottom, leaving the middle “trunk” of the tree intact.

1️⃣1️⃣Pull the strips outwards and twist.
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and garlic and brush over the tree.

1️⃣2️⃣Sprinkle with the Club House Italian herbs and shredded Parmesan cheese.

🔹Low amount of sugar

🍎Other option can be apples, which are also

🔹high in fiber and

3 benefits of COCOA 🍫😋

1️⃣ It is rich in polyphenols
(Antioxidants), vitamin E, B1 and B2, as well as Magnesium (Antidepressant and tranquilizer) ✅

2️⃣ It contains STEARIC ACID, that once ingested is transformed into OLEIC ACID, which helps to:
✅ REDUCE bad cholesterol (LDL) 📉
✅ INCREASE good cholesterol(HDL) 📈

Making it as a great ally of the heart ❤️

3️⃣ The different components of cocoa contribute to REDUCE blood pressure 📉 which helps to prevent cardiovascular disorders. 👌🏼

🔹NOTE🔹 The problem is that the majority of chocolates (the most common form of cocoa consumption) contain a HIGH amount of fats and sugars, which makes it not recommended for people with a tendency to obesity, sedentarism and diabetic. This should be consumed in MODERATION and with the BIGGEST possible proportion of cocoa. 👌🏼👌🏼
