Chocolate Addiction



You're probably wondering what this nasty looking stuff is.... It's Chocolate-Avocado pudding!and it's actually amazingly good!

Flipping through a magazine I came across this healthy alternative to actual chocolate pudding. At first it sounded gross, but I figured why not. I woke up early and made it and behold! It was good.

The ingredients to this healthy snack are of course one avocado, one banana, a few chopped dates, a dash cinnamon,a dash of honey, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder and 2 tablespoons of almond butter. It's all natural and has many health benefits to you.

A few health benefits of this snack are:

  • Avocados are packed with disease fighting antioxidants and fibre which can help you lose weight.

  • Almond butter has the types of fat that help lower your level of cholesterol. It helps control your level of blood sugar and is rich in antioxidants.
  • Dates are rich in dietary fibre and are a good source of iron and potassium.
If you attempt to make this snack, it's not as chunky as my picture, my blender just wouldn't blend properly so blend until it's smooth! ENJOY
