Chocolate Avocado Pudding Recipe

You may be feeling like your pants fit a wee bit tight from indulging over the holidays. While I’m sure it was worth every delicious morsel and sip, there are foods you can eat now to help loosen those skinny jeans and deflate the belly bloat.

Eating lighter and lower on the food chain can go a long way to making us feel rejuvenated and fabulous. There are literally hundreds of foods, mainly fruits and vegetables that have the ability to aid the body to detoxify more efficiently. You can find some of these foods listed here in a previous post: Cancer Fighting Foods.

As you might have noticed, over at Joyous Health we are doing an online 10-day detox. So no matter where you live in the world, you can participate. I made a variation of this recipe from the 10-day detox meal plan for dessert last night. Even if you don’t like avocados, I bet you like chocolate pudding right? This combines the best of both worlds — taste AND health!

Here’s the recipe: Chocolate Avocado Pudding

• 1 ripe avocado, peel and seed removed
• 1/3 cup raw cacao (Use the best quality you can find. I used Navitas — it has a beautiful rich aroma and taste)
• 1/4 cup raw honey (I used local buckwheat Nude Bee honey)

Place all ingredients into a food processor or high power blend and blend until nice and smooth. If you want a thinner consistency, add 2-3 tbsp of almond milk. Sprinkle some raw cacao nibs on top! Blend and enjoy!

Serves 2 generously. EnJOY!
