~Janine's Chocolate Avocado Pudding~
By Janine Bibeau
This pudding tastes like a true indulgence, but without the guilt! Four ingredients and a food processor and you have yourself a super easy and really healthy dessert. I have been making this treat at least once a week. I just can't get enough!
Let's talk about avocado for a minute here. Avocados actually contain more potassium than bananas! Potassium is important to help maintain a healthy blood pressure and by doing that, they decrease your risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure.
They also contain healthy fats. The majority of fat in an avocado is oleic acid. Oleic acid has been linked to reduced inflammation and also to reducing the risk of cancer!
In addition to that, they are loaded with fiber which helps to maintain digestive health. They are anti inflammatory and contain a ton of antioxidants. Go Avocado!
Why not try this pudding for Valentine's Day and show your body some LOVE!

Ingredients
2 Ripe Avocados
1/2 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
4 to 5 Tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
4 to 5 Tablespoons Real Maple Syrup
2 Ripe Avocados
1/2 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
4 to 5 Tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
4 to 5 Tablespoons Real Maple Syrup
Instructions
Put all ingredients into the food processor.
Blend well. You may have to stop the food processor and scrape the inside with a rubber spatula, sending all of the pudding back down to the bottom. Then give it another whirl in the food processor until you cannot see any bits of green avocado.
Scoop into fancy cups or just place the whole food processor in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. This is very important! If you do not do this, the cocoa flavor does not come out fully and your pudding will taste like avocado.
Garnish with a strawberry if you want to get fancy.
Enjoy!
Makes 2-3 servings.
