Avocado Chocolate Pudding

Sweet Tooth
I have a major sweet tooth! That is one thing I could never give up, is desserts and candies. 
I love finding ways to make eating desserts healthy, it's like a challenge. 

Chocolate is probably my most favorite, chocolate cake, chocolate chip cookies, brownies, Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate. It's the best! 

So when I found this recipe for Chocolate Avocado Pudding I had to give it a try, with only 5 ingredients it's simple to make. 
I was a little skeptical since it's all avocado, I thought it was going to taste funny. But how wrong I was! It taste just like chocolate pudding.

Work up the nerve and take a big spoonful because your taste buds are going to be shocked!

Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1/3 Cup Cocoa powder (I use special dark)
- 1/2 Cup Milk ( I use Almond Milk)
-1/4 Cup Honey (or sweetener of choice could use Agave) 
-1 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla extract

Directions
- Peel and chop the avocado and put into a food processor, blender, or use a hand held mixer.
- Add all the other ingredients
-Blend till smooth

Eat immediately or chill first.
I like mine cold!

That's it, so delicious and you can stay on track.

I've already been thinking of ways to use it, like dipping graham crackers in it, mixing it in my oatmeal, dipping a banana in it, so many options. 

Try it, and tell me what you think.

Pumpkin Oatmeal





It just wouldn't be a perfect Fall morning without some pumpkin oatmeal. As we all know I'm not a big pumpking person, so for me to actually really like this oatmeal says a lot! It's SUPER good, but I'm not gonna lie the peanut butter in it makes all the difference. 
Now if you're a big pumpkin lover, you can opt to leave the peanut butter out. Try it without first you can always put the peanut butter in if you change your mind. 
Let's get eating!

Ingredients
- 1/3 Cup Quick Cooking Rolled Oats
- 2/3 Cup Water
- 1/4 Cup Pumpkin Pure (I use Libby's)
- 1/4 Tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1 Tbsp Peanut Butter
-1 Tsp Honey
- 1 Tbsp Flax seed

Directions
- In microwave safe bowl, stir the oats and water together.
- Microwave for 1 1/2 - 2 minutes.
- Stir in the pumpkin and cinnamon.
- Top with the honey, peanut butter, and flax seeds.
Now your read to eat!
Super simple and super delicious, and full of fiber!
