Holiday Recipe - Fat Burning Chocolate Pudding

Healthy Fat-Burning Chocolate Pudding:

(This recipe will make about 2-4 servings and is a great healthy dessert or late night snack)
  • 1/2 of a ripe avocado (soft to touch)
  • approx 3 tablespoons of almond butter or cashew butter (preferably raw if possible)
  • approx 1/4 cup of unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk (preferably organic)
  • 2 heaping tablespoons of organic cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla
  • 1 scoop of chocolate Shakeology (regular or vegan)

Put the avocado and almond butter into a bowl and mash together with a fork until smooth.  Then add all of the other ingredients into the bowl and mix together vigorously until all is mixed and smooth.  If you're good with a food processor, you can use that too.

If everything went right, the consistency will be similar to pudding... except normal pudding makes you FAT with loads of sugar!  This healthy pudding recipe will actually HELP you to burn fat, control cravings, and satisfy your body's need for micro-nutrients, protein, healthy fats, and fiber.

If the pudding ends up too thick, simply add a bit more almond milk or coconut milk for more moisture until the consistency seems right.

If you want to get a little wild and add some more nutrient-rich additions, feel free to add some chopped pecans, chia seeds, or walnuts at the end.  And it tastes great to top this dish with some sliced fresh strawberries!
