Monday Meal Prep: Moo-Less Chocolate Mouse

Monday Meal Prep: Moo-Less Chocolate MouseThis is a good Diane Sanfilipo recipe (founder of the 21 day sugar detox) that is super fast and tastes decadent but is actually a healthier indulgence, full of good fats, and without the sugar!
Avocado is a super food, its healthy fats aid in digestion of carotenoids and lycopene.  The mighty avocado is nutrient dense, packed with fiber and vitamins! Be sure to read to the bottom so you can see the great avo graphic.

ingredients:

  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 2 ripe bananas (use green-tipped/under ripe if on the 21DSD)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cacao powder 
  • 1/2 cup  coconut milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • pinch of cinnamon – optional
  • pinch of sea salt – optional
  • 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup (*do not use this if on the 21DSD)
  • 1 tablespoon cacao nibs or grated 100% dark chocolate, for garnish

preparation:

  • Scoop out the flesh of the avocados into a food processor and add all of the other ingredients except your garnish. Process until well blended and creamy/smooth. You may whisk the ingredients together  vigorously as well, if necessary or you don’t have a food processor.
  • Serve in individual dishes or bowls. Garnish with with cacao nibs or grated 100% dark chocolate (pictured), toasted hazelnuts, or coconut.
