1 large avocado mashed
1/8 tsp or less salt
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/2-1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp cacao powder
Mix this real well with a whisk and it’s ready to eat.
Makes a very rich & delicious chocolate pudding with great texture, probably could get it even better in the blender. Almost no hint of avocado flavor.
Made this tonight for dessert.
Got the recipe from here:
http://frankgiglio.net/wordpress/over-the-top-chocolate-milk/
Check out this site, the recipe section and video section, great stuff so far.
Here’s what I used:
2 cups cold water
2-3 tbsp cashews (soaked for a few hours in some water)
1 tbsp coconut oil
2 tbsp cacao powder
1.5 tbsp local honey
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Put all of this in the blender and blend until smooth, about 30 seconds.
Makes a rich, frothy, chocolate milk. I could have easily drank a quart of this. Pleanty sweet, I could even do with a little less sweetner, but I am hardly eating any sugar right now.
Another recipe from
http://frankgiglio.net/wordpress/chia-pudding/
I am going thru some of these recipes and so far, damn delicious.
Mine was quite a bit different than the recipe because I only could use what I had.
1 cup of fresh almond milk from soaked raw unpasturized almonds, I already had this in the fridge at a ratio of approx 1 cup almonds to 4 cups of water with a few dates in the mix for some sweetness (strained thru nut milk bag).
Pour this 1 cup of almond milk into a cereal bowl.
to this add:
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp maca powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp allspice
1/4 tsp cloves
few shakes of salt
1/4 cup chia seeds.
Mix this all up good with a fork until any clumps are mixed in, then let is sit about 15 minutes, mix again.
Add 1/2 cup frozen blueberries
That’s the end of it, then I eat it. I’ve made it twice in 2 days. It looks aweful, but tastes pretty amazing with great texture.
Great to eat before working out.
Found this recipe at
http://frankgiglio.net/wordpress/summertime-blueberrycoconut-smoothie/
Get water and fat out of a thai coconut.
Put in coconut water and fat in the blender, add a little vanilla extract, 1.5 tsp cinnamon, .5 teaspoon allspice, .25 teaspoon cloves (all approximate, I didn’t measure any of it)
3 tablespoons cacao nibs and 1/2 cup frozen blueberries.
Blend this up about 45 seconds until smooth.
Delicious. I could make this every day.
