Black Forest Avocado Mousse
Can we get a round of applause for the avocado, please? I love this creamy fruit! The color, the texture, the versatility, the fiber! It’s a little nutrition powerhouse and it makes me so happy to put that into something fun and sweet.
1 serving of this Black Forest goodness has 34.6 grams of carbohydrates, 7.4 grams of protein, 11.6 grams of fiber (almost HALF your recommended daily intake!), and 12.8 g of fat.
Ingredients
Makes 2 servings
1 ripe avocado
3 Tbsp of raw cacao
1 Tbsp of Maple Syrup or sweetener of choice
5 Tbsp of filtered water or malk of choice
1 tsp of vanilla
Pinch of salt
Fresh cherries to top
Optional additional toppings - pistachios, shredded coconut, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds
Instructions
Cut your avocado in half, de-pit, and scoop into a blender or food processor.
Add the remaining ingredients - minus cherries and other toppings - into the blender.
Blend until everything is smooth and creamy - 60 seconds on high.
Allow to chill in the fridge and serve with your favorite toppings! If you can’t wait that long, it is delicious at room temperature too
Notes
If you want to add some protein powder 2 tbsp of collagen blends well
