Yesterday, I posted this to Instagram after my lunch break (caption included):
I received varied comments.
Whether I was asked to post the recipe out of desire to try it or out of general concern for my sanity, I thought I'd share it! Mr. TBS intended to make frozen pudding pops last week, but it was so tasty that we dug right in. Why wait, right?
Intriguing.
Definitely sounds interesting!
I want in on this health.
Blog post coming soon?
I'm not sure about that...

And with requests to post this easy recipe, I was in luck, because guess what he made last night? Oh, yes, he did.
Healthy Chocolate Pudding
(aka Chocolate Avocado Pudding)
(aka Chocolate Avocado Pudding)
Ingredients:
2 ripe bananas
2 ripe California avocados
1/3 cup honey (local raw, unheated, unfiltered honey is best)
1/4 cup organic non-dairy cocoa powder
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup water
Directions:
1.) Peel and mash bananas and avocados in a large bowl using a fork or masher.
2.) Add honey, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and water.
3.) Mix well with a hand mixer, blender, or food processor.
4.) Serve immediately, chill first, or fill an ice cube tray and freeze to make mini pudding pops!
We have no patience when it comes to chocolate, so we dove right in!
I have a pretty extreme sweet tooth, so I love that this hits the spot without sending me into a sugar crash 30 minutes later.

I love it! Im always looking for healthy ways to satisfy sweet cravings! Gracias
I just learned how to make this last week and it is yummy!
If i could stand the texture of pudding I would so try this... maybe I could freeze them because I def finished off my really healthy dinner with a candy bar yesterday....#healthfail
Avocado is really a great base because it has such a mild flavor!
thanks for the treat sweet friend!!!
This definitely does sound intriguing. I'll bet the avocado adds a great creaminess to the pudding.
I’d love for you to share this recipe (and any of your other favorite avocado recipes) in the avocado link-up/giveaway that I’m hosting with Kristen of Dine & Dish right now.http://bit.ly/NKF4rk
OKAY. I'm gonna be real...this sounds SO FREAKING WEIRD TO ME.
But I know that I would like it! Avocado as dessert = WHAAAT?
I need to get out of my comfort son and try it, yes?
YES.
Okay, done deal.
Love you and say thank you to your master chef husband for me ;)
