Raw Chocolate Avocado Pudding
Great for Week 1 and Week 2
4 servings
Ingredients
1/2 cup organic dates, pitted and cut in half
3 oz. soaking water
1 medium very ripe avocado
2 1/2 - 3 1/2 tablespoons raw cocoa powder
1 1/2 tablespoons raw honey
1/8 teaspoon sea salt
directions
Place dates in a small bowl and add enough water to cover dates. Allow to soak for at least 30 - 40 minutes.
Remove the dates from the water and place in the bowl of a high-speed blender. Measure 3 0z. of the soaking water, reserving the remaining water and add to the blender along with the remaining ingredients.
Start blending on slow and then crank up the blending speed to high. Adjust the cocoa to taste.
You may need to add some additional soaking water to facilitate blending. Do so in small increments. Adding too much water may result in a runnier consistency.
