Guilt-Free Chocolate Pudding

[additional-authors]
April 4, 2014

My clients always a share with me that no matter how much they follow my guidelines to eating healthy and having a PCF combo with every meal (except for dinner) every once in-a while, they get sweet tooth. Totally fine. I encourage them to go ahead and follow that sweet tooth, instead of trying to pretend that it’s not there or to munch on sugar-free desserts that are loaded with preservatives and fake sweeteners. Hey, we are all humans, I get it!

So… I went ahead and created this delicious Guilt-free-sugar-free-dairy free Chocolate pudding that takes less than 5 minutes to prepare. My secret ingredient here is … Drum rolls please… Sweet potatoes! Yes. They add nutrients, vitamins, fiber and the right amount of sweetness to this yummy recipe.


Guilt-Free Chocolate Pudding
Serves: 3-5
Prep time: 5 minutes

Ingredients
3 small sweet potatoes, baked until soft (or you can microwave them as well).
1/2 C unsweetened Almond or coconut milk
3 T unsweetened cocoa powder
Pinch of sea salt
1 tsp. good quality vanilla extract
1-2 T Agave nectar
Directions
1. After baking the sweet potatoes, rove the skin and add to a high speed blender or a food processor.
2. Add remaining ingredients and end well until smooth in texture, about 1-2 minutes.
3. Serve in individual bowls and add fresh berries on top or sprinkle unsweetened shredded coconut.


Enjoy!
