Paleo chocolate pudding smoothie
Ingredients (makes 2 servings):
1/2 ripe avocado
2/3 cup zucchini, peeled
2 pitted deglet noor dates (dates from Saudi Arabia or the UAE)
2 tbl. cacao powder (NOT cocoa powder, cacao powder)
1 scoop vanilla or chocolate protein powder (protein source of your choosing, i.e. whey, egg white, etc)
2 tbl. unsweetened flaked coconut (omit if you don’t like the flavor of coconut)
2 tbl. pumpkin seeds
1 cup “milk” of choice
2 ice cubes
Method:
Add all ingredients to Vitamix blender and blend on smoothie/frozen setting until smooth. No Vitamix? Use a food processor, a regular bender won’t do. Add one packet of monk fruit in the raw or stevia in the raw if you don’t think it will be sweet enough for you.
