Chocolate Banana Pudding

Finally success!  This recipe took me three tries to get it right.  But, I am proud to say this pudding is yummy and sugar free.  Plus, the bananas add potassium, which of course equals extra nutrition!

Chocolate Banana Pudding

2 cups unsweetened almond milk
1/3 cup liquid honey
2 bananas
1 free-range egg
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup arrowroot starch

Mix all ingredients in a blender until smooth.  Cook in a medium sauce pan over medium-high heat for 8 - 10 minutes, stirring constantly.  Chill and serve!

Better late than never

Alright, it looks like I need a little more time for my chocoate recipes.  I am now two behind schedule!  I am currently working on three chocolate dishes and will have them posted before the end of the month.  Please check back to find out what they are.  I am sure they will be worth the wait!

If at first you don't succeed

Try, try again!

Ok, that's what I have to do.  I am afraid my recipe of the week didn't turn out so great today.  And now it's late and I simply don't have the time, or energy.  So, this recipe will have to wait a few days.  Instead of posting something not-so-hot, I will make a few modifications and try it again.  But stay tuned chocoholics, because it's gonna be good!  :)

Chocolate!

February is chocolate month!  With Valentine's day coming, what better way to celebrate than with chocolate?  Valentine's day means love, and I loooooove chocolate!

With it's antioxidants and mood enhancing neurotransmitters, no wonder it makes us so happy! 

Most chocolate has added sugar and fat, that make it not so healthy for us, but I can show you that it doesn't have to be.  Yes, you can have your chocolate cake and eat it too!
