My friend Jill just posted about avocado popsicles, which reminded me that I've been wanting to post about some sweet treats I've been making over and over again lately.
I was reading a magazine article on raw food diets that included this recipe for chocohana pudding...that's right chocolate and banana makes chocohana.
raw chocohana pudding
1 avocado
1/2 ripe banana
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup honey
1 Tablespoon coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
combine all ingredients in bowl of food processor and process until consistency is smooth and pudding-like.
**the first time I made this I forgot to add the coconut oil and it still turned out great...so if you don't have any coconut oil, you can still make it. I promise you, it tastes just like chocolate pudding! Delicious.
And the second sweet treat I've been diggin' is the blended frozen banana. I don't really have any clever names for this one. Maybe froba or banazen?
Anyway, you just freeze a banana and then take it out and put it in the blender or food processor and it comes out like the consistency of ice cream. I put a little peanut butter and honey on top, but next time I think I'm going to try putting the peanut butter and honey right in the food processor too!

We would place a popscicle stick in the banana, freeze, and eat off the stick.

Okay, first of all, I freaking love you! I tried the pudding recipe just now. But, I have a problem with reading directions. I put everything in, mixed up and tried and thought it was disgusting. I thought, there must be something wrong with me that I don't like this! Why can't I like healthy foods??? Then I looked at the recipe again and realized I forgot the honey. Now I have a new fave dessert! And bananas are going in the freezer for tomorrow!
