Kelly Leveque's Dark Chocolate Avocado Mousse

When the sweet tooth seems like it can’t be tamed, I know there are plenty of ways to satisfy it without spiking my blood sugar.

Swearing off sweets entirely can backfire and make the craving even stronger. I always tell my clients to replace before you remove, so if you want to reduce the amount of sweets you eat, find healthier options to replace the sugar-filled versions.

This breakfast treat is filled with the Fab 4 (protein, fat, fiber, and greens) to turn off those hunger hormones without impacting blood sugar. The mousse takes about 5 minutes total and makes one serving.

Ingredients
1 scoop chocolate protein powder containing 20 to 30 grams of protein
2 large very ripe avocados
2 tablespoons milled chia seeds
2 tablespoons organic cacao powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 drops of organic liquid monk fruit
1/2 cup of unsweetened almond milk
Pinch of Himalayan salt

Topping options: 1 tablespoon hemp hearts, 1 tablespoon shredded coconut, or 1/4 cup in-season sliced fruit

Directions
In a food processor or high-speed blender, blend all the ingredients together until they reach a smooth, pudding-like consistency, about 2 minutes.

Refrigerate for 1 hour and serve in a small bowl with your desired topping.

Store any extra in a sealable glass container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
