Avocados are packed full of nutrients and so versatile. If you love chocolate pudding, you’ll love avocado chocolate pudding!

Avocados are packed with

• Magnesium
• Potassium
• Fiber
• Healthy fats

Now, let’s chat about the calories for a minute. Many people get wrapped around the axle about the high caloric content of avocados. But, low calorie doesn’t mean better. I like to use Hunt’s Chocolate pudding as an example. You can get the low-fat kind that is 100 calories. But what else does this give you? If you guessed nothing, you’d be correct! You don’t get healthy fats or magnesium or fiber or protein! You just get some empty calories.

So…why not make chocolate pudding out of an avocado and celebrate the pudding AND the nutrients? 

Chocolate Avocado Pudding

This avocado pudding is a delicious and healthy dessert option that is made with ripe avocados, sweetener, and coconut milk.
