Nourish Me Chocolate Mousse
Jul
I had my wisdom teeth removed a couple of days ago. I'm in bed for the second day and loving the rest.
It is one of the first times in 5 years with kids I have had 2 days in bed with no kids around. As unpleasant as it is to look like a goldfish on steroids I am LOVING this time to recoup totally on my own in quiet.
I am craving something sweet right now having had 2 days on soup. This is what I have just whipped up. It took about 3 minutes to make and it is so yummy.
Delicious, simple, nourishing and hard not to go back for seconds. You will not believe how delicious this is. No you cannot taste the avocado. This recipe can be halved if making for one but you will want more. Trust me.
Taste tested by one sugar loving husband and 2 x fussy 4 year olds. All love it (even the one who refuses to eat avocado) Shhhhh.. What avocado??

Thank you for the recipe! Do you know if this freezes/thaws well? Or how long it lasts in the fridge? Not sure how quickly we will get through this and don’t want it to go to waste!
It’s best to be made and eaten fresh!
