THE SAVVY SOYBEAN

Hell yeah, it’s vegan. It’s also creamier, richer, fluffier and more chocolatey than any chocolate pudding I’ve ever tasted. It’s also good for you… like, really good for you. However, this pudding has a seriously secret ingredient. You can feel its creamy texture and benefit from all its nutrients, but you can’t taste it… not one bit.

Ingredient X: Avocado.

Cringe, recoil in fear, gag, whatever you need to do… then buck up and make the pudding. Used as a creamy base for any dessert or smoothie, the avocado will become neutral when paired with a dominating flavor. This time: chocolate!

This really looks wonderful. I've only recently found your blog and must tell you how much I enjoy your recipes and the food you feature. I'm not yet a vegetarian but I'm on the brink. Blogs like this one inspire me. I hope you are having a wonderful day. Blessings...Mary

I've always wanted to try throwing an avocado into a chocolate based pudding like this - but avocados haven't been in season in SO long. Will have to try it this summer :) looks delicious, I bet the texture's amazing.
