Ready for a healthy treat that the whole family can enjoy? Whip up this chocolate avocado pudding in less than 5 minutes, let it sit overnight, and BOOM!, dessert is served!
Now, a little side note … if you’re thinking this is gonna be a super rich “normal” type of pudding, this isn’t it. This pudding is different, healthier due to the avocado base, but totally worth a try. Plus, if your kiddos haven’t had regular pudding they’ll probably think this is a scrumptious, thick chocolate yogurt!

This recipe was spurred by my search for healthier alternatives to our normal meals and desserts. I’m logging it as one of my successes! I can hardly believe I’ve been munching on avocados as my dessert these past few evenings. It’s kind of crazy … and much better for me than a pint of Ben & … you know who!
I’d love to hear if you have any go-to hidden veggie recipes … leave me links in the comments!
