  • These decadent Chocolate Avocado Truffles are a low-sugar dessert that have just four ingredients and can easily be customized for food allergies and sensitivities! — INGREDIENTS 1 Hass avocado skin and pit removed 2 oz dark chocolate. I used 86% dark chocolate and would recommend at least 70% dark chocolate in this recipe 1 tbsp maple syrup or other liquid sweetener, like agave, honey, brown rice syrup, etc. 1/4 cup cocoa powder — INSTRUCTIONS 1. Melt the dark chocolate in a microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between each microwave session, until melted (I needed about two minutes total). Puree the Hass avocado in a mini food chopper for 1-2 minutes, or until a smooth mixture forms. 2. Add melted chocolate and maple syrup, return the lid to the food chopper, and puree another minute, or until smooth and evenly combined. 3. Transfer mixture to a freezer-safe bowl with lid and freeze for 30 minutes, or until firm enough to roll into balls. 4. Place cocoa powder in a bowl or container to coat the truffles with. 5. Roll the truffles by taking one tablespoon of truffle mixture, rolling it into a ball with the palms of your hand. 6. Place the truffles into the cocoa powder and turn until evenly dusted with cocoa powder. 7. Put in an enclosed container and refrigerate until serving. Refrigerate any leftovers up to one week. — — #lowsugar #lowsugarmonday #avocados #avocado #maple #maplesyrup #chocolate #darkchocolate #chocolatetruffles #lowsugarchocolate #yummy #recipe #vegetarianrecipe #vegetarian
  • Travelling this summer? Don’t let a stomach bug ruin your trip. 1. Wash your hands often. 2. Be mindful of the water you drink. Anyone have a hand held water filtration system? 3.
