A Little Bit of Chocolate

Gluten-Free, Vegan

I don't know about you, but it takes everything in me to not stress eat. It's a major obstacle for me. This evening was rough, and after a busy and stressful week my sweet tooth was really aching. I decided to give in, but in a healthy way.

Here's what I came up with:

1 C Unsweetened Almond Milk
1/2 Banana
1/2 T  Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
1 t Agave Nectar
1/2 t Coconut Extract

 Blend until smooth. It comes out velvety, just sweet enough, and just a little coconutty. It was exactly what I wanted. I found a quiet corner and savored it. After that, and a few deep breaths, I felt worlds better. Best part? It was about 130 calories. You're welcome, friends.

More posts to come! Up next: a caprese chicken burger!
