Recipe: Delicious raw vegan chocolate spread or dessert

I experimented with a few ingredients and this utterly creamy and awesome spread was the result. Needless to say I loved it so much I made it 3 times last week! Yum!

This is so simple and fast that it beats any cold cereals, toast or other energy snack.

Delicious raw vegan chocolate spread

Ingredients:

2 ripe avocados, peeled and stoned
1 ripe banana
no more than 1/3 cup of water (add as little as possible)
1 tsp maple syrup or preferred sweetener, as needed
1 drop mint essence
a dash of 70% black cocoa (or your favourite chocolate powder)

Preparation:

Place ingredients in your Vitamin or food processor, blend well, pour into a container and refrigerate. Add water if too thick, or add more cocoa to thicken.

Uses:

Excellent as a dessert, or spread on your favourite fruit/bread/crackers/wraps/breakfast cereals...
You may also add berries, coconut flakes etc as you please.

Variations: this is just another way of getting protein from avocados. So you could use Maca powder instead of cocoa, or any vegetable powder. However, cacao completely hides the avocado taste!

About a week ago I went to my local supermarket and I noticed that the till assistant had a sling on his bandaged middle finger. I am curious by nature , so I couldn't help asking him what happened to his finger. Carl, that was his name, promptly showed me and my daughter his finger (after taking off bandage and sling of course). To have an idea of what it looked like, have a look at Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paronychia It looks painful, doesn't it? He said that when he was watching a football on TV, he didn't realise that his nail-biting had gone a bit over the limit, and he had torn some flesh. His doctor was about to see him in two days, he reassured me, and he probably expected to be given antibiotics to treat the infection. Not happy with what I saw, I suggested a few herbs that could help him earlier than his G.P. appointment. However, once I got hom...

How to publish a book with Amazon Create Space

How do you self publish a book? I am asked this question quite often now, soI have decided to put my little experience in writing to help you out. Here is the link you want: https://www.createspace.com/ I worked out lots of information after signing as much of the info only comes out after having a title etc and going through the whole process. For example the speed of the proof and the price are only found out in the very end of the order... So, let's go in order.

You can do this for free or you can you their (paid) services to create a cover and proof-read the book. You can also use their free templates (useful for margins, headers and page breaks).
