Low Carb Monday – Vegan Chocolate Avocado Ice Cream

July 18, 2016 by Adria Ali Leave a Comment

 

Dairy free, gluten free, nut free, and easy!  This vegan ice cream option could be just what you need to get through the chocolate cravings.  Avocados make for a wonderful additive to frozen treats, protein shakes, and even regular smoothies. They add a rich creamy texture to recipes, without adding eggs and dairy.  Avocados also hold the texture of froze desserts without excess water and moisture that melts and liquefies.  Chocolate avocado ice cream is a  creamy dessert that’s low in carbs, high in “healthy fats,” and satisfying.

Fitness Tips: Chocolate avocado ice cream using the Endangered Species brand of chocolate doesn’t have dairy.  It’s pure cocoa that’s non GMO, vegan certified, and gluten free.  If you can’t find it to make this recipe, use something similar that meets the vegan standard.

 

This rich and creamy ice cream is all natural and packed full of flavor.  The coffee gives it an additional kick.  Print and save for the times when you need something sweet without all the extra carbs and “bad fats.”
