This is my favorite healthy dessert yet!  I was unsure about it when I saw avocado as the main ingredient in the filling- but add some natural cocoa powder and it becomes rich, chocolately, and delicious!  The chocolate avocado pudding pie is a great healthy dessert to take to gatherings or just keep it all for yourseld (like I did! ) ; )
The crust is grain free and the whole recipe is perfect for those of you who are gluten free too- no grains! You would never know.
This makes 12 servings.  This is 1 blue, 1 orange, and 1 tsp for you 21 Day Fixers!  I know the good containers, but its totally worth it!

Crust

  1. Put almonds, walnuts, and pure vanilla extract in a blender or food processor and blend until it’s crumbly.
  2.  Add dates a few at a time and blend, until the crust sticks together slightly.  If the crust is still crumbly once all the dates are added, add a couple more.
  3. Press crust into the pie pan and put in the fridge for later. :)
