First of all, wow. I was so surprised at the results of both of these desserts. You HAVE to try them. No questions.
Dessert #1:
Banana Soft Serve
'Nuff said. This could very well be the best vegan "ice cream" ever! And I'm not usually a banana ice cream kind of person. But I went all out....I took those 2 frozen bananas and put 'em in my little food processor and mixed every 5 seconds, because it wouldn't chop them up (they were too big for my poor little 3-cup Cuisinart). But I stuck with it and sure enough....it became the most perfect soft serve ever. And I even made the cocoa/agave chocolate syrup to go on top. It was heavenly!!
Dessert #2:
Chocolate Pudding
(makes 3-5 servings, depending on size)
3/4 cup silken tofu
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tsp vanilla extract
Put it all in a food processor and process until smooth and creamy. I might try agave next time instead of the maple syrup.
That's all I have for today. I think it's enough! Two freakishly easy desserts. You don't have any excuses now for not having a nice healthy treat once in a while. I'm definitely going to make the banana soft serve a weekly event.

I'm a classical musician and a vegetarian. I eat mostly a plant-based diet and love finding new vegan & raw recipes to try. Blogging is a new passion of mine and I try to post as often as I can (between rehearsals and concerts) Eat smart!
One of the great things about being a vegetarian, you can eat lots of dessert and still stay fit and in shape. Of course this only works if the rest of your diet is solid and healthy.
ReplyDeleteYou're right.....but I can't eat too many! I try to only make desserts once in a while because even though they're mostly healthy, they have calories too! Like you said, I have to keep the rest of my diet healthy, as well as my exercise habits :)
