Enjoy it and feed your body these nutrient packed superfoods it needs:

Avocados

This superfood contains 20 vitamins and minerals, which is why it’s on the top of the superfood list. Plus here are some of the many health benefits of avocados:

• Suppresses Appetite and Stabilizes Blood Sugar -Avocados contain monounsaturated fats which are good for you. They contain healthy fats that help you feel satiated by sending your brain a signal to turn off your appetite.  These fats help keep blood sugar stable by slowing down the breakdown of carbohydrates.
• Supports Healthy Vision – Avocados contain lutein and zeaxanthin, two phytochemicals that provide the antioxidants that help minimize damage from ultraviolet light.
• Aids in Digestion – Avocados are a high fiber food with 6-7 grams of fiber per half an avocado. They help maintain a healthy digestive system.

Cacao

This superfood contains an abundance of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and phytonutrients. Some of the amazing health benefits of cacao include:

• Iron-Rich – Cacao is the highest plant-based source of iron. Getting sufficient iron is important for maintaining energy, focus, healthy immune system and more.
• A Feel-Good Food – Cacao contains anandamide, which is a natural euphoric compound that lifts mood. The other mood enhancing ingredient in cocoa is tryptophan, a natural anti-depressant.

Decadent Dessert that’s a Delicious Treat and Medicine Too

With two of Nature’s nutrient-dense superfoods paired together, this dessert is not only a treat, it is medicine for your mind, body, and soul. Don’t be surprised if you’ll want second helpings and don’t worry about indulging. It’s good for you and will make you feel g-o- o-d.

Grace Notes

It’s best to serve in traditional French mousse dishes to enhance the appeal. Sprinkle with toasted hazelnuts, almonds, coconut, or shaved chocolate to add a fool proof disguise to this decadent looking dessert. Your guests will never know you are feeding them “medicine”.

Enjoy and Live Well with Zest!
