Easy Raw food avocado chocolate mousse // enkel chokladmousse avokado raw

If you want a dessert which is vegan, paleo  or just healthy for you, the avocado chocolate mousse is a good alternative. It will not taste like a "normal" chocolate mousse full of cream, but avocado and cocoa blends together better than expected. The result is a thick, heavy chocolate-alike texture that does not taste too sweet, you can feel the base of avocado a little bit but the cacao is dominant and you will just eat a little bit because it makes you full so quickly.



INGREDIENTS ( serves 2)

  • 1-2 soft avocados (1 if it's really big) // 1-2 mogna avokado 
  • 1-3 tbsp honey or agave syrup // 1-3 msk honung eller agavesirap 
  • 2-3 tbsp raw cocoa // 2-3 msk raw kakao ( normal cacao is ok but it will be nicer taste with raw cacao) 
  • Choice of fruit or berry to serve to the mousse // frukt eller bär att servera till ( I used raspberry) 
  • Dark shredded chocolate to sprinkle on top of the mousse // mörk riven choklad att sprinkla på moussen 

HOW TO DO IT

  • Mix all ingredients in a bowl with a mixer. Start with the lower doses of cacao and honey/syrup
  • Taste to see how much honey/syrup and cacao you prefer, add more according to what you like more 
  • Serve with your fruit or berry of choices

If you wish salmon, put the files in a pan and fry them on both sides. Put spices as you wish, we used salt, pepper, red pepper powder and garlic powder. You can frie them completely in the pan or put them in the oven in the end.

Slice the garlics in thin slices, heat the oil (not too warm!)  in the pan and put the garlics there for a while. Then add the spinach, stir around until the spinach is warm and then add the beans. Now you can add your pasta and mix everything.

Avocado snack

Very hungry before dinner? Need something quick before or after the gym? Or are you longing for something sweet but want to eat something healthy instead?

I usually take an avocado, simply slice it in two, remove the stone and add some juice from a lime or lemon, and some salt. I eat it directly with a small spoon, it's so quick and tastes delicious!

Home made root vegetable chips

It's super easy to make your own root vegetable chips in the oven, and so much more healthy than the potato chips you find in the store. Of course you can buy root vegetable chips in the store too but they can be quite expensive.

 
Peel your favourite choice of root vegetable. Don't make them to thin, since they easily get burned in the oven. I took beetroot, carrot and parsnip. Provence sentenced salt, lemon, olive oil and Parmesan to add taste


 
I mixed the carrot with olive oil, salt, and some peel from a lemon

 
The parsnip was mixed with olive oil and salt de Provence
 

The beetroot got mixed with olive oil, Parmesan and salt de Provence


 Put them one by one on oven paper and put them in the convection oven, 180-200 C (356-393 Fahrenheit) for about 10 minutes. If you have regular oven use the same heat but roast them for 20-30 minutes instead, and turn them every now and then.
 

 
And this is the wonderful result!
 
Unfortunately the parsnip got to thin and got burned very quickly, but the carrot and root beat taste wonderful. It's a great snack and goes very well with you favorite glass of wine or sparkling :)
 
Recipe:
-Root vegetable such as root beat, carrot and parsnip
-Olive Oil
-Salt and seasoned salt
-Parmesan
-Peel from a lemon
 
Convection oven 180-200 C (356-393 Fahrenheit) and roast them for about 10 minutes.
Regular oven 180-200 C (356-393 Fahrenheit)  and roast them for 20-30 mins instead, and turn them eveynow and then.
