Hey Pam!

Sounds delish!

I can't really get over the idea of avocados in pudding. Does anyone have a review of this?

[isowish]

I'm a little nervous too. Can you taste the avocado, or is it just to make the pudding thick?

[NiniJan]

I made this and no, you can't taste the avocado!

It's so creamy...... I had it with sliced bananas.

[Irizary]

I'd like to try it without knowing there were avocados in it.

Hi All,

When you make this, if you think you can see or taste the avo's, just add alittle more carob powder to make more choc. looking.
It is very good as NiniJan said!

Hello NiniJan...good to hear from you! I had sent you a PM on RFT awhile back, but now I guess they aren't there and I don't believe you ever received it. Sounds like all is well!

Hugs to All,

Pansy

I've made this before, and it's lovely. you have to eat it quickly, tho, cuz the avos are better if they are really fresh. I've done it as a pudding, and in a pie crust. It's a great way to introduce people to the versatility of raw foods.

<-- not raw, but raw-friendly

I used to make avocado puddings all the time before I was raw.
My favourite was a blend of chocolate flavoured soya milk, avocado and banana. You couldn't taste the avocado at all.

I've always wanted to make a raw version, but carob powder makes me throw up

I do make berry avocado puddings - my favourite is avocado, banana and strawberry, but other berries are nice too. It never ever tastes of avocado. Avocados make heavenly puddings, so creamy and delicious.

Is maple syrup considered a raw food? I wouldn't think so, given that it's made by boiling sap.
