A giant healthy bowl of chocolate goodness? Yes! See instructions for variation ideas. I use gluten-free oat bran. Ingredients:
3 -4 ounces shredded zucchini |
60 g oat bran |
2 -4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder |
1 3/4 cups water (or liquid of choice, dairy, soymilk, etc) |
artificial sweetener, of choice to taste (i use sweet leaf liquid chocolate flavor stevia) |
Directions:
1. Mix everything in a big microwave safe bowl.
2. Microwave on high for 5 minutes or until done, stopping to stir a few times.
3. Top with nuts, nut butters, or more chocolate!
4. Fun variations add ins: ginger and apricots, dried or fresh cranberries or blueberries, cinnamon and bacon, fresh cherries with almonds, oranges, all of the above!
5. NOTE: I actually use a tiny crock pot for this, letting it cook on the -warm- setting for about 5 hours, stirring occasionally.
