A Beautiful Day - My Actifit Report Card: February 3 2019
We finally had a beautiful winter day that felt like spring. It reached a very appreciated 60 degrees, after being -5 degrees just a few days ago. @crypt-skip and I headed to Ramsey Lake State Park for some hiking and walking around the park. The driving loop around the park was barricaded off. I'm not sure why, I've never known them to close off vehicle access before, but since we were walking we had the whole inner park to ourselves. It was great! Being in the park alone like that was eerie. It gave me an idea for a fiction story that I want to write. About a couple that goes hiking in a deserted park like this, not realizing that there is a very sinister reason for why the park has been closed.
After we got home, in time for the Superbowl, I decided we needed a treat after all that walking. I made us chocolate pudding, but the ultra healthy way.
This is all natural and no cooking required. Here's the recipe:
You put all these ingredients together in a food processor:
1 banana (the riper, the better)
1 avocado (Yes, avocado!)
1/2 cup cocoa powder (unsweetened)
3 Tablespoons almond butter
3 Tablespoons honey
1Tablespoon almond milk (regular milk is fine also)
Blend together until smooth. Chill and serve! You won't believe how smooth, creamy, and chocolatey it is. That recipe made the 4 servings in the picture.
Now you'll have to excuse me, I have a nice cold pudding waiting for me in the fridge and I hear it calling my name.
Have a great start to the new week!

Well since I have eaten one of the portions now, I can testify that it was delicious.

You're looking cool in your shades! 😎
It's crazy how much the temperature can vary sometimes, but I'm happy to get these nice days. The super bowl was... interesting, I guess. It was kind of a slow game for the majority of the time, but the ending got a little more exciting. 🏈
I hope you enjoyed your healthy pudding. It does look good! 😃

Thanks, it was very sunny for a change. Love that vitamin D! I thought the Super bowl was boring, and disappointing since my team didn't win. But as a bulls fan I'm used to watching my team lose. 😣

A walk in nature is always a great activity. I will definitely be trying out that recipe, so cool and healthy 👍😀

Let me know what you think of it, if you get a chance to try it. So much better, and better for you than the sugar filled store bought kind. And yes, the state park is so much more interesting than the treadmill.

Nice count and great recipe.

Thanks, it's a recipe from the Whole30 food plan, where you can have nothing with sugar, no dairy, only certain "good fats" of which includes avocados, no grains - you basically have to cook everything from scratch and use whole natural foods as much as possible.
Looks like a lovely park to visit :)

It was really pretty last fall. We did quite a bit of hiking on the trails. I can't wait to see it in the spring.

Chocolate pudding with avocado? How cool! Never heard of that before but sometimes you just gotta get to that sweet tooth!
I'd never heard of it before either. It was a recipe from Whole30 if you've ever heard of that. You'd never know it had avocado or banana. It just tastes like smooth creamy chocolate! And there's something about this, when I eat a serving I'm satisfied and I don't want more chocolate. If I eat a regular dessert, like a candy bar or piece of cake, I found I am craving more sweets.

Kudos for such an amazing step number, you really had a long and beautiful walk. I have tried that chocolate pudding and wow, it tastes amazing!
Isn't it delicious? We had one again last night. Such a healthy treat. Not low calorie, but at least you're getting healthy nutrition for your body and not empty sugar calories like regular pudding.
Wow 😮 you two had a wonderful time together. That lovely. And that treat looks really scrumptious. I will try that . Thanks for the recipe. Awesome 👏

Yes we do have fun. And you won't be sorry if you try that pudding. Mine is gone now :( but it's a treat, not an everyday food so I probably will wait awhile before making it again.
That’s awesome blueeyes. I see you are a happy lady. Oh, when I went shopping yesterday I made sure to get the ingredients that I was missing for that pudding recipe and I will make it tomorrow for my snack and I’ll share it as well and of course crediting you. I can imagine it really delicious. Can’t wait for tomorrow. Thanks and have a great day.
