Even though I follow a healthy food plan, I still enjoy comfort food during stressful times. Lately I’ve been thinking about chocolate mousse, and created this Chocolate Protein Mousse to satisfy the craving. It’s light, creamy, and delicious!
I started with a typical raw vegan chocolate mousse recipe with avocado from Living on Live Food. I lightened up on the sweetener and used chocolate whey protein powder.
Keeping with the raw vegan inspiration, I garnished it here with a small piece of raw chocolate.
I hope you’ll give this Chocolate Protein Mousse a try. It’s a healthy, delicious, high-protein chocolate treat!
