"There's a green thing in my brownie?!?"

   And my response was "don't worry! It's suppose to be there... Hey, do you see that bird outside the window? No? Weird!"


  We haven't reached the part of our journey where I can openly discuss eating avocado, much less in their brownies. I'm working on it though! They knew that they were healthier!  The Brownie recipe came from the Teambeachbody.com website.  It was really easy to make. I did not have maple syrup on hand, but the prefect avocado was half a second from becoming rotten, so I just used honey and it worked. Don't try the batter and let the brownies cool completely (at least in my opinion!) I was slightly concerned that they would be rejected so I decided to make it extra special. I took several bananas, chopped them up, and placed them in the freezer overnight. Then once it was time for dessert, I quickly threw the frozen bananas in the food processor until they were all pureed and creamy. I used a muffin scoop and plopped some "ice cream" on the brownie. For a sauce, I warmed up a little bit of all natural peanut butter. You might need to add a teeny bit of coconut oil depending on your brand. Nathan did not want any peanut butter, but Sydney did. She said I put a little too much on. I guess that she is not quite the die hard fan that I am! I was so nervous when I handed over the bowls. I avoided eye contact so they wouldn't sense my fear. BUT THEY LOVED THEM!! In the words of Nathan, " DEEEELICIOUS!!"

Per Serving it's 1 yellow 1 tsp
with "sundae" you need to add 1 purple for banana ( I'm not exactly sure of the scoop size per banana so you'll have to keep track of how many you use and divide accordingly) also need to add another tsp if you go big and add warm Peanut Butter
