It was strange, I had hoped that I would wake up after the terrible cravings and feel better. This blog is about being honest for me and the truth is, I wasn't. I stuck to my morning routine but still just wanted something sweet. I specifically spent the day wanted ice cream. I couldn't stop thinking about it. It made me feel crazy and I was not going to be content with a fruit sorbet the way I had last week.
I decided to make up my own recipe for the dessert bullet. Some healthy alternative to the Hagen Daz I was craving like a crazy person. I used 1 banana, ground up cashew, and a square of dark chocolate, and vanilla.
I used a square of this. I am not a huge banana fan so I knew this would be a little tough on me. I could absolutely taste the banana but I could also get the richness from the chocolate and the cashews. It was actually really tasty but the banana was a bit over powering. I think in the future I might use a few ice cube tray squares of frozen plain greek yogurt and half of banana. The amazing part was that I could not even finish it, nor did I need to. It was amazing, a small treat and my craving was gone. I don't even feel the least bit guilty.
I am curious to your favorite guilt free desserts.
Progress: feeling good
