Avocado Chocolate Pudding

WHAT?? you say! Avocado pudding? Yep! It's good, I promise. I did not tell my family what was in it even though they love avocados, they just knew it was creamy, silky, rich and chocolatey. In fact they couldn't finish their serving it was "very chocolaty" they say lol. I loved it, and have made it a couple times since for my chocolate cravings.

Rice Pudding

Here's a wonderful, easy recipe to use up leftover rice. Mine came together in less than 25 minutes. Let it cool a little and you've got a creamy rice pudding to enjoy. It's been so long since I've made this, it was a nice treat to have. (silly me, I've made this before in '08, it's been that long.)
