Hey, friends!
Happy Thursday!
It totally feels like a Friday to me, but I’m still okay with the fact that its Thursday. It’s Basically Friday anyways.
A good day in my opinion starts off on time….and with breakfast of course.
*overnight buckwheat, chia seeds, hemp seeds, pumpkin, blueberries, and almond butter*
That means, if I have an early appointment I must be on time. No, not on time early.
I was that girl who probably wouldn’t bother going to class if I was 2 minutes late, because I despise being late. I have not a clue why, but its just a pet peeve of mine. It makes me happy when I’m not in a rush and have time to get to an appointment or class.
Anyways, that was a super random tangent that had nothing to do with this post.
I have a fun pudding recipe for you all today.
While snacking this, I busted out some tunes when some good old Naughty By Nature came on.
Which lead to this recipe title…yes I’m that lame.
Let’s just call it the OPP (yah, you know me).
You down with the outrageous pumpkin puddin’?
Ingredients – 1 cup pumpkin, 1/2 an avocado, 1/2 tablespoon cacao powder, 1 scoop protein powder, stevia (you may need a little bit of milk to get it moving).
Blend in a food processor or magic bullet and voila.
Make this now and enjoy the magical taste.
Avocado is heavenly in anything. Sweet, savoury, um I guess that’s it. Still, its just dang delicious.
This snack was perfect to have before the dinner munchies ensued.
I really wanted to post that marinara recipe I talked about last week, but my sister borrowed my camera and left it at her friends…which has the pictures on it. So you will all have to wait. I’m sure you were dying to know anyways.
Do you like avocado? What are your favourite avocado recipes?
Hope you all have an amazing day!!

I just love the pumpkin flavor, I could live off of it. Have you ever had pumpkin butter… that is one my favorite gems
Me too!
I’ve actually never tried pumpkin butter! I don’t think they sell it where I live, but now I’m going to be on the look out because that sounds super tasty.
This recipe looks amazing! I love pumpkin and avocado so why not put them together?! Love it!
Exactly what I thought!
I actually despise avocado. I tried it again this past weekend in hopes that justttt maybeee i’d like it, but nope! Can you taste the avocado in the pumpking pudding??
I really hated avocado too, I started liking it like 2 years ago. It was just one of those weird things where my taste buds changed as I got older I guess.
Nope, can’t taste it in the pudding at all! Especially if you add cinnamon/pumpkin pie spice or stevia.
Great! Can’t wait to try it now, thanks
pumpkin flavored EVERYTHING is my jam lol. I love your addition of avocado too, great way to add creaminess and healthy fasts!
I am obsessed with pumpkin anything! It is just such a great flavour!! Yes to creaminess and healthy fats!
I can’t get enough of them lately!
I still have yet to make a sweet treat with avocado! Need to make this, now.
Do it! It was my second time, it seemed weird at first but its really delicious!
Well, you know I’m gonna have to make this now due to my newfound love of avocado everything
And with pumpkin too?!?! YUM! I may try adding in some coconut shavings for crunch…or chocolate chips 
Hope you have a great day girlfran!
Oh man, I am totally addicted to avocado as well. Seriously eat at least a whole one everyday. Its just so good in anything! Sweet or savoury.
Definitely add something for a crunch! I had to add some peanut flour paste on top, since I can never eat anything plain!
Well. You know I’d be aaall over this pumpkin pudding, if I could get pumpkin. But, I won’t wallow in my own self pity and jealousy here…
So ill just tell you I’m horrible at time keeping and being on time. To be honest, I don’t mind people having to wait on me- I am worth the wait!( Haha, maybe…)
Ooh yeah, I made your turkey burgers! Well I used chicken instead and they were fab.u.lous. I loved the nooch in them, and how healthy they are- all the store bought burgers round here contain less than desireable ingredients- so it was nice to have some tasty clean burgers for once. I can totally see me making big batches of these to freeze to have on hand. Thanks for another awesome recipe Lisa<3.
Xxx
I totally forgot you can’t get pumpkin there! Boo!!!
Haha, you are totally worth the wait.
I’m so glad you liked the burgers! They are definitely tasty with the nooch in them, agreed!
Its always so annoying when burgers have yucky added things in them, so its nice to make your own clean ones!
Mmmm!!!! Sounds so yummy! I just bought stevia today, and vanilla stevia, because I’m getting ingredients to make some of your recipes
One question: How do you buy pumpkin?
The OPP ha ha, that’s cute
Yay
I buy my pumpkin canned. Its just in a can where the beans and tomatoes are locating at my grocery store!
Thanks! I will be buying pumpkin soon
I like avocado but I can literally get through a whole one every day, so I try to limit them a bit so it doesn’t become excessive (although I am sure many people would be fine eating a whole avocado, depending on their individual needs!) I am making that pudding tonight – I went out and bought an avocado as soon as I saw this post!
xxx
I totally eat a whole avocado mostly everyday, well at least a 1/2 one every day!
Totally depends on people’s nutritional needs though of course.
I hope you like it
Have a great Saturday!xo
I’m the same with being late – in fact, when I was in PRESCHOOL, my mum dropped me off five minutes late and I refused to go to school that day. Obviously I had no control over my punctuality at that age, but it still rankled that I would ever be considered anything other than perfectly on time…
That is so cute that your mom would drop you off early to preschool as well.
I wish my mom did that, she is late to everything. We actually tell her things start half an hour before they actually do because punctuality is not her strong suit
Mmm this sounds so tasty Lisa! I love avocados, and this is an interesting idea to pair it with the pumpkin and make it into one glorious bowl of magical ness
It was definitely magical
Oh my… this sounds awesome! I love pumpkin and avocados!!
Me as well!! If there was coconut in it, it just would’ve been a trio of my favourite things;)
I love hidden avocado!!
It’s the best, right!
AWESOME!! I love avocado with ANYTHING…this is perfect. Thank you for sharing!
No problemo
I can’t believe I used to despise avocado…something was wrong with me;)
Yum! I love pumpkin food! This looks great and I never would think to add avocado. I love avocado, especially to make guacamole.
Avocado is definitely the best in guac!
And pumpkin is definitely so versatile that it’s one of my favourite things to use!
This sounds really good. I love avocados but I have never braved them in anything sweet. Got to do it! I’m constantly reading about people putting them in smoothies.
You have got to try it! I was so hesitant at first, but now I’m obsessed!
I’ve put them in smoothies actually before and it makes them nice and creamy if you don’t have bananas on hand!
Every single one of your posts reveals something else that we have in common…it’s getting kind of crazy! I absolutely loathe being late. I show up everywhere at least 15 minutes early and, if I’m late, would rather just not go at all. I’ve always been that way! It actually comes in handy for auditions and working though because people in the entertainment industry can’t stand if you’re late!
And I looove pumpkin! I haven’t had any in a while…I need to change that asap!
That is so crazy!
We are twins at heart;)
I am so early for everything, I’m beginning t think people think I’m odd haha.
You definitely need to pick some more pumpkin up! Its just so versatile, I love that stuff!
That pudding recipe looks phenomenal! Looooove pumpkin everything. Always. All the time. Haha. As for avocado, don’t even get me starrrrted.
Oh girl same here!
Pumpkin and avocado are two of my favourites, so I just had to combine them:)
Yes! Sounds just like something I would love!
