I love chocolate! I can’t live without it, so I wanted to make a healthier version of a chocolate dessert my whole family could enjoy, as well as those with IBS or following the low-FODMAP diet. Thus, the vegan chocolate coconut pudding was born!

Since I also have Hashimoto’s disease, I like using organic, non-GMO brands for my ingredients. I like cacao powder as it is a great source of antioxidants, as well as magnesium and iron. Dark chocolate has inflammation-fighting properties, which makes it heart-healthy and may help reduce cardiovascular risk, which can become an issue for those with Hypothyroidism.

Further Food Commentary:

This is a great dessert full of minerals from the chocolate, Himalayan salt and maple syrup. As a gluten and dairy free dish, it’s great for those with an autoimmune disorder. Discarding the top layer of coconut milk helps to lower the fat and saturated fat content, making it a safer option for those with heart disease or anyone trying to maintain a healthy body weight. There is still some saturated fat in the chocolate, so enjoy in moderation!
