Every year when I’m planning out my 30 Days to Feeling Fabulous meal plans, I make sure to include the foods that people want to eat, including snacks and desserts. This past year, I included this recipe for Avocado Brownies in the program and they were hands-down the most popular item in the entire month-long meal plan!
Who can resist a decadent dark chocolate brownie that’s made with healthier ingredients and packs some avocado that no one else will even know is there unless you choose to tell them?
