Day 3 of my Raw Food Challenge

Hi Guys,
I am a little tired tonight, felt really good this morning though. One thing I have noticed that I am not waking up hungry of a morning, as I usually am.  Did a 5km run, and felt really good during, think I even went a little faster!

Chocolate Moose Heaven
Breakfast was a green smoothie, really loving these at the moment.  Apple for morning tea and leftover dinner (my tomato rice special) for lunch along with some salad.  That was really filling and kept me going till dinner time.  Sitting down with my girls watching Charlie and the Chocolate factory and guess what I felt like......chocolate!!!! You can actually buy raw chocolate bars at Mrs Flannery's (the new one with Johnny Depp :)), but I was too lazy for that.  So I decided to make my own Chocolate Moose.  I put 2 frozen banana's, 1 avocado, around 2tbsp cacao powder, 1 tbsp virgin coconut oil and 1tbsp of agave nectar and a little water in the blender and gave it a good go.  What was the result was a beautiful, chocolaty, velvet moose.  It was so decandent, especially with some added strawberries.  I am really loving chocolate at the moment, and actually prefer the raw chocolate flavour, which is more of a dark chocolate taste. On a lot of websites Cacao is actually classed as a Superfood as it is high in antioxidents......so I am looking after myself. ;)
After this antioxident feast, I was not hungry for dinner so that was it. 
I am off to bed now, so till next time. :)
