Ingredients:
Serves: Makes about 6
11.5 oz. unsweetened dark chocolate
1 cup filtered water
1 15 oz. can coconut milk
1 tsp. vanilla
2 scoops Chocolate Protein Powder or Collagen
2 Tbsp. coffee or espresso

Melt the chocolate with the water in a saucepan on medium heat. Stir often, and when the chocolate starts to melt, pull off the stove (about two minutes). Continue to stir.
Add the chocolate to a blender and then add the collagen, coconut milk, coffee, and salt. Make sure the lid is on tight (careful—it’s hot), and then blend on low for about one minute and on high for about one minute.
Add the pudding to the popsicle molds and freeze for four hours or overnight.
If making pudding, pour into serving glasses or jars and place in the fridge for two hours or overnight.

This is a take on classic raspberry dressing, hello 1990’s. It’s delicious when paired with seasonal veggies and fruits like tomatoes, cucumbers, and peaches; fresh herbs like mint or basil; and tender greens like butterhead lettuce. Serve the dressing mixed in or on the side like I do. Garnish your salad with fresh lime wedges for squeezing over the salad. Top with cheeses like feta or cotija. Add crunch with nuts or seeds like pepitas. Always remember to season your salad with salt and pepper. It makes it taste so much better!
