Chocolate Mousse (Quick, Easy, Healthy & Delicious!)
I’m not sure whether the best thing about this recipe is that it’s so much quicker and easier to make than conventional mousse, full of good linseedy things like fibre and omega-3, it’s got no sugar and is low GI, it fills you up, got no naughty fats, amazingly delicious or just a great healthy way to get your chocolate fix! Despite the banana being the base it doesn’t taste particularly of strongly of banana. If you want a treat try this for breakfast; it’s a lot healthier than other chocolate breakfasts!

Stevia drops provide a calorie-free sugar-free sweetener. Use 3-5 drops instead of one teaspoon of sugar's sweetening power.
