WHOLESOME NUTELLA ๐๐๐ฅ
Hello My Dearest Foodies,
This is one of my older recipe, however, I just made it recently again and I took photo of these mini pitas. Well some of them are made with avocado, because I had craving for sweet and savory
I would also like to say that Nutella is extremely popular and very tasty, however the ingredients are extremely unhealthy. Aside from that, Palm Oil is number one cause of deforestation and dairy is responsible for cruelty to animals. If you would like more information about this topic, you can read these articles: Palm Oil 10 Dairy Facts .
On the more positive note, is that I made super yummy, much healthier and cruelty free version of Nutella. These ingredients are actually good for you if you eat it in moderation, just like my other desserts. Even though price wise it may not be so cheap as Nutella, but I promise you it is worth it. Your body, the planet and the animals will thank you.

Thank you, just make sure you go for the healthier choice ๐
My goodness Lena, this looks so beautiful. Your presentations are so professional, really inviting and healthy too! I bet your little rascals love this one :) (btw I emailed the FAVM info for this week to you...wasn't sure if I was supposed to or not? Hope it was the right thing to do! :) ) Wonderful recipe, I'll need to make this one for my kids when they visit.
I just replied to your email, my Dear ๐
Thank you so much for stopping by, I always appreciate your delightful comments ๐๐๐
Yep, Iโd be all over that. Love me some hazelnuts. Would you believe Iโve never actually tasted the store bought Nutellaโฆ haha. I guess thatโs good for me because I fully appreciate the taste of homemade, yummy ingredient Nutella. Great recipe @lenasveganliving.
Oh yes my Dear Puraidaville, it's better that you did not, because It is addictive, although, too sweet for me. I prefer homemade much better I you will love it too. Thank you so much Sweetie ๐ฅ๐๐
Homemade anything is better in my book. I have a feeling all of your creations are addictive though :)
Thank you so much Sweetie ๐
Oh my, that looks good! I'm going to have to keep a better eye on you!! I haven't had Nutella for so long, since we stopped eating so much crap.
