If you’re looking for a much healthier and more nutritious version of chocolate mousse, you’ve got to try this cauliflower chocolate mousse. There’s more than a full serving of vegetables in each cup, it’s free from refined sugar, and also super allergy-friendly (no dairy, eggs, soy, or gluten). 

When it comes to recipe development, one of my biggest passions is creating delicious foods that include as many vegetables and nutrient-dense foods as possible. Cauliflower is one of those miraculous vegetables that works incredibly well in both sweet and savory dishes. I often use it in smoothies frozen (either raw or steamed) for a thick and creamy texture. It also works like magic in baked goods such as brownies. So about time I experimented with using it in my favorite dessert, chocolate mousse.

All you have to do is steam the cauliflower over a pot of boiling water for about 10 minutes until soft. Then add it to a blender with the remaining ingredients until smooth and creamy. That’s it! So easy and there’s no way anyone can ever tell there are vegetables hidden in your chocolate mousse! If you have picky eaters at home, this is a great way to get them to eat more veggies without even realizing it!

To make the mousse even more nutritious, I subbed some of the cacao powder with a scoop of Detox Organics* chocolate superfood powder. This amazing blend contains 25 different detoxifying and alkalizing ingredients like dandelion, broccoli leaf, kale, spirulina, chlorella, wheatgrass, ginger, and turmeric, but still tastes like chocolate! These plants and superfoods help the body detoxify naturally, provide digestive support, and relieve bloating and constipation.
