Vegan Chocolate Superfood Pudding

Raw cacao is one of the world's healthiest foods. It has one of the highest antioxidant profiles: 15x higher than wild blueberries; 20x higher than green tea; 30x higher than red wine.  The polyphenols found in cacao help to protect your cells against oxidation and aging. It’s also the highest natural source of magnesium, iron, manganese and chromium; it’s very rich in phosphorous, zinc and copper

Goji berries are also high in antioxidants - astaxanthin and beta-carotene in particular.  When the two are combined, this results in you doubling or tripling your antioxidant absorption.  This dessert-like concoction will have you reaping all the benefits while satisfying your sweet tooth.
