Guilt-Free Cream of Asparagus Soup image

I love this recipe because it is so easy to make and filling. If doing a low-carb diet you can eliminate the potato. I have also substituted the asparagus with broccoli and/or spinach.

1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
1 clove garlic, crushed
¼ cup dry white wine

THE REAL NO-GUILT CHOCOLATE PUDDING



The REAL No-Guilt Chocolate Pudding image

In my journey to applying the 90/10 (okay 80/20) rule to my food ethic - that is, 90 percent good for you and 10 percent ... not so much - I'm always on a quest to find dessert holy grails. If I'm going to indulge in dessert, it better be good. Medjool dates, by themselves, no matter how exponentially sweet, are not going to cut it when I want something velvety, chocolatey and rich.
