When eating a whole food plant based diet, you can still have dessert. This dessert actually has some nutritional value and is healthy. The best part is, your kids will never know it!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This recipe is for dark chocolate brownies.  These brownies are made with dates to add sweetness, as well as nutritional value. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why are dates healthy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They contain the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Fiber<\/li><li>Antioxidants<\/li><li>Calcium<\/li><li>Iron<\/li><li>Zinc<\/li><li>Potassium<\/li><li>Magnesium<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you really need any more reasons to add dates to your diet? I don&#8217;t. Plus they taste so good in many desserts. You will not miss using white sugar! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since eggs can&#8217;t be used since this is vegan and whole-food plant-based, I use &#8220;flax eggs&#8221;. You basically take one tablespoon of ground flaxseed and mix with two tablespoons of water. Let that sit for about five minutes and there you have your egg. Oh and I know, you want to know why flaxseed is healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why is flaxseed healthy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flaxseed contains the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Fiber<\/li><li>Antioxidants<\/li><li>Omega-3 <\/li><li>Protein<\/li><li>Many other vitamins and minerals<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<iframe style=\"width:120px;height:240px;\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ss&amp;ref=as_ss_li_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=buddhabowlsar-20&amp;language=en_US&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=B00DOKFLYI&amp;asins=B00DOKFLYI&amp;linkId=e0c3d0036160cb7d4fa5612558335703&amp;show_border=true&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=true\"><\/iframe><iframe style=\"width:120px;height:240px;\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ss&amp;ref=as_ss_li_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=buddhabowlsar-20&amp;language=en_US&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=B0713X7NW2&amp;asins=B0713X7NW2&amp;linkId=b83d4217377c03ac8e47159e110c211a&amp;show_border=true&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=true\"><\/iframe><iframe style=\"width:120px;height:240px;\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ss&amp;ref=as_ss_li_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=buddhabowlsar-20&amp;language=en_US&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=B07J5SWMQT&amp;asins=B07J5SWMQT&amp;linkId=09d0f613605759e4bd4890878fc1b6f2&amp;show_border=true&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=true\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p> Ok, I know you just want the recipe already!!! Keep in mind it&#8217;s best to let these cool completely before serving. They are very soft and moist. Which is why I love them. If you are looking for a dry brownie this is not the recipe for you. These are very fudge-like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This recipe makes a small 8&#215;8 baking dish. They are a thin brownie but they are very rich; so a small piece is all you might need at a time.  This recipe can easily be doubled to make a thicker brownie, just add on ten minutes to the baking and cooling time. <\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-2097\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\"
