One downfall of being a woman is.. well... you know. Chocolate cravings come right along 'ol Aunt Flo. But everything that I want is going to throw my 14.3 lbs lost right back onto my hips. I found on Pinterest today a recipe for black bean brownies. Sounds pretty nasty, doesn't it? There's a whole can of black beans and no flour in it. Whaaaaat?! Yeah, weird. But oh so delicious. Me and Lucas shared 3 of them. I guess I gotta run extra hard tonight.

1 Can of black beans rinsed off
3 Eggs
3 Tbsp vegetable oil (I used canola oil)
1/4 Cup cocoa powder
Pinch of salt
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 Cup sugar (I used Splenda)
Put everything in the blender and blend until smooth. Pour into a greased 8x8 pan and bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes. I put chopped walnuts and heath bars on top of mine. Only a little bit of the candy. These taste just like regular brownies, but without all of the guilt! The full recipe is on All Recipes
