Carob Powder is the New Chocolate.
Okay, hear me out! Have you ever heard of carob powder? This stuff is amazing and you need to grab some the next time you're at the grocery store .Carob powder is made from the pulp of the carob tree's pod. It's ground up into a fine powder that looks and tastes a lot like chocolate.
I first started using carob powder about 10 years ago when I was looking for a substitute for chocolate. I can't handle caffeine at all - even the smell of coffee makes me jittery. Carob powder saved my chocolate cravings and I've been using it ever since.
If you're looking for a healthy alternative to chocolate, then carob powder is the way to go. It's naturally sweet and is packed with nutrients like fiber, calcium, and iron. Here's a recipe for a delicious carob powder smoothie: that taste just as beautiful as it looks.
