With everyone making green food this time of year, I decided to hop on the train; Oh man this might just be my most favorite dessert lasagna yet. Yes, even better than my high protein chocolate lasagna recipe.

The flavors of mint and chocolate go so so well together in this recipe, I cannot! It really is just perfect!
Smooth, silky and just absolutely delicious. And the best part is that it’s healthy too – low fat, low sugar and lower calorie.

Ingredients for Healthy Mint Chocolate Dessert Lasagna:

This high protein healthy mint chocolate dessert lasagna is made with layers of healthy with sugar free base, protein puddings and a low fat whipped cream too.

The Base

• Sugar-free Mint Chocolate Oreos – I used these sugar-free sandwich cookies from Sunday’s
• Rice Krispies Cereal
• Chocolate flavor Almond Butter; I recommend Chocolate Mint Lentil Almond Butter from Broma
  Or Mint Chocolate Dream from American Dream Nut Butter (code HAYLSKITCHEN gives you a discount on these). It’s lower fat and higher protein than normal, and just amazing . ADNB has other amazing flavors that would work well here too.
• Cocoa Powder
• Sugar free Chocolate flavored Syrup; These Skinny Syrups from Jordan’s are what I recommend.

For the Mint Protein Pudding Layer 

• Non-fat Greek Yogurt
• Vanilla Protein Powder; I used Quest Nutrition Vanilla here.
• Vanilla Instant Pudding Mix: I used this sugar free and fat free one from Simply Delish. If you can’t find it, Jello is a great option too.
• Peppermint Extract
• Green Food Color
• A bit of Unsweetened Almond Milk
