APPLE AND AVOCADO BREAD RECIPE


Hi everyone! I'm Junia and I blog over at Mis Pensamientos (http://juniakk.blogspot.com) about my food inspirations in the kitchen. I love finding healthy ways to enjoy everyday eating and snacking.  I started on a personal journey to eat plant based foods just two years ago and I've never felt better.  I've experienced immense health benefits such as better digestion, more energy, radiant glow, and body cleansing. 
One thing that I dearly miss is baked goods.  I love to indulge here and there, of course! This is a bread recipe that was inspired by my love for avocados! Enjoy this yummy recipe, and please come by and check out my latest healthy food inspirations. :)
