Gluten-Free Yeast-Free Quick Bread
Beautiful and delicious Coconut Cacao Chia Pudding, this is a little bowl full of heaven! Not only tastes good but DOES good!
Raspberries, blueberries, cacao, chia seeds and maple syrup contain a plethora of plant phytonutrients with health-promoting properties, including the ability to neutralize cell damaging free radical molecules, the unstable compounds that form from factors like stress, pollution and an unhealthy diet.
- Berries are good sources of vitamin C, vitamin K, manganese, copper & fiber.
- Chia seeds are rich in vitamins and minerals, and are especially high in Omega-3 fatty acids. Their high fiber content can help feed beneficial gut microbes, reduce inflammation and support heart health.
- Coconut milk is a heart-healthy nut milk containing almost 50% medium chain fatty acids identified as antibacterial, antiviral and cardio supportive. MCTs are easily absorbed without needing to be processed through your digestive tract, providing quick energy!
