Libido boosting

Smoothie bowl

  • 1 pear (promotes gut health, is anti inflammatory & tastes delicious!)

  • Handful of frozen berries (full of antioxidants, especially when organic and even more so with wild picked ones!)

  • Handful of spinach (organic if possible)

  • A cup of dairy free milk - I love @plenishdrinks hazelnut

  • 1/2 inch of organic ginger (anti-inflammatory)

  • 1 tsp of Maca

  • 2 inch piece of cucumber (for hydration) 

Blend altogether, top with extra berries and enjoy.

Thought it was time for a yummy smoothie recipe to get you going that includes maca, a root known to increase libido and boost energy and endurance!

Protein Rich Granola

Ingredients

  • 50g buckwheat groats

  • 50g gluten free oats

  • 50g quinoa pops

  • 20g coconut flakes

  • 20g sesame seeds

  • 20g sunflower seeds

  • 20g pumpkin seeds

  • 60g hazelnuts

  • 60g pecans

  • 60g almonds

  • 2 tbsp coconut oil

  • 2 tbsp maple or date syrup

  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

  • 40g walnuts

  • 20g hemp seeds

Method

Pre-heat the oven to 160 degrees.

Combine all the dry ingredients except the walnuts and hemp seeds.

Melt the coconut oil and maple or date syrup over the hob and add in the cinnamon.

Once melted, combine with the dry ingredients.

Coat the ingredients well and spread onto a lined baking sheet and bake in the oven for 15 minutes.

Allow to cool completely and then add walnuts and hemp seeds to the mix.

Store in a glass airtight container or freeze for another time.

Many shop bought granola’s are high in sugar and oats which can put you on a blood sugar rollercoaster and disrupt your hormones for the rest of the day. This recipe is great on its own or topped onto a smoothie bowl or serve with gut nourishing stewed apples.

Chia Banana Protein Porridge

Serves 1

Ingredients:

1 tbsp white or black chia seeds

150ml unsweetened almond milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A sprinkle of ground cinnamon

1 ripe banana

25g vanilla protein powder

Handful of blueberries

Method:

1. In a bowl, stir together the chia seeds, milk, vanilla and cinnamon. Allow to sit for 15 minutes or even better, refrigerate overnight.

2. The chia seeds will expand and absorb the liquid creating a chia tapioca.

3. Mash a ripe banana in a bowl (or ideally use a blender). If you are not keen on tapioca texture add the chia seeds to the blender to make the porridge a smoother consistency.

4. Place the chia mix and banana in a non-stick saucepan and gently warm through.

5. Remove from the heat and stir in the protein powder

6. Service & sprinkle with a handful of blueberries
