Hello, dear foodies & friends!
Today I would like to share one of my sacred staple food recipes, which I modified from one of my Mom's ideas. I seem to make this almost every week, yet it usually disappears before I get around to take a picture. But here it is today - freshly made with pear and blueberries...
It's a very simple and basic recipe, perfect for using leftover (or frozen) fruit, nuts and some cooked millet, which is by far, my favourite of the ancient grains.
Millet is not only alkalising to the body but is also considered a 'smart carb' with lots of fiber and low simple sugars which make it a low GI food.
For those amongst you who are gluten-free: Yes, you can have as much of this as you like and additionally enjoy the high antioxidant activity, a 15% protein content, loads of Vitamin B3 and Magnesium. It also contains a prebiotic which feeds the microflora in your inner ecosystem. Yes, this is one healthy little thing.
As with most of my recipes - you will need to determine whether the sweetness works for you as I like to keep things simple and work with natural sugars.
Try this as an 'almost-dessert' after a green veggie or miso soup for lunch or dinner and make a totally plant based meal out of it. Both the flax seed and millet will do wonders for your digestive track if you consume them regularly and help balance out the acidity level of your blood and organs.
