Banana and Chia Bowl: grain-free cereal

0

This bowl is super nutritious and smells amazing. It contains 12 g fibers, that sweep the intestines and help for the regular bowel movement (i.e. regular bathroom visits). This recipe is great if you follow HFLC meal plan.

Ingredients:

15 g coconut flakes
150 ml cashew milk or other milk (check how to prepare homemade nut milk)
15 g peeled hemp seeds
15 g chia seeds
1 small banana about 110 g
Optional: cinnamon, vanilla, cocoa
Optional for better digestion: a pinch of turmeric and a pinch of black pepper. Black pepper activates the useful features of the turmeric. For even better digestion, add a pinch of grated ginger.

Directions

Pour the cashew milk over the coconut flakes and chia seeds. If you want a beautiful bowl (for children 🙂 arrange it as on my picture, because it’s super important for children to see pretty food.

It’s more delicious if the banana is mashed with a fork and blended well with the milk. That way the cereal is sweeter.

Add the hemp seeds and cinnamon, cocoa, vanilla. I advice you to prepare the bowl and let it sit for 15-30 minutes before having it or overnight in the fridge. If it’s going to sit in the fridge, I add the banana right before eating. The hemp seed doesn’t need to soak, so the bowl can just sit in the fridge.
