Notes
Serve with berries, over SCD yogurt, coconut milk yogurt or with homemade nut milk. If nut-free, use a seed mixture such as pumpkin, sunflower and sesame. You can soak the nuts and seeds for 8 hours or overnight before blending if your belly is bothered by raw nuts/seeds. You can use any nuts/seeds and oil you have on hand. For a heart healthy boost, use Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
