Do you like desserts? If, yes then you have to try this delicious and simple chia seed pudding 😍 Make this the night before for a decadent breakfast or mid-day snack. Or prep it in the morning for a hands-off, simple dessert 🤩 It last for a couple of days in the fridge – if you can resist sneaking spoonfuls that long 🤣 ⭐ Chocolate Chia Seeds Pudding ⭐ Ingredients: 1/4 cup cacao powder or unsweetened cocoa powder 1 Tbsp maple syrup 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (optional) 1 pinch sea salt 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional) 1 1/2 cups plant based milk like almond (or light coconut milk for creamier texture!) 3 Tbsp chia seeds Method: To a small mixing bowl add cacao powder, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, salt, and vanilla and whisk to combine. Then add a little dairy-free milk at a time and whisk until a paste forms. Then add remaining dairy-free milk and whisk until smooth. Add chia seeds and whisk once more to combine. Then cover and refrigerate overnight, or at least 3-5 hours (until it's achieved a pudding-like consistency). Leftovers keep covered in the fridge for 3 days, though best when fresh. Serve chilled with desired toppings, such as fruit, granola, or coconut whipped cream. #snack #healthyfood #breakfast #healthy #vegan #dairyfree #plantbased #healthybreakfast #chiapudding #berries #wholefoods #motivation #fit #fitfood #food #foodie #foodlover #hungry #rightchoices #quickbreakfast #weightlossnutritionist #nutrition #autoimmune #healthysnack (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxuYs1kgx6B/?igshid=4bga6en2rtpw

Food for a happy GUT 🙏 ⭐ Sauerkraut is probably the most well-known lacto-fermented vegetable. It's very tasty and is one of the foods that your gut loves the most 💚 Sauerkraut contains vitamin C, vitamin A and K. It also boost your immunity and energy levels with iron! ⭐ Broccoli is a rich source of multiple vitamins, minerals and fiber. Especially in vitamin C, vitamin K, antioxidants and folate (B9). Fiber and antioxidants — both of which may support healthy bowel function and digestive health. ⭐ Since buckwheat is high in magnesium and fiber, it provides many benefits to both your digestive health and overall wellbeing. Despite its name, buckwheat is not related to wheat, and is therefore gluten-free. The groats can be used in much the same way as rice. They are the main ingredient in many traditional European and Asian dishes. #lunch #veganlunch #healthylunch #healthyfood #lovefood #foodie #plantbased #hungry #fitfood #fit #motivation #energy #wellbeing #veganfoodie #glutenfree #dairyfree #lowcarb #lowglycemic #whatnutritionistseat #balancedmeal #dainora_nutritional_therapist (at Grays Thurrock, Thurrock, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu8iI7eAzE0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5a3svg1c390t

🌼 Blueberry and Almond Muffins This delicious muffin recipe is super simple and not only low FODMAP, but also egg and dairy free, so is suitable for vegetarians and vegans. 👌 🏵️ Ingredients: 1 Tbsp chia seeds soaked in 3 tbsp boiling water 2 cups gluten free plain flour (containing a mixture of rice, potato and tapioca flours) 1/2 cup almond meal, plus a little extra to sprinkle on top of muffins 1 tsp baking powder 1/4 cup caster sugar 1 tsp vanilla extract 2/3 cup /150ml vegetable oil 200ml almond milk 3/4 cup / 150g blueberries (fresh or frozen) 🏵️ Method: 1. Preheat oven to 180°C and line a 12hole muffin pan with paper cases. 2. In a small bowl, add boiling water to chia seeds and stir. Set aside to swell for 10-15 minutes, or until a thick gel form. 3. In a large mixing bowl, add flour, almond meal, baking powder and caster sugar. 4. Add vanilla extract, vegetable oil, almond milk and soaked chia seeds. 5. Stir until just combined, adding a little extra almond milk if mixture becomes too thick. 6. Finally, carefully fold blueberries through mixture. 7. Divide mixture equally between 12 muffin cases (fill each case to 2/3 full) and sprinkle tops with extra almond meal. 8. Bake muffins in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until lightly brown and cooked through. 🏵️ Tips: For a nut free version, replace almond meal with oat bran and substitute almond milk for regular milk (lactose free if required) or soy protein milk (to keep the recipe vegan). Store muffins in an air tight container or freeze for later. As a special treat, add 1/3 cup chocolate of your choice to the muffin mixture at step 3. #breakfast #nutritionist #plantbased #fitfood #foodie #londonnutritionist #onlinenutritionist #mynutrition #nutritionaltherapyessex #weightlossnutritionist #healthylifestyle #healthybreakfast #healthy #healthyfood #healthysnack #lowfodmapfood #lowfodmap #lowfodmapsnack (at Grays Thurrock, Thurrock, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu6LE-wAcPr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hwrvwj0q514

Delicious post-workout lunch 👌 Yes, finally I done Pilates and I am proud of myself 😃 Exercise sounds great and all, but when it comes to actually having to do it, that's another story. I completely understand how hard is to motivate ourselves and start doing it. But here you go, my 3 tips how to get moving when you are lazy as me most of the times 😃 1. Walk for at least 20 minutes a day. It's no longer the bleak mid-winter, which means no excuses to get public transport literally everywhere you go. Use the legs you were given and get moving; even just 20 minutes a day will be an improvement for your health.For example, If you take the bus or subway, get off one or two srops early and walk the rest of the way.  2. Run for just one song. Instead of being too ambitious and then feeling awful when it doesn't all come together, tell yourself to run just the length of one song. Make it a good one and you won't even notice when the 3.5 minutes are over. 3. Don't use elevators or escalators; instead, take the stairs. Start with one such substitution a day, and build up slowly. Careful, though - walking down stairs can be hard on your knees. Walk up, but ride down. Begin with small changes and build up eventually 👌⭐ #nutrition #lunch #healthylunch #healthyfood #lovefood #foodie #fitfood #fit #motivation #veganfoodie #glutenfree #dairyfree #lowcarb #lowglycemic #whatnutritionistseat #balancedmeal #nutrition #nutritiontips #nutritionistlondon #autoimmune #dainora_nutritional_therapist (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/ButSkx8Aq4w/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1e8xv5q3situe

Homemade granola 🤩 ⭐ Ingredients: 50 g blanched almonds 50 g pecan nuts 50 g unsalted pistachios , (shelled) 50 g dried apricots 50 g pumpkin seeds 50 g sunflower seeds 1 tablespoon sesame seeds 1 tablespoon flaxseeds 250 g porridge oats 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 tablespoon desiccated coconut 50 g sultanas 50 g sour cherries 6 tablespoons maple syrup 1 orange ⭐ Method: Preheat the oven to 160ºC/325ºF/gas 3. Roughly chop the nuts and apricots, then place into a large bowl. Add the remaining dry ingredients and mix together. Drizzle over the maple syrup and finely grate over the orange zest, then stir well to coat everything. Spread out over a large baking tray in an even layer – split it between two, if it’s easier. Pop into the hot oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until turning golden, stirring every 10 minutes or so to stop it from catching. Bear in mind that the granola will harden up and go crunchy as it cools, so don’t be tempted to cook it for too long. Leave to cool completely, then tip into airtight storage jars and use as and when you need it – it will keep quite happily for up to 4 weeks. ⭐ Tips: Feel free to swap in whichever nuts, seeds and dried fruit you like. #breakfast #healthy #vegan #dairyfree #plantbased #healthybreakfast #wholefoods #motivation #fit #fitfood #food #foodie #foodlover #enjoying #hungry #rightchoices #quickbreakfast #weightlossnutritionist #nutrition #healthylifestyle #healthylunch #healthyfood #health #granola #foodlover (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/BurUhh1lPhX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qy6hiucb6rbu
