Mixed Berry & Tahini Chia Pudding Print 0 LikeDislike By Dr. Tara Weir It’s no secret that I am a huge fan of chia pudding. And I absolutely love this low-carb berry and tahini combo. Not only does it taste amazing, but it’s packed with antioxidants, fibre, healthy fats, and protein, too! Mixed Berry & Tahini Chia Pudding is suitable for gluten-free, nut-free, and paleo diets.Tahini is made from sesame seeds. It’s loaded with vitamins and minerals including calcium, magnesium, copper, zinc and iron. Tahini is easy to digest; a great source of protein and healthy fat; and rich in anticancer, heart-healthy plant lignans as well as methionine, which supports liver detoxification.Chia seeds have a mild nutty taste and are rich in fibre, minerals, plant protein, antioxidants, and healthy fats. In fact, each 2 tablespoon serving of chia seeds contains approximately 4 grams of protein and 12 grams of carbohydrate, of which 11 grams are actually fibre. I happen to like the texture of chia pudding, but for those of you who aren’t chia fans, this recipe works well blended, too!

Roast Salmon SaladBy Rebecca SlaterWhen I'm having an IBS flare, I don't normally like to eat raw vegetables as they can be difficult to digest when your gut is already inflamed. So, I do like the French do - I lightly sautee my veggies until they begin to soften and then toss in the ...
