Let’s talk about nutrition. Blueberries are amazing for their antioxidants. Some consider them a superfood. 4g fiber in a cup, and an excellent source of Vitamin K and manganese. Manganese is a trace mineral that flies under the radar, it’s not talked about too much. But, manganese is important. It helps with the metabolism of nutrients and your brain/nervous system need it.

Bananas. Potassium comes to mind, right? But, they’re also good for manganese as well as Vitamin B6 and fiber.

Cashews are great for plant based protein. They also are good for your eyes. Carrots typically take that spot, but did you know they have the same antioxidants? Lutein and zeaxanthin protect the eyes too against blindness.

Getting back to the amazing recipe… Can you use cinnamon? Your call. Can you add honey? Up to you! Versatility and flexibility are my favorite things about these recipes. Enjoy!
