I’ve been making this recipe for the last week and a half and I love it. It feels so good to eat a bunch of fresh fruit in the morning and the almonds, almond butter, and seeds give you some protein and healthy fats, making it satisfying. It tastes sorta like cereal or granola to me with the milk and all, I don’t know if anyone else will think that, but oh well, I love it! I hope you and your family enjoy this recipe very much!

With love from my kitchen to yours,

Kayley

Notes:

• Nutrition is based on the products I use. I provide a nutrition table so that you can quickly check to see if your food products match or so that you can easily calculate the nutrition for any changes you want to make to the recipe. I think this helps if you have very specific diet goals and/or fitness and/or health goals. I also wanted you to be able to see exactly where I get the numbers for my nutrition facts so that you can see that they are reliable and learn more about macro breakdowns of food.
• Why to grind flaxseeds fresh: Flaxseed meal is much easier to digest and absorb than whole flaxseeds. Whole flaxseeds often pass through your GI track without being absorbed and come out in your feces. Therefore you absorb far more nutrients from flaxseed meal. Once you grind up flaxseeds they oxidize very quickly. Oxidation creates free radicals (unstable chemical structures) which cause damage in the body and raise ones risk for cardio vascular disease, heart attacks, strokes, high blood pressure, and other health problems. By grinding flaxseeds fresh you avoid oxidation and are able to absorb more nutrients.
