How To Make Yogurt Using Almond Milk? — Homemade Yogurt Using Almond Milk

Health Benefits of Almond Milk Yogurt

Now let’s discuss the benefits. Compared to dairy yogurt, almond milk yogurt is a fantastic substitute, especially if you’re a vegetarian or have a lactose intolerance. This is why it’s so beneficial to you:

1. Nutrient-Rich: Almond milk contains a lot of vitamins and minerals, including calcium, magnesium, and vitamin E. You genuinely obtain these supplements at the point where you turn it into yogurt, and they are excellent for your bones, skin, and overall health.

2. Low Calorie: Compared to regular yogurt, almond milk yogurt often has fewer calories. If you’re attempting to lose weight, this can be a pleasant way to enjoy yogurt without consuming more calories.

3. Probiotics: Almond milk yogurt can be a good source of beneficial bacteria if you use a probiotic starter culture. These probiotics help maintain a healthy and balanced stomach-related structure.

4. Cardiovascular Health: Almond milk contains heart-healthy lipids. Consuming almond milk yogurt on a regular basis can strengthen a heart-healthy diet.

The Power of Protein-Rich Superfoods

Incorporating protein-rich superfoods into your diet is a smart way to supercharge your fitness journey. Superfoods like chia seeds, quinoa, and spirulina aren't just trendy; they're nutrient powerhouses packed with protein, fiber, and essential vitamins. These foods not only support muscle growth and recovery but also enhance your overall well-being. For example, adding a sprinkle of chia seeds to your yogurt or blending some spirulina into your smoothie gives you an extra protein boost without much effort. Plus, these superfoods offer a mix of antioxidants and healthy fats, which can help reduce inflammation and keep your body functioning at its best.

Mixing these superfoods into your meals can be a fun and delicious way to meet your protein needs while enjoying a variety of flavors and textures. Whether you're making a quinoa salad for lunch or a chia seed pudding for a snack, you're not just fueling your body—you’re nourishing it with top-tier nutrients. So, next time you plan your meals, think about how you can incorporate these protein-packed superfoods to elevate both your diet and your fitness results.

My Love: Vegan Food

[suzieb-fit]

Fruit.

Loads of fruit.

Vitamins, minerals, fibre, antioxidants, "solid hydration" (just made that up, lol).

That's just for starters.

Too much "sugar"? Sheesh. Behave yourselves.....

I'm type one diabetic and I eat plenty of fruit every day.

A great way to slow down the absorption of the HEALTHY type of "sugar" (natural fructose as opposed to the rubbish kind), eat your fruit with full fat natural or greek yoghurt. Throw in a few raw, unroasted nuts. The fat and protein balances it all out.

This is my newly replenished fresh fruit bowl. I also have different berries and grapes in the fridge.

Get your fruit in!

Merenda mattina: pera 🍐

Pranzo: 237g pollo, insalata, mezzo pomodoro, carote e zucchine grattugiate

Condimento: sale e aceto balsamico

Verso le 10,30 ho mangiato la pera, non ho fatto la colazione, only coffee e in palestra, altrimenti non riesco a correre con cibo sullo stomaco, sono felicissima che sono cosi carica di energie e ho corso per mezz'ora bruciando 300 kcal. Ho fatto anche la scheda per tonificare la muscolatura, nell'ultimo periodo ero malnutrita e non riuscivo neanche più a fare sforzi, mangiavo e vomitavo tutto di continuo, certo ero dimagrita ma mi ha portata a svenire e neanche avevo raggiunto tutti i miei obbiettivi di peso. Voglio stare bene, è bello stare svegli ed energici, punto tutto sulla palestra, l'allenatrice non vorrebbe facessi cardio solo pesi, ma cardio per me è fondamentale perché comunque punto a tornare come prima, dimagrire facendo sport, mangiando sano e per forza devo stare attenta alle calorie. A pranzo avevo programmato di fare la pasta, ma poi sono andata a fare la spesa e ho preso il pollo al forno. Sono un po' spaventata per le calorie scrive internet, l'ho spelato tutto dandone un po' al gatto, ho pesato 237g di pollo pulito, l'ho messo nell'insalata con mezzo pomodoro, zucchine e carote grattugiate condito con sale e aceto balsamico. Un po' di sensi di colpa nonostante ho bruciato in palestra e anche domani voglio andare. L'importante è che ho le energie per fare ginnastica perché non mi piace stare tanto a riposo, essere sbandata, tipo vomitare in continuazione ero troppo distrutta.. mi piace essere attiva. Quindi devo dare energie al mio corpo, come una macchina con la benzina. Evito di pesarmi perché mi manda a male, secondo i miei calcoli con quello che mangio e palestra dovrei dimagrire come facevo mesi fa. Il piatto insalatona con pollo lo considero un piatto unico nel piano nutrizionale.

I discovered a new product hiding on the Whole Foods sweetener shelves; Meet Fiji Ginger Syrup by The Ginger People. I figured since it's winter time when colds and flus are at their peak season, what better way to keep warm and keep colds at bay than with a ginger based hot beverage?

The ingredients are extremely simple with Organic Cane Sugar and Organic Ginger. The best part? It does not require refrigeration. I like how simple it is to use. You just open and pour for all the quality goodness of ginger with a touch of sweetness. No need to peel and chop an actual root that can shrivel up if you don't get around to using it in time.

They recommend pouring this over pancakes, waffles, ice creams, as well as adding it to cocktails and fruit.

Not only that but the little ginger character on the front has a name and it's Flapjack Knobs. No, really, that's his name.

If you may recall, the ginger we consume in juices and recipes is a wonderfully warming rhizome widely used for its medicinal properties like aiding in digestion or reducing inflammation. It has even been studied for its effectiveness in treating cancer.

I poured some of this in my morning mug of tea and it was a gentle flavor shot of warm, sweet gingery goodness. I started small and gradually increased the amount I added to my mug as I realized the flavor wasn't intense at all. I mean, the product is pretty much just ginger dissolved in sugar; it's perfect for tea!

Oh, you know what I'm going to try next? I'm going to caramelize some fruit by grilling it- maybe some pineapple, it grills well. And then I'm going to give this gorgeous syrup a drizzle over it and see how that tastes. Now if that isn't a cold busting remedy that is also delicious, I don't know what is. It's a combination that will certainly help give your immune system a kick in the pants, that's for sure.

This would've been good over the grilled peaches I posted a while back too. I'll post each incarnation of recipe I can think of to utilize this simple syrup.

Stay warm, friends.
