4 Weeks of Functional Foods Digest #1


Happy November! This short week was all about two amazing foods that are the superstar ingredients of my favorite fiberlicious pudding. This Pumpkin Chia Seed Pudding is a great addition to breakfast and is an excellent healthy dessert. The fiber found in chia seeds and pumpkin feed good gut bacteria and keeps things moving along in your digestive tract. Cheers!
