Recipe: Persimmon Vanilla Chia Porridge

27 November, 2020 by Expat Living 2 Min Read

https://expatliving.hk/breakfast-recipe-persimmon-vanilla-chia-porridge-nuzest/

Charissa Areington is a Hong Kong-based health and fitness nutritional coach who brings us a delicious recipe each week. The recipes are based on Nuzest, a premium supplement designed to provide the body with the balance of vitamins and minerals it needs. This month, we’re concentrating on breakfast. It may be the most important meal of the day, but it can also be simple and nutritious, helping boost our energy levels and brain alertness while avoiding those on-the-go coffee-and-croissant mornings! This Persimmon Vanilla Chai Porridge recipe is one example.

A word from Charissa

Chia seeds are such a great way for you to kickstart your morning. Not only are they considered to be a powerhouse of nutrients, but they’re high in fibre, low in carbohydrates and contain a good amount of omega-3 fatty acids. This is a delicious healthy oatmeal alternative with a subtle vanilla persimmon flavour, along with added plant-based proteins.
