Nourishment Notes

Pineapple

Pineapple is high in vitamin C which helps with immune function. It also contains the digestive enzyme, bromelain, which may help to ease digestion and reduce stomach discomfort.

Strawberries

Strawberries are a great source of antioxidants and may help protect the heart against heart disease.

Chia Seeds

Chia seeds may serve as a “nutritional booster” in this recipe. Chia seeds are loaded with high-quality protein, fiber, and antioxidants.
