Protein truffles
It is important that we get enough protein for many reasons. Our bodies need protein to build, repair and maintain body cells (including muscle cells) and organs, to make hormones and enzymes which regulate body functions, and to make antibodies and other important components of the immune system. If you are looking for a delicious way to add more protein into your diet, try this recipe for protein truffles!

Vitamin C Green Smoothie
Yesterday, I tried a new green smoothie recipe, and as it turned out very well and was quite popular at home, I'm sharing it here today. The majority of the ingredients I used for this smoothie are high in vitamin C, so a glass or two a day can contribute to achieving your recommended daily intake of this vitamin.
Chia jam- the healthy jam alternative
Jam is nice, but usually full of sugar which isn't especially great for anyone trying to live healthier. This easy to make alternative to jam tastes great, is healthy and can be used on bread, in porridge and in several desserts.
Avocado chocolate mousse
Now I'm not saying that this is a new idea or that I invented this one; it's been around forever!
