This months recipe is a Relaxing Dairy Free Lavender Cheesecake
This is an amazing alternative for a dairy fuelled cheesecake – our guts are not designed to process the proteins in dairy so as a rule it’s best to avoid it as much as possible as over time it can cause intestinal stress and ultimately damage your gut function. That said, who doesn’t love a good cheesecake!? We’ve added dried lavender to this recipe, widely known for its soothing and calming properties, Lavender isn’t just a beautiful scent, that helps us relax, it also sooths when ingested too! This recipe is also loaded with nuts which are not only high in fibre but also is anti-oxidants.
