Healthy Holiday Recipes

Posted on December 22, 2015 by Therapists in Nutrition

Here are are a couple of healthy holiday recipes to enjoy.

Gingerbread Recipe – Gluten and Lactose Free

Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 50 minutes

Ingredients:

– 250 gr wheat flour or rye or any other
– 300 gr honey, the best if chestnut
– 50 gr almond powder
– 10 cl of milk
– 1 egg
– 11gr baking powder
– 20gr butter for the mold or use vegetable oil if you want it lactose free
– 40gr candied orange peel
– 1 table spoon of gingerbread powder  OR if you do not have gingerbread powder
– 1 teaspoon ginger powder
– 1 teaspoon anise powder
– 1 powdered cinnamon

Ginger breadPreparation:

Put the milk and honey in a saucepan.

Heat over low heat, just to melt the honey. Remove from heat before boiling and allow to cool and infuse. Place in a bowl, flour, baking soda, almond powder and spices. Mix well. Then add the oranges.

Add milk to spiced honey slowly once in the center, everything will dissolve resulting in no more lumps!

Preheat oven to 180 ° C. Grease mold with butter or oil. Add dough until it reaches a little over half of the mold.

Bake for 50 minutes. Every oven is different, so adjust and check the heart of the cake with a knife. It must be well-done.

Turn the mold over molding straight from the oven directly on cellophane (good quality otherwise it may melt) !
And pack warm so that it keeps all the moisture it contains. Be careful of your fingers, because it is easy to burn! Let the cake get cool in its film. It can be eaten the next day, however it lasts a couple of days.

Lemon and its Benefits

A new study has shown for the first time how limonoids, natural compounds present in lemons and other citrus fruit, impede both ER+ and ER- breast cancer cell growth. This sheds new light on the importance of citrus fruit for breast cancer prevention and supports past studies which showed fruit consumption may lower breast cancer risk.

How To Use Lemons

lemons

All kinds of people are saying that the entire lemon should be used with nothing wasted. Not only for the obvious health benefits but also for the amazing taste!

Simple, take an ORGANIC lemon, wash it, and then put it in the freezer. Once it is frozen you get whatever is necessary to grate or shred the whole lemon without even peeling it first.

Then sprinkle it on your salad, ice cream, soup, cereals, noodles, spaghetti sauce, or whatever. No holds barred. What you will experience is that whatever you sprinkle it on will take on a taste you may never have experienced before.

Properties of Lemons

Because the lemon peel contains 5 to 10 times more vitamins than the lemon juice itself and the peel is the part that is usually wasted. Not only that, but the peel helps to get rid of toxins in the body.

We hope you try and enjoy these holiday recipes, and wish you a happy, healthy and prosperious year ahead.
