Overnight seedy breakfast pots
A little breakfast pot packed with healthy seeds. Seeds are a great addition to our diet as menopause women. These little pots have worked very well for me as a breakfast option. They would work well before any workout and as a post-workout refuel. If you use the 120g of Greek yoghurt specified then you’ll be hitting 28g of protein per pot.

To serve add a dollop of yoghurt and some berries.
the health boost tip
Incorporating seeds into your diet is a great way to include fibre and essential fatty acids. They also contain many important vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. In particular the lignans in some seeds can help to lower cholesterol.
