LINSEED MEAL
Provides you with a good solid dose of fiber and minerals.
PEAS FLOUR
Don’t let the small size fool you! Peas have more to offer than you think. Peas are a really good source of protein and pea flour provides you with valuable proteins. Including BCAAs and all the essential amino acids that are important building blocks of your body. Your body by itself cannot produce amino acids, therefore, it is important and necessary that you include them in your diet.
BCAAs are a key component of the essential amino acids due to the fact that they quickly absorb into the muscles by passing the need to activate the liver all thanks to their branch-chain formation. Think instant power for your muscles.
LENTIL FLOUR
Just like peas, lentils belong to the legume plant family and should not be underestimated. The goal is to eat a balanced diet and feel good in the long term. Right? In order to do that, we recommend you include a high proportion of legumes in your diet. Lentil flour provides you with an extra portion of protein, fiber and minerals. Lentils are a real power punch nutrient packet.
PUMPKIN SEED FLOUR
Don’t be fooled by the hidden gem of pumpkin. Hint. it’s in the pulp. Though small, pumpkin seeds can provide you with lots of protein and a good dose of iron.
How do you correctly make and bake pizza dough?
Fridge is empty and no supermarket nearby? No problem.
All you need is water. Stir the mix with lukewarm water. Knead it until the dough has an even consistency. Let the dough sit for 10 minutes. Roll out the pizza dough and bake for 15 to 20 minutes without toppings. Then top up the pizza with your favourite toppings according to your taste and bake it again for 10 to 15 minutes. (Times vary slightly pending on the strength of your oven).
