We've just added this Versatile Creamy Soybean dip recipe to our website (see link below), which is high in protein and other essential nutrients, plus, after watching Dr Michael Greger's latest video, we discovered that soy can promote collagen synthesis, which can help increase firmness and moisture content of the skin, and help with wrinkles appearing less noticeable. 🌱

I should remember Fenugreek seeds/powder is a really healthy spice with various unique qualities that simply 'healthy eating' do not replace. Muscular health & training, #CardioVascularDisease, #diabetes, hearing, #endothelial function all sorts of benefits.
I can totally blend in the taste by mixing it up with a load of other spices, herbs, chili whatever and making a cooking mix (here is about 3 days worth) with around 5g fenugreek seeds per day. #healthy#cooking#health
