Hannah Snow turns to dairy-free foods to maintain her immune system robust and her body energised when the flu and cold seasons arrive.
Hannah says, “Dairy can occasionally cause mucus generation and inflammation.” “Changing to dairy-free choices has made me feel lighter and more strong in the winter.”
Made with almond milk, turmeric, ginger, and a little of honey, Hannah’s preferred medicine is her Golden Turmeric Latte. She explains, “This drink is soothing, warming, and loaded with anti-inflammatory ingredients.” “My go-to when I sense a cold developing is this.”
Hannah particularly enjoys her Roasted Sweet Potato and Quinoa Salad for lunch. While quinoa supplies protein and vital amino acids, sweet potatoes are high in vitamin A, which boosts immune system activity. Using a dairy-free, creamy and nutrient-dense tahini sauce, she tosses the salad.
Another must for cold-weather is Hannah’s Vegan Cream of Mushroom Soup. She says, “I keep it dairy-free using coconut milk rather than cream.” Excellent sources of beta-glucans with immune-boosting effects are mushrooms.
Hannah assures me that staying healthy throughout cold and flu season is not difficult. “You will feel your best and enjoy great meals with these easy, dairy-free dishes.”
