Craving for a mid-day snack? Here’s a recipe to replace your junk food snack in between meals. Being mindful while snacking helps you consume foods that are not only nutritious but also helps curb your appetite and eat the right foods. We all LOVE Pesto! It’s a great dip with baked crisps or veggies and really helps with those extreme hunger pangs during the day. Add your choice of CosMix to the pesto to make it nutritious and wholesome- we recommend Strong Immunity/ Happy Gut/ Healthy Hair. Here’s a super yum recipe you can try out to snack during movie time and also store for munching on later. Did we forget to mention how fun it is to make this recipe?!
