This recipe is perfect for those cold winter evenings when the family needs something to warm them up from the inside out!
Nuts are an excellent source of zinc and copper which are known for helping to support your immune system, so adding a handful of nuts or mixing a 100% natural nut spread through your winter dishes can really help your body ward off winter nasties.
To help further boost your immune system, leading dietitian Susie Burrell also recommends eating a variety of foods such as such as ginger, garlic, broccoli, oranges, berries, nuts, and yoghurt that contains live cultures.
Enjoy!
