  • Cool Down with This Easy Pineapple Lassi Recipe (Great for Digestion!)

    Pineapple Lassi

    If you’ve never heard of a lassi, it’s a drink made with yogurt, spices, and sometimes fruit or other ingredients. It’s super light, super fresh, and just plain revitalizing. Pineapples are very rich in fiber that aids in weight loss and promotes healthy tummy by flushing wastes through the gut.
    Try this healthy and delicious drink with pineapple, cardamom powder and low-fat yogurt. It is great for a quick breakfast or pre workout snack to supply you with enough energy to last for longer hours. What I LOVE about this drink is how the tart plain yogurt really adds a bright zing.
