Prep:5minCook:15min
Fig season is upon us which is great for our hormones as well as our taste buds. Figs are said to prevent the buildup of excess estrogen, which is one of the most common hormonal imbalances, but they’re also high in fiber which helps reduce inflammation in the body and maintain a healthy digestive track and rich in antioxidants. And all of this is on top of the health benefits of quinoa which is high in protein and fiber - making this an amazing ovulatory phase breakfast.
