Yum, yum, yum. I love anything coconutty & with fresh mango it’s almost ALWAYS a winner. I’ve developed this recipe for Natural Raw C which is one of my favourite Coconut Waters :)
Have you ever tried Tapioca? It’s made from the root of the cassava plant and it has a unique compositions of carbs, vitamins, mineral, and organic compounds. It’s a rich source of fiber, the good cholesterol and protein. Because of the high dietary fiber it contains this little seed is great for your digestive health.
However, enjoy this dessert in smaller quantities if you’re trying to lose weight because of the high carb level. Doesn’t mean it can’t be a weekly treat :) Enjoy!
