This Popped Amaranth Honey Dew Cucumber Smoothie Bowl is absolutely delightful. Its refreshing and an easy fix for your mornings.
This is a sponsored post but the review and opinion is all mine. I have personally used this product and totally loved it.
When I am short of time and want something quick to eat I always look forward to smoothie bowls. Completely nutritious, hydrating and perfect on the go meal.
At this moment when I was in a rush, I got a wonderful surprise from 5am provision with a big package of Popped Amaranth waiting at my door step. Aha! That’s it. I quickly whipped up my breakfast was immediately in my mind.
After that, I practically blended this recipe and enjoyed devouring every bite of it.
Amaranth is a complete protein rich grain with many health benefits. Along with being gluten free it is high in iron and minerals. Also, it is low in carbohydrate and importantly it is easily digestible. I got it in a readily popped form which tastes even better. Also, it is so versatile and moreover I love its crunchy texture.
5 am is a company which is inspired by this brave lady, Elvira Juschin, who fought her battle with cancer. Amaranth oil helped her immensely to improve her span of life and from her experience, 5 am provision is trying to reach to as many people with variety of Amaranth products. This is one of which is Popped Amaranth, who really needs amaranth in some form to improve their lives. I am so glad to be associated with this company who believes in a great cause and is so inspiring.
