Oat and Buckwheat Muesli with Pears and Grapes (Dairy-Free)

4 servings


Eating a bowl of this super-nutritious, skin-soothing muesli for breakfast is a superb way to start a day off right. The anti-oxidants in the red grapes featured in this muesli stimulate collagen synthesis and help improve the skin's texture. A must-try recipe for eczema sufferers!

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup puffed buckwheat
1/2 cup dried apples, chopped
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 cup organic pears, diced
1 cup red grapes, halved
3 tbsp brown sugar
Rice milk to serve

Directions

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C, gas 3). Spread oats evenly onto a non-stick baking tray and toast in preheated oven for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Watch oats very closely when toasting as they can burn easily. Remove from oven and let cool. Pour into a large ceramic or glass bowl and add water. Let soak in a refrigerator overnight. Add puffed buckwheat, dried apples, cinnamon, and brown sugar to soaked oats. Stir well. Divide mixture into serving bowls and top with pears and grapes. Serve with rice milk.

Raspberry Banana Smoothie

2 servings


This smoothie is literally bursting with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory phytochemicals, including quercetin, one of the best photochemicals for people with eczema. What's more, both the raspberries and the ground flaxseed add anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids to this delectable smoothie.

Ingredients

1 cup fresh raspberries
1 ripe banana, sliced and frozen
1 cup rice milk
1 Tbsp flaxseed, freshly ground

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor and process until smooth. Garnish as desired. Serve immediately.

Antioxidant-Rich Asparagus with Quinoa Noodles

Not only is this asparagus dish downright delicious, it also makes an excellent anti-eczema meal as it is loaded with antioxidants.

1 tbsp olive oil
3 tsp fresh ginger, minced

1 tbsp soy sauce

Chicken and Apple Salad

Serves 4


This anti-eczema recipe pairs meaty chicken with succulent grapes and crunchy apples to create a wonderful culinary sensation.

3 tbsp red onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup organic apples, diced
6 tbsp extra light mayonnaise
