🌱 Why is it nourishing?
The slow-release carbohydrates of oats can help you feel full for longer on busy, sleepless days. Walnuts and tahini offer healthy fats and minerals, while banana rounds out the bowl with its natural sweetness and potassium. Strained yogurt adds protein, and chia seeds bring fiber and texture. Oats and tahini are filling, practical foods traditionally favored at the tables of breastfeeding mothers.
Maiyko's note
At Maiyko we believe a mother needs practical, filling and balanced meals during breastfeeding; you can prepare this bowl the night before and keep it in the fridge, then enjoy it as a ready option in the morning or as a snack. If you like, you can swap the walnuts for almonds or add a few slices of seasonal fruit on the side.
