Chocolate Banana Buckwheat Porridge
• Stir frequently to prevent sticking as buckwheat thickens quickly. • Add extra soy milk if porridge becomes too thick. • Roasted buckwheat (kasha) gives a nuttier, deeper flavor than raw groats. • Best eaten fresh but can be refrigerated up to 2 days and reheated with a splash of milk. Health Benefits: This porridge provides a balanced combination of complex carbohydrates, plant-based protein, and healthy fats to support steady energy and satiety. Buckwheat is naturally gluten-free and rich in fiber and minerals like magnesium and iron, which support metabolic and cardiovascular health. Banana adds potassium and natural sweetness, while cocoa powder provides polyphenols that support antioxidant activity. Tahini contributes unsaturated fats and calcium, supporting heart and bone health as part of an overall balanced plant-based diet.
