Butternut Squash Curry & Cauliflower Rice.

 

This is a delicious vegan/vegetarian recipe that is hormonal friendly and very nourishing, high in minerals and vitamins.

Cauliflower along with all the Brassica vegetables family, contain Indol-3-Carbinol, which helps transform dangerous oestrogens into more benign forms. Coriander is the best herb for detoxifying heavy metals in your system.
