Berry & Honeydew Avocado Salad with Tiger Nuts & Vinaigrette Dressing
Berry & Honeydew Avocado Salad with Tiger Nuts & Vinaigrette Dressing
Tiger nuts, also known as earth almonds, aren’t actually nuts. They’re tubers that have a chewy almond-like taste. Tiger nuts are a good source of protein and beneficial fats along with resistant starch fibre that acts as a prebiotic. Including tiger nuts with meals can help improve satiety and reduce blood-sugar level spikes.
