Enjoy our special recipes!
Milkaid® have partnered with registered nutrition consultant, Jenna Hope (ANutr), MSc (Hons) to bring you a series of delicious, nutritious and fun family-friendly recipes that you can enjoy even if you or a member of your family has a lactose intolerance – we’ve even included a vegetarian friendly one.
The series of six recipes includes three which include dairy components, so we recommend using either Milkaid® Drops or Milkaid® Tablets accordingly which will reduce any of the usual discomfort you might experience
following eating dairy.
There are also three recipes that omit from using dairy at all to offer you that flexibility. But don’t forget dairy is an important part of a balanced diet and you can read more about that here.
