At TIEX the diet we provide focuses on mainly vegetarian cuisine that is mainly dairy free. The amount of dairy you consume eat day can ad up suprisinginly quickly. That’s why we like to offer you milk alternatives when you stay with us. When we use dairy products we do so sparingly and choose the healthiest options. For example ricotta cheese boasts some great health benefits such as being high in vitamin A, calcium and is a good source of protein. The recipe below we use as a sandwich filling and is great on toast during winter for brunch or supper.
