  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds (65g), Salt and pepper to taste

This PCOS-friendly recipe is designed to support hormone balance with its high protein content and rich source of zinc from the pumpkin seeds. Zinc is essential for the production and regulation of insulin, a key hormone that is often imbalanced in PCOS. The meal is also high in healthy fats from the beef tallow and pumpkin seeds, which can help to regulate blood sugar levels and support overall hormone health. The spinach provides a good source of iron and calcium, important nutrients for overall health and well-being.
