Raw Orange Panna Cotta with Pomegranate

As we all know it can become very difficult to stick to a healthy diet on Christmas day!

Don’t fear! The temptation to eat all of the usual festive sugary foods can be minimised by having healthy and delicious dessert options prepared.

I have a recipe for a healthy raw dessert that you can create for Christmas day.

These raw panna cotta’s can be prepared in advance and kept in the fridge for days before Christmas.
