This sounds delicious! Love all the information I've learned about breastfeeding since becoming a doula. There's so many things I wish I'd known when I was going through pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding etc. for the first time!
Got the recipe from this website: http://onelovelivity.com/childofnatureblog/?p=1782 they also explain in detail why each of these ingredients helps milk production, and the benefits it has for nursing mommies!!
