Ingredients

Method

Turn cooking mode on

For the base

Line a small loaf tin or rectangle container with baking paper, leaving some overhang so you can lift the bars out once set.

Add the Chief Lemon Collagen Bars, Medjool dates, almond flour and sea salt to a food processor.

Process until the mixture is crumbly and starts to clump together when pressed between your fingers.

If the mixture feels too dry, add 1 tbsp melted coconut oil or butter and pulse again. Add a little more only if needed.

Press the mixture firmly into the base of the lined tin.

Place in the fridge or freezer while you make the filling.

For the lemon yoghurt colostrum filling

Add the Greek yoghurt, Chief Colostrum Powder, honey, lemon zest, vanilla and sea salt to a bowl.

Whisk until smooth and creamy.

Add the gelatin powder to ¼ cup cold water and let it sit for 5 minutes until thick and jelly-like.

Warm the lemon juice gently until just warm and steamy, not boiling.

Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm lemon juice and whisk until completely dissolved and smooth.

Allow the lemon-gelatin mixture to cool for 1–2 minutes so it is warm, not hot.

Slowly pour the lemon-gelatine mixture into the yoghurt mixture whisking consistently until well combined.

Pour the filling over the chilled base, sprinkle over extra lemon zest and chopped pistachios.

Place in the fridge for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until set.

To serve

For cleaner slices, place the bars in the freezer for 20–30 minutes before cutting.

Slice into 5–8 bars depending on your preferred serving size.

Serve chilled.

Notes

How is this recipe good for supporting liver and lymph flow?
This isn’t a “detox dessert” it’s a nourishing dessert / treat recipe that brings in ingredients to support your body’s natural liver and lymph pathways while still feeling super creamy, tangy and satisfying.

Chief Lemon Collagen Bars
The Chief Lemon Collagen Bars create the base of the slice while adding collagen-rich protein. Protein provides amino acids, which are important for the liver’s detoxification pathways, repair processes and overall nourishment. Using the bars as the base also helps make the recipe more satisfying, so it feels like a proper snack or dessert.

Chief Colostrum Powder
Chief Colostrum Powder is added to the chilled filling so it isn’t heated (and therefore damaged). It adds so much extra nourishment to the creamy layer as colostrum is rich in bioactive compounds including immunoglobulins, growth factors and proteins that help support immune function, gut barrier integrity and overall nourishment.

Lemon
Lemon juice and zest are one of the key ingredients in this recipe. The zest brings bitter aromatic compounds, which are beautiful for supporting digestion and bile flow, while the juice adds vitamin C which supports collagen formation and connective tissue integrity, which is relevant for the lymphatic system’s fluid-moving network.

Greek Yoghurt
Greek yoghurt gives the filling its creamy, tangy cheesecake texture while also adding protein. From a liver and lymph perspective, this truly matters because protein helps support blood sugar balance, satiety and the amino acid needs of the liver. Its tang also keeps the bars feeling fresh and light rather than heavy like a traditional cheesecake.
