This is a simple, wonderful tea that can be made with your choice of milk, however, the richer the milk (or nut milk) the creamier and more delicious the tea. If you enjoy dairy products, try this recipe with 6 Tbsp whole milk and 2 Tbsp cream in place of half cup (8 Tbsp) milk. The tea is wonderful hot, but can also be enjoyed cold on a hot summer day.

Iced Green Tea with Ginger, Lime and Cardamom
Enjoy this delicious green tea year round. For a truly beautiful iced tea, add some blueberries to the bottom of your glass when serving. This recipe makes enough for one person but is easily doubled, tripled or quadrupled, as desired.
Ayurveda Cardamom-Citrus Immune Support Tea
This tea is wonderfully fragrant with cardamom and orange. It’s ideal for spring and winter. We use Organic Darjeeling Green tea, however Organic Darjeeling Black Tea or a favorite herbal tea such as spearmint could also be used. The Immune Support Tea contains Guduci, a popular Ayurvedic herb used traditionally to support good immunity.
Tandoori Seared Chicken Legs
This is an incredibly easy recipe that boasts such great flavor you’ll be making it a lot! The chicken is seared in a cast iron skillet in hot ghee to brown on both sides, then transferred to the oven to continue cooking. We used whole chicken legs (thigh with drumstick) but you can use the breast with skin, if desired, although the roasting time will likely be a bit longer. You can easily make as much chicken as your skillet can hold.
Dave’s Stuffed Peppers
Our friend Dave is such a creative cook! When he told us about his luscious stuffed peppers, we had to get his recipe! Although he used ground lamb, he assured us this dish is equally delicious made with ground pork, beef, chicken or turkey, and for a vegetarian option, mashed, seasoned tofu, lentils or any favorite legume
Indian Rice with Saffron, Spices and Cashews
This is a classic take on an Indian favorite, made with our precious long-grain, aged basmati rice, aromatic spices, Kashmiri saffron, Indian bay and roasted cashew nuts. It’s delicious with a legume or meat dish, a green vegetable and/or a seasonal green salad.

Pear Salad with Roasted Walnuts and Mango-Primal Dressing
Enjoy this salad all year long by going with the seasons. For example, in summer, consider using peaches and sunflower seeds in place of pears and walnuts which are better suited for fall and winter. This should yield 4 servings.
Kick-Spiced Mini Turkey Muffins
These little meat muffins make a great snack or meal if you’re watching your carbs. Kick Ketchup can be mixed in equal proportions with regular organic ketchup or tomato paste to reduce spiciness. We used dark turkey, however, if using breast meat, adding 1/2 Tbsp olive or almond oil to the recipe makes for a juicier result. For standard muffin tins, the yield is roughly 10-12 depending on optional ingredients added. These freeze well.
