Heart-Warming Arjuna Moon Milk with Rose Petal Jam

July 25, 2023 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist Leave a Comment

Moon Milk is a soothing, delicious milk-based hot beverage that has its roots in the healing tradition of Ayurveda. It’s useful for deep relaxation and sound rest, and is often taken at bed-time to calm stress and anxiety. Adding medicinal ghee increases the effectiveness and potency of the herb, carrying it deeper into the body. Feel free to adjust the spices as desired.

July 14, 2023 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist 3 Comments

Moon Milk is a soothing, delicious milk-based hot beverage that has its roots in the healing tradition of Ayurveda. It’s useful for deep relaxation and sound rest, and is often taken at bed-time to calm stress and anxiety. In this recipe, we add Ashwagandha Ghee which is used in Ayurveda to support a healthy immune system. Feel free to adjust the spices as desired.

Tandoori Seared Chicken Legs

February 24, 2023 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist 2 Comments

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.

Simple Chickpea Curry with Garlic Ghee

February 15, 2023 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist 4 Comments

The easy chickpea curry is perfect when you need a fast, flavorful, nourishing meal. It’s great with a simple green salad or served over rice or quinoa, or stuffed into a baked potato, or spooned into pita-bread halves.

Pear Salad with Roasted Walnuts and Mango-Primal Dressing

February 3, 2023 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist 1 Comment

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

February 3, 2023 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist Leave a Comment

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.
