This creamy, delicious, grain-free version of an old Indian classic features yellow split mung dal blended with yellow potatoes, vegetables, ghee, and delectable Indian spices. Feel free to use vegetable broth, bone broth, or water, as desired. Pre-soaking the mung dal for 45 minutes to an hour helps to reduce the cooking time and make the kitchari even creamier. This will serve 2-4 people.

Mung Dal Buckwheat Kitchari
This simple, nourishing recipe is a different take on an old classic. We made it in our pressure cooker, however you can easily make it on a stove top. Despite the name, buckwheat is not related to wheat. It’s a gluten-free starchy seed that is used like a grain. According to Ayurveda, buckwheat can be enjoyed by each dosha, however, its light, nourishing qualities make it especially good for kapha dosha. This recipe serves 2 people. Be sure to add any additions desired, and remember – kitchari is supposed to be porridge-like in consistency, however you can add less water if you would like it to be thicker.
Darjeeling Green Tea Latte
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.
Darjeeling Iced Green Tea with Lime, Honey and Fruit
This fruity green tea can be enjoyed year round. It’s best served room temperature or chilled. We’ve opted for wild blueberries and organic grapes, but feel free to choose your favorite seasonal fruit. This recipe serves one person but is easily doubled, tripled or quadrupled for more.
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.
