Ayurveda really knows how to do almonds! The nuts are soaked and the skins removed for easier digestion. For added sweetness without added sugar, try a chopped date or a dried fig. The spices are suggestions – please feel free to add any that you love. Enjoy this delicious, nutritious almond milk warmed or chilled.
This egg custard is simple and nourishing comfort food. It’s ideal for anyone with a sensitive stomach or compromised digestion. It can be enjoyed warm or chilled. For Ayurveda enthusiasts, when taken warm, it’s calming to Vata. When chilled or cool, it eases Pitta, and when just a tsp of ghee along with a bit of ginger and cardamom are added, it becomes more balancing to Kapha. For a delicious twist, turn this into maple custard by using maple sugar, or into caramel-style custard by using jaggery, in place of raw sugar.
Kitchari is India’s most beloved comfort food; it’s also an important food for healing and supporting good digestion. While traditionally made with basmati rice, it can also be made with other grains. This hearty, delicious kitchari is made with sprouted quinoa, but regular quinoa will do fine.
These delicious, nutritious eggs are great at any meal. Try them with ham, bacon or sausage, or with sprouted whole grain toast, biscuits or muffins. The recipe is enough for one person, and can easily be doubled, tripled, etc.
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.
Here’s a simple, aromatic and delicious recipe you’ll return to often. Feel free to experiment with different kinds of protein, including shrimp, tofu and legumes such as garbanzo beans or lentils.
