Honey Mustard Radishes
A clearing, detoxifying dish. A perfect spring or summer salad.ayurveda notes
Radishes are great for detox, especially the liver. Targeted for kapha dosha.
Peppermint Cardamom Tea
ayurveda notes
Aromatics like peppermint and cardamom clear stomach stagnation and indigestion from upper GI heaviness. Add a 1/4 tsp Brahmi (gotu kola) to balance the mind with a calming and meditative effect. Perfect for a spring kapha cleanse or as a summer-time diaphoretic, helping the body sweat and keep cool.
Curried Chick Pea with Collard Greens
Made with South Indian style spices like turmeric, mustard, fenugreek and cumin.ayurveda notes
Ayurveda treats obesity with foods that are difficult to digest but not very nutritional. Chick peas are difficult to digest and protein instead of carbohydrate rich. They are also astringent helping to tonify loose, flabby tissues.
The large amount of pungent spices and the mixing of legumes with greens targets pacifying kapha dosha.
Collard Greens with Potato, Lemon & Turmeric
Simple and delicious, there are many variations. Although this recipe uses lemon others make collard greens with vinegar.ayurveda notes
Bitter collard greens and turmeric help thin and move the blood, destroying kapha. Lemon and black pepper assists digestion of the heavier potato and sunflower oil.
