Our family saves money by buying bananas in bulk. The kids enjoy peeling and freezing them in zip-loc bags. Simply pull one or two out as needed.
1. Chop two frozen bananas into thirds and add to a blender with the other ingredients.
2. Starting on low speed, puree the mixture until it is smooth and creamy. Serve and enjoy.
This recipe is also delicious with room-temperature bananas as a smoothie. For firmer consistency, place in freezer for ten minutes or until desired consistency is reached.

Each dosha reflects a distinct metabolic nature and describes strengths & weaknesses in bodily function, and how these affect energy levels, digestion, susceptibility to disease, and many other tendencies.
Your metabolic nature not only affects your physical characteristics, but also influences your mental thought patterns, confidence, and enthusiasm.
Ayurveda balances these metabolic strengths & weaknesses to support your body's vitality and prevent recurrent disease cycles. This support is a critical aid, especially in chronic or incurable disease conditions.
The 3 metabolic body types (doshas), are Catabolic (Vata), Metabolic (Pitta), and Anabolic (Kapha).
Through dosha, Ayurveda empowers people to identify metabolic imbalances early, break repetitive patterns of disease, and cultivate habits that support long-term vitality and well-being.
Ultimately, these metabolic patterns also provide a framework for understanding yourself, including body, mind, and spiritual tendencies.

Founder of Joyful Belly Ayurveda, John Immel, answers the question ‘What is Ayurveda?’
Do you like 'banana ice cream with almonds'? Why or why not? What makes it unique? Is there something else you'd like to know about 'banana ice cream with almonds'?
Cold foods are also forbidden. But, how does the ancient text help parents who break down and buy store bought ice-cream for their kids? The fact is that children will demand treats - and dietary purity itself leads to social isolation, etc that also damages agni. So, a middle ground (with complete disclosure) will be helpful for many parents, and that is the intention. Thanks for bringing up this important point!"
