Cauliflower Pizza Crust
You can be creative with the topping but careful not to overload. You could use a tuna topping with bell pepper, or artichoke and spinach topping with goats cheese or a Mediterranean topping with tomato sauce, bell pepper, tomato, olives, red onion, feta cheese and parsley.
Crispy Kale
You could serve these with your scrambled egg in the morning, add them into your salad in replacement for croutons or perhaps have them as a crispy garnish in your soup.
Lavender Poppy Seed Muffins
These muffins taste best when served fresh, slightly warm. However, they can be stored in an airtight container in a dry and cool place for a day or two. I suggest preheating briefly before serving…
Chocolate Orange Brownies
These chocolate orange brownies are gluten and dairy free. They can easily be stored in an airtight container in a dry and cool place for a few days; in fact, their flavor increases with time.
Glutenfree Flatbread
This flatbread is not only delicious, healthy, wheat and diary free, but it can go with anything.
Sugar Free Banana Cake
This sugar free banana cake has plenty of natural sweetness so there’s no need for any sugar.
Saag-Aloo-Paneer
Saag-aloo-paneer is delicious and of course, very nutritious, especially made with kale.
Split Yellow Mung Dal
Split yellow mung dal pacifies all three doshas. It promotes digestion, high in fibre, a source of protein.
Red Cabbage Coleslaw
Early autumn is a lovely time of year to enjoy the coleslaw and the crunchiness is a nice texture against the beans and rice.
Ayurvedic Chia Seed Porridge
Made with almond milk (or nut milk of choice), chia seeds and almond or cashew nut butter.
Coconut Green Curry
This is a great dish because you can prepare the coconut base and potatoes in about 15 minutes in the morning.
Golden Milk
Add the milk, water, spices and the date, if using, to a pan and season with black pepper and whisk well.
Vegetable Biryani
In a small saucepan, bring the stock to a boil, then add the saffron. Cover and remove from heat.
Sweet Potato Soup
In a medium pot, bring 1L of water to a boil, add your mung beans and simmer covered over low heat for 20 minutes or until mung beans are completely cooked.
Kitchari
Kitchari (pronounced kitch-a-ree) is a one-pot healing wonder of white bhasmati rice, yellow mung dhal, ghee and digestive spices that is extensively used in Ayurveda to balance the digestion and gently detoxify, whilst nourishing all the tissues of the body.
