Nourishing Kitchari
Kitchari (kitch-a-ree) is considered one of the most nourishing and healing foods in Ayurveda. The humble yet powerful combination of rice and beans are staples globally – they represent survival itself. In kitchari, mung beans and basmati rice are slow cooked with loads of water to create a deeply hydrating, protein rich meal that is a brilliant conduit for the medicine of spices.

Ingredients: basmati rice*, yellow mung beans*, ghee*, garlic*, fresh ginger*, coconut oil *, black mustard seeds, cumin seeds*, fresh curry leaves, asafoetida, turmeric*, black pepper*, sea salt
* organic

Mama’s Mung Bean Soup
The almighty healing food, mung beans are the base of this brothy protein-rich soup. Garlic, ginger, and spices are cooked slowly to make them more easily digestible so that they can kindle the digestive fire without creating too much heat in the system. This is great for anyone in need of a comforting bowl of immunity-boosting soup and is especially good for acute illness, post-surgery and postnatal recovery.

Ingredients: yellow mung beans*, dehydrated carrot*, coconut milk powder* (coconut), garlic*, coconut oil* (coconut), fresh ginger*, cumin seeds*, turmeric powder*, black pepper*, sea salt, asofoetida

Jade & Ginger Congee
Cultures around the world rely on bowls of smooth, creamy congee to rebalance and heal. Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, this congee uses precious jade pearl rice for its grassy flavor alongside warming fresh ginger. Coastal Gomasio is tucked inside to add rich toasted sesame seeds, mineral-rich wild crafted dulse from the Mendocino coastline, and Sonoma Coast sea salt to your savory congee.

Good for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, this congee can be made savory or sweet. It’s excellent topped with an egg and some greens for a simple anytime dish or you can skip the Coastal Gomasio topping and add ghee and raw honey for a soothing sweet bowl. For an ultimate healing one-pot meal, slow cook with chicken thighs. It’s an incredibly adaptable and easy-to-digest dish.
