SPICE UP A CLASSIC
Start your day off with a nutrient-heavy, inflammation-fighting breakfast — our lazy weekend Masala Omelet — which is easy, delicious and packed full of health benefits. Turmeric is a powerful anti-inflammatory ingredient, while green chilis rev up the metabolism and are a rich source of beta-carotene and antioxidants. Cilantro contains many vitamins and minerals such as A, C, K and potassium, plus it helps remove heavy metals from the body.

POWER UP YOUR LATTE
The turmeric in this recipe adds both a bold golden hue and a powerful hit of antioxidants to your traditional latte. It also reduces inflammation, boosts the immune system and fights cell damage.
INGREDIENTS
- Handful 5-8 nuts of any choice (cashews, walnuts, almonds) soaked in water for an hour or overnight) or can use a mug of any nut milk
- 1 tsp cocoa powder
- ¼ tsp cinnamon powder
- ¼ tsp turmeric powder
- 1 small piece of fresh ginger root (or use pinch of ginger powder)
- 1 mug water
- 1 tsp Manuka honey
INSTRUCTIONS
Blend together all the ingredients, except the honey in a blender on high. If you don’t have a blender, you can use ready made almond/cashew/walnut milk instead of blending with soaked nuts.
Special Tip- the longer you soak the nuts the easier they are to blend + soaking also makes them easier to digest.
Boil this blended mixture in a pan, then pour into a mug, stir in the Manuka honey and enjoy.
If you don’t have a blender, boil together all the ingredients with any nut milk of your choice, then stir in the Manuka honey and enjoy.
