Superfood Recipes

Good nutrition is and will always be the primary means to maintain good health, prevent disease and just overall help you to live your healthiest life.

Here are a few simple recipes, supercharged with our very own Jīvānām Nutrition supplements to incorporate into easy recipes you can make everyday.

Coconut Cashew Energy Balls

This recipe is perfect made in large batches and can be formed into balls, raw cookies, or shaped however you like for a superfood energy bite. We love the way the spicy ginger and turmeric compliment the creaminess of oats and cashews.

The recipe is supercharged with anti-inflammatory powerhouse turmeric, which also lends a lovely earthy spice to the energy balls as well as a beautiful golden hue.

Makes 20 balls

Ingredients:

• 300 grams cashews, toasted or raw
• 2 medjool dates
• 75 grams rolled oats
• 2 teaspoons ground ginger
• 8 capsules of Jīvānām Nutrition’s Turmeric with Ginger (twisted open)

Method:

1. Pulse the oats and cashews in a food processor or a blender
2. Add the medjool dates, ground ginger and turmeric
3. Blend all the ingredients until well incorporated
4. Roll the mixture into balls and refrigerate for an hour to set.

Adaptogenic Latte

Ashwagandha, literally translated to mean ‘smell of a horse’, can work perfectly into a variety of adaptogenic beverages to start or end your day on a healthy note. If the taste of this ancient super root isn’t particularly palatable for you, know that it mixes well with other ingredients to mask the taste while you get all the benefits.

This latte features the sweet spiciness of cinnamon to balance out the bitterness of Ashwagandha. Drink it in place of your morning coffee for a different kind of energy boost, without the crash, with the added benefit of stabilized blood sugar levels.

Makes 1 serving

Ingredients:

• 1 cup almond milk or any milk of choice
• 1 dash of vanilla

Method:

1. Pour the almond milk in a pot and heat over a low flame
2. When warm, mix in the maple syrup, vanilla, Ceylon cinnamon, and Ashwagandha and continue to gently warm the mixture without letting it boil.
3. Turn off the heat and give the mixture a good whisk or use a frother to add a layer of foam.
4. Pour into your favorite mug and enjoy!

This smoothie is best taken as your breakfast. It’s chock full of nutrient dense ingredients that blend so well together into a creamy and seemingly indulgent smoothie to help supercharge the start of your day.

Golden Hummus

One of our favorite things about turmeric is that it goes so well into sweet and savory dishes alike. Here, we use it in a hummus which gives it a stunning golden hue. Best served with fresh chunks of sourdough bread or simple whole wheat pita and roasted vegetables, or on top of a salad to bring all the ingredients together.
