Ellen’s Golden Milk

This is delicious as an energy boost, or a soothing night time night cap to calm nerves prior to going to bed. Lately I have been making this as a pick me up during the cold afternoons or taking it as a dessert a little bit after dinner time. Turmeric has so many amazing medicinal attributes, including anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties.

1 heaping T Coconut Manna

2c boiling water

1/2″ piece fresh ginger

1/2t cinnamon

pinch pink salt

pinch black pepper

1 1/2t turmeric

Heat up 2 cups water in a kettle or on the stove. Pick your mug! I don’t put the turmeric  in my blender as it discolors the container – a glass container should be okay!) See below.

In a high powered blender, add all the other ingredients- ginger, manna, salt, black pepper, nutmeg, sweetener, cinnamon etc. I measure the water by the mug I chose! Big mug, more water! I pour the boiling water into the mug, then into the blender then process everything for a minute or two. While that is blending, I add the turmeric into the empty mug. When its’ finished blending, pour the hot milk into the mug, Sprinkle with more cinnamon. SO TASTY!

Changing the world with food…

“”Together we are creating this dance to have a better world. Your passion for this fascination with the burning issues of our day- which is about food, personal growth and development, activism, the environment, children’s rights, women’s rights, animal rights, world health, world peace-the idea that all these could be dramatically improved by what we eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner is REVOLUTIONARY. No one would really think you could effect all those things by what’s on your plate. So I say, we should just BRING IT ON!” ~Joshua Rosenthal, Founder and Director Integrative Nutrition”
