The only ingredient in their moringa is….moringa! (Holy crap, I just love saying that word!)
I’ve been drinking Organic India’s teas for years now, so I was excited to try their Organic Moringa Leaf Powder. I had NO clue what the heck it was, but they were lovely enough to send me some to try, along with some cool factoids about it! Taken from leaves of trees that grow in India, it has 46 antioxidants, 36 anti-inflammatory compounds, seven times the vitamin C in an orange and four times the vitamin B12 in one steak serving. (#PLANT POWER!) I’ve been putting it in my morning smoothies and feeling totally energized! It smells a bit like matcha green tea powder. You can make all kinds of tasty things with it, like their “Power Snacks.” (How easy & delicious does this recipe look?!)
Power Snacks (and here’s a how-to video)
1 tbsp Organic India Moringa Powder
16 dates, pitted
1/2 cup of coconut oil
2 tsp cinnamon powder
1/2 cup of cacao nibs
1 cup of raw almonds
1/2 cup chia seeds
Combine ingredients in Blender or Food Processor until smooth
Shape mixture into bite-sized pieces
Place on plate and refrigerate until the pieces harden
DELIVER THEM TO MY HOUSE IN LA (kthx)
