INGREDIENTS:

1 ripened banana

1/4 lime squeezed (optional)

1/8 tsp. of cardamom powder

1/8 tsp. of cinnamon powder

1 tsp. of honey

1 tsp. of ghee or coconut oil (melted)

PREPARATION:

In a small bowl take the banana and peel it. Then. mash it with a fork. Crush the nuts and pour it in the bowl.  Add  the granola or oats and then the spices. Take the honey and drizzle it on. Pour the oil and squeeze the lime.

Note: This makes a yummy breakfast option. It is more for Vata, Pitta types and neutral to Kapha. Generally, if Kapha isn't hungry or heaviness is felt then this dish can be avoided or simply take out the banana and keep the pre-existing ingredients. A cup of tea is also great with this meal.
