Cacao and Blueberry Salad



A quick and nutrient-packed summertime snack that’s great for all doshas. Cacao beans are full of nutrients and antioxidants, and support the circulatory system and lower cholesterol.  The bean is also known to enhance your mood, improve your focus and suppress a cough!  Cacao is stimulating (can increase Vata), heating (increasing Pitta) and can be fattening (increasing Kapha) if taken in excess, but delicious in moderation.


Ingredients:

½ cup organic or local blueberries (tridoshic)

2 tbsp raw cacao nibs

1 tbsp hemp seeds (omit for Kapha)


Directions:

Throw together in a bowl and enjoy with a spoon.
