🍄 Dinner for two. 20 minutes. After a full day at work.
No stress. No compromise. Just good food that actually does something for your body.
Mushroom, broccoli, ginger, garlic, oriental leaves and baby corn — tossed in a satay sauce and served in corn tacos for that satisfying crunch. 🌮
No rice. No noodles. Just a clever little swap that changes everything.
🌮 Why corn tacos instead of rice or noodles?
In Ayurveda, evenings are governed by Kapha energy — the body is slowing down, digestion is quieter. Heavy carbs like rice or noodles at night sit in the gut, create heaviness and can disrupt sleep.
Corn tacos are naturally gluten-free, lower GI and lighter on the digestive system. They also add that crunch you’d normally miss — so you’re not sacrificing anything, you’re upgrading.
Eat lighter in the evening. Sleep better. Wake up feeling clear.
🍄 Mushrooms — adaptogenic, immune-boosting & one of the most powerful plant foods you can eat
🫚 Ginger & garlic — nature’s anti-inflammatories, warming & deeply cleansing after a long day
🥦 Broccoli & oriental leaves — support the liver, gut & the body’s natural detox pathways
🌽 Baby corn — light, fibre-rich & kind to your evening digestion
🥜 Satay sauce — healthy fats from peanut, grounding & deeply satisfying without being heavy
🌮 Corn tacos — the crunch, the swap, the upgrade
This is what eating with intention looks like on a weeknight. 🙏
