Ingredients

1 dried pappadum

Directions

Serving size: 1
Calories are low, but the sodium adds up with more servings.
Ignore package directions to cook with oil. Just spread out up to four of them in the microwave for 30 seconds or so and have fun watching these thin wafers develop fantastical shapes. You may need to rotate them after they start puffing to even out the process.

Gold Milk - Ayurvedic

Milk causes gas in people exhibiting Vata symptoms (debility, dryness, constipation, anxiety) because of their weak agni, or digestive fire. For those with a Kapha-type profile, perhaps tending toward excess weight, lethargy, and mucous buildup in the digestive tract, milk can trigger a lot of congestion. Gold milk, on the other hand, is readily absorb-able by Vata and actually destroys mucous in Kapha, making this essential nutritive tonic and rejuvenator a treat for all.

Here's how: Cinnamon and cardamom stimulate digestive activity and break up stomach mucous making the milk easy to digest. Once digested, nutrient-dense milk has a tendency to cool, congeal, and clog the blood. As circulation stagnates, the lungs, sinuses, and all empty cavities fill up with fluids, especially mucous. This kind of mucous lodges deep in the lungs and can be very difficult for Kapha individuals to expectorate.

The herb that gives this recipe its namesake, the golden turmeric, heats and thins the blood. Honey liquefies mucous, preventing the aforementioned circulatory stagnation and mucus. Thin blood circulates freely and makes a Kapha body warm-blooded during colder winter months!
Additionally, turmeric is a natural antibiotic and antimicrobial that is appropriate for even weak individuals. Cinnamon, the beloved spice that seems to have a place in all fall and winter desserts, can help with rebounding from the colds and flus that are as much a part of the holidays as caroling and jingle bells.

I know!! I've been saying this for years to my dieting girls in the gym and they all look shocked and stumped. I said forget the bread Papadums is the new bread. Ever since my sis got me the Papadum Express tray for multiple papads on the go, it's dips, chutneys, salads, toppings and papads all year - 12/25/13

Don't have any at home now. Look for flat packs of 10 in either square faced, fairly flat boxes, or clear plastic or celophane envelopes. The papad / papadum themselves are thin and tan & about the diameter of your hand with fingers spread wide. Patak is a supermarket brand that comes in a box
