Today, I’d love to introduce a simple favorite, a Golden Turmeric Latte, soothing and completely plant-based.
Golden Turmeric Latte (Plant-Based & Light)
Ingredients:
- 1 cup plant-based milk of choice (oat, almond, soy, cashew, etc.)
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh grated ginger or 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- A small pinch of black pepper
- Optional: 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract or 1 pitted date for gentle sweetness
Warm the plant-based milk gently on the stove. Whisk in turmeric, ginger, cinnamon and black pepper until smooth and fragrant. Sweeten if desired, pour into your favorite mug and enjoy.
Why I love this:
Turmeric and ginger are traditionally used to support inflammation and digestion, while cinnamon adds warmth without heaviness. This latte is naturally low-fat, dairy-free and free of refined sugar, making it an easy, nourishing way to stay cozy while keeping things light and intentional.
I started out over 10 years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
