Papaya Ginger

• 1 - 1/4 c chilled unsweet coconut milk

• 1 c organic greens (just not iceberg)

• 1/2 c chopped papaya

• 1/4 c raw cashews

• 1/4 cup ice from filtered water

• 1 Tbs fresh lime juice

• 1/4 tsp grated fresh ginger

• cinnamon

Optional:

• 2 pitted dates

Also, note about regrowing ginger:

I found this out sort of by accident, when I tried putting some leftover ginger in a pot with soil (with the bud part facing down) to see what sort of plant it would grow.

Not only did it grow, but when I changed the soil I found the small piece of ginger that I planted had developed into a beautiful, fresh, large piece!

So you can just keep replanting and re-growing pieces of ginger. Pretty cool idea, no? I love the idea of re-growing produce in your own home from food scraps.

This worked for me in Buenos Aires, Argentina where the weather is sub-tropical, but your ability to grow it might depend on your local climate. Read more about growing your own ginger on  Gardener’s Path.
