Bhagavat Life

Absolutely the best ! Simple, doable recipes that I use over and over again. I also received quite an education on this alternative approach to healthy cooking. My husband and I took two classes and will be back for more.

I received my first meal from Bhagavat Life today, delivered to me in Midtown five minutes early—still warm. The many preps were labled individually, noting my dietary restrictions and resulting adjustments—all correct. I also received an email prior to delivery with the menu, detailed descriptions, medicinal values, and every ingredient, including highlighted ingredients that were omitted by request. I had heard that every ingredient was chosen and prepared consciously—for example the ghee is made and cultured using raw milk to maximize freshness, digestibility and flavor—but wasn’t prepared for how beautiful each item and packaging was. It was delivered in stainless steel tiffins (stacked containers) and glass jars—no plastic and no paper. Each item was garnished beautifully and the array of colors was stunning. All this would have been impressive enough, but the meal was both sumptuous and invigorating. I have never been a fan of beets, but Divya’s red lentil and beet pate was out of the world, containing cilantro, lime juice and an array of medicinal spices in perfect harmony. Preparations included zucchini with almonds (paneer cheese omitted to accommodate my request), pecans and orange wild rice pilaf, kale and collards with sweet potatoes, spinach and taro soup, chai (gently sweetened with maple syrup), asparagus and parsnips (made with a delectable blend of nourishing spices). My only regret is missing out on the cilantro cashew chutney and on the chocolate mousse, omitted because of Bhagavat Life’s cautious adherence to client requests like mine, to leave out anything with sugar. I can’t say enough about the quality of this experience.
