A light, comforting broth inspired by Filipino tinola moringa’s warmth in a bowl.
It’s my go-to reset meal: gingery, green, and grounding. Moringa brings calm energy while fresh lemon and papaya add brightness.

Ingredients

• 1 tsp moringa powder or small handful fresh moringa leaves

• 1 Tbsp coconut oil

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 thumb ginger, sliced

• 1 small onion, chopped

• 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth

• 1 Tbsp fish sauce or soy sauce

• 1 cup green papaya or zucchini, sliced

• Juice of ½ lemon or calamansi

• Sea salt + pepper

Directions

1. Sauté garlic, ginger, onion in coconut oil until fragrant.

2. Add broth + papaya; simmer until tender.

3. Remove from heat; stir in moringa (don’t boil).

4. Finish with lemon juice + a breath of gratitude.

Serving Tip: Sip slowly mornings, post-travel, or after long days.
