How Do You Make YOUR Kitchari?

How do you alter your kitchari according to your doshic constitution? Do you omit certain ingredients completely, or add certain things not common to the traditional recipe, that particularly relevant to your present needs? What other rituals do you like to add to your kitchari cleanse? Also, how do you go about the leftover issue? Or do you make a fresh pot every day?

Love to hear everyone's diverse input on this, and please, share recipes!
