White Chicken Chili

White Chicken Chili

This hearty White Chicken Chili is warming, creamy and comforting. This is perfect for Fall and a family favorite. I use Manchego because it is an A2 dairy sheep cheese, which is less inflammatory and frankly I can eat it. But for all of you […]

Kale & Berry Summer Omega Superfood Salad with Tahini Dressing (Vegan & Paleo)

Kale & Berry Summer Omega Superfood Salad with Tahini Dressing (Vegan & Paleo)

It’s berry season! I usually buy up fresh cranberries in the fall and freeze them for year round use but this salad is wonderful with sliced strawberries, or tart blueberries or raspberries. Berries are chock full of antioxidants and a great addition to summer detox. […]

Keto Paleo Pumpkin Bread (Banana, Apple)

Keto Paleo Pumpkin Bread (Banana, Apple)

This has become a family favorite and was adapted from a Healthy Recipes Blog recipe. I made a few changes, including ditching Stevia as it’s not always as clean as I would like due to it’s processing and is also used as birth control in […]

Paleo Beef & Pepper Hand Pie, Aussie style

Paleo Beef & Pepper Hand Pie, Aussie style

Every time I have been pregnant I have craved this Aussie staple.  It has been years since I have made it though, due to my healing journey… which, I have to say, must have worked well because I am pregnant again in my 40’s! 😂 I […]

Sweet Potato Fries with Manjistha

Sweet Potato Fries with Manjistha

Instant Pot Shredded Chicken

Instant Pot Shredded Chicken

This I feel goes without saying, but meal prep really helps during the week… and who doesn’t love shredded chicken?  I do a roast chicken most Sundays for dinner, but the kids prefer it shredded to put in tacos and lettuce boats.  It’s simply smart […]

Malted Chocolate Smoothie with Maca for Hormone Balance

Of late this smoothie has been my go-to to get through the afternoon slump.  It’s how I break my fast for lunch, and carries me through my post homeschool run so I can tackle a bit of work with a fully functional brain.   I love […]

Fermented Guacamole (Nightshade-Free)

Fermented Guacamole (Nightshade-Free)

Who loves guac?!  Personally, I love guacamole… but I truly do not enjoy the speed at which I have to consume it so it does not turn brown.  Once in a while I will make fermented kefir guac which doesn’t brown, but I can no […]

Easy Instant Pot Bone Broth

This is my gut healing bone broth recipe.  It is very basic and does not have all the added veggies that many people choose to add to bone broth both because it keeps it clean for those who have inflammatory responses to a lot of […]
