It’s the end of peach season around here, and oh my goodness, has it been amazing. I look forward to peaches all year long. They are a fave fruit fo sho, as you probably could tell from my peachy plantain cobbler recipe. I talk about how one of my dreams […]
Want to know my fave kind of meals lately? Anything QUICK and EASY! I’ve been SO busy lately with work, school, fixing up our house, and of course our three kiddos. I really haven’t had much time for anything else these past few months (as you can probably tell by […]
The thought of transitioning to a healing diet such as AIP can be daunting. You start thinking ‘what is there left to eat that actually tastes good’? If you’re thinking that right now, I’m here to tell you that eating a nutrient dense diet does NOT have to be boring! […]
When Ali from Empowered Autoimmune asked if I would do a guest post, I thought it would be fun to share a light, refreshing dish to take a break from all the indulging that goes along with the holidays! This dish is nutrient dense and easy to throw together. I […]
Why are fries so darn good? To me it doesn’t matter which vegetable it is, if it’s in the shape of a fry it makes it taste so much better. Same goes with the noodle shape. What’s that about? It must have to do with the fact that it’s just […]
We had a blast on our trip to Toronto. It’s always fun visiting the big city! I REALLY enjoyed eating healthy takeout, because my options are very limited here. I was introduced to all the bowl meals! I mean, I knew they were popular but I had no idea […]
Filled with vitamins, minerals, and fiber that our bodies need, a variety of plentiful vegetables is imperative when it comes to healing. I like eating vegetables a variety of ways but I LOVE me some roasted veggies. I will often simply toss chopped veggies with avo oil and salt and roast them in […]
When I was in high school, I worked at a local coffee shop/lunch place. It was one of my all-time favourite jobs. I loved the coffee smell, seeing the regulars come in each morning, and I adored making the drinks and food. This coffee shop was not only popular for their coffee, […]
No matter how you look at it, we NEED nutrients. For most of us, our bodies are compromised when it comes to absorbing nutrients (thanks to leaky gut), so what is the best approach? Nutrient Density. This is one of, if not the most, crucial part of any healing diet. You want to […]
Being prepared is the key to success on AIP, or any real-food healing diet. When I started AIP, I was home, Mommin’ full-time. I randomly batch cooked freezer meals to have on hand. I never had specific days or a specific amount of food to make, I just did it whenever I felt […]
Christmas is around the corner – doesn’t it always sneak up on us like that? We’re in the midst of Christmas decorating and Christmas shopping (woohoo cyber Monday today). I have an idea of what AIP food I’ll be making, my buttertarts are most definitely on my baking list – they […]
I love pomegranates, they’re such a fun food, like nature’s version of Gushers. Remember those? Do they still make them? If they do, please don’t eat them… Eat pomegranate instead! The fruit gives you that burst of sweet tart juice, and a little crunch. You really can’t go wrong pairing […]
