  • 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 it… obviously you can take out the supplemental boosters, but…

  • Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies (Sesame Flour)

    Tahini cookies are a regular in our home. It took a while to bring my kids around to the flavor in place of peanut butter… but now they will eat them up with fervor. These are a coconut free iteration of this recipe, and I developed it when I was struggling to digest coconut flour.…

  • Malted Maca Black Tahini Cookies (vegan)

    Anyone who knows me or has hung around this blog long enough knows I am obsessed with tahini cookies. It took me years to develop a cookie that had the chew, and texture of what I grew up knowing as a good and proper cookie. I found collagen to be extremely helpful to create the…

  • Fermented Guacamole (Regular & AIP)

  • Fir Tip Tea, or Pine Needle Tea

    I was introduced to fir tips a few years ago as a great winter vitamin C tea regimen. A friend and I went out with our kids and picked the fresh green fir tips in May and then she dried hers for storage while I fermented mine for eating and for making antioxidant rich hummus.…

  • 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 veg but also because things like carrots and celery added…

  • Roasted Brussels, Bacon & Avocado

    I love Brussels sprouts, probably more than most and have been very happy to have them back in my diet. For a few months now I have been able to eat select veggies again and it has been such a relief. I have about a dozen ways of preparing them but this recipe is a…

  • Calming Nighttime Drink

    This is my evening calming drink. I use Calm Gut Magnesium because it has probiotics as well as magnesium glycinate which is particularly good for deep sleep. I often combine two types, glycinate and citrate, the latter of which is a bowel mover and can be important if doing a gut protocol because it helps…
