Learn how to make the most delicious, anti-inflammatory turmeric-ginger broth—one that not only warms your body, but soothes your nervous system and stimulates healthy digestion from the inside out. I love adding chopped fresh turmeric to chicken soup, but this recipe takes the turmeric content and bioavailability to a whole new level. I’ve created a richly nourishing broth that uses both fresh turmeric and dried, powdered turmeric, layered with warming ginger, healing aromatics, and nourishing fat to support your body’s healing pathways on every level. This isn’t just soup—it’s liquid gold for your gut, immune system, and soul.

This flavorful green soup uses simple ingredients to create a nourishing meal that can help support natural detoxification. It is designed for Phase 1 of our Elimination Diet, but of course is a wonderful addition to your weekly meal planning even if you are not on the elimination diet! The Elimination Diet is not a diet that tells you what is good for you and what is not. It is a process that helps you discover what foods work best for you. We are all unique. There is no one way of eating or one perfect diet that is right for everyone. Even Hippocrates noticed this well over 2000 years ago.

I've got an easy, nourishing main dish recipe for you today! These Nightshade-Free Chicken Tacos are super easy to prepare and perfect if you are following an elimination diet, nightshade-free diet, or another special diet such as an autoimmune diet. My children also love this recipe! The chicken taco filling is cooked in a slow-cooker making the prep time less than 10 minutes. I like to serve the taco filling with my Plantain Tortillas (pictured here) or my gluten-free brown rice flour tortillas. The filling is also wonderful served inside of a baked half of a kabocha or delicata squash, topped with greens and sprouts of course!

If you are looking for an extremely easy and super nutritious cranberry sauce recipe, then I have just the thing! I've been making this raw cranberry sauce recipe for a few years and I've shared it on Instagram and Facebook, but never seem to get around to getting it up on my blog....until now!

Sometimes when the weather cools it is easy to get into the habit of eating more dense, cooked foods. For some people this is just what they need. But for others, a balance between raw and cooked is best. We each are unique, and so should be our diets. This colorful and nutrient-dense salad provides some key ingredients to support healthy detoxification. The dressing is delicious and can be used as a dip for raw veggies or used to top your favorite salads! I've even used it to top steamed vegetables! In functional medicine, detoxification is often considered "biotransformation" because our bodies will transform harmful substances into less harmful substances and then excrete them from the body.

Happy fall! I have a delicious gluten-free shortbread cookie recipe for you today! I recently became friends with a new family that came to our school. I began to talk this beautiful mama a few weeks ago at a birthday party and we could not stop talking about food!

It's not easy coming up with a whole food-based frosting that is as nutritious as it is tasty, but way back in 2010 I came up a sweet potato icing recipe based off of the ingredients I was using in the liquids for this Buckwheat Cinnamon Roll Recipe.

I love super easy meals on busy weekday evenings, don't you? This recipe (including the variations below) is one of my go-to weeknight meals. I wanted to share it with you because we all could use more ideas on how to create doable, nourishing family dinners. I love to serve this baked chicken and potato dish with a big green salad or some sort of raw kale salad. I know potatoes have received a bad rap for years, but did you know that potatoes contain high levels of potent antioxidants similar to levels found in dark cherries, strawberries, plums, and apples? In fact, the darker colored potatoes like the purple varieties contain the highest level of antioxidants....not surprisingly!

Today I wanted to share a recipe from my Nourishing Meals cookbook with you—another kneadable gluten-free bread! Creating a recipe for kneadable gluten-free (and xanthan gum-free) bread took me years and years to develop.

You are going to love this vibrant, nutrient-dense kale slaw. It’s full of detoxification and antioxidant compounds, and absolutely bursting with the fresh, bright flavors of basil, mint, and cilantro. Everything is tossed in a slightly spicy, gingery, creamy almond butter dressing that ties it all together. One of the things I love most about this salad is how well it keeps—up to five days in the refrigerator! Once it’s made, you can take out portions as needed throughout the week to easily meet your daily raw veggie needs. Lately, I’ve been serving a large plateful of this slaw with fried eggs for breakfast, or tossing it with leftover rice and garbanzo beans for a quick lunch. It also pairs beautifully with Thai-inspired dinners like Thai Coconut Fish Sticks, Thai Fish Curry with Garden Vegetables, or a Vegan Thai Green Curry.
