Turkey, Kale, and Carrot Hash

This breakfast will nourish and sustain you for hours! Make up a big batch on the weekend and then reheat small portions as needed in a small skillet with a few tablespoons of water. Serve over Baked Winter Squash with a few spoonfuls of Cultured Vegetables if desired. I also like to add sliced avocados to my portion or drizzle the whole meal with the Green Goddess Dressing.

Chicken Apple Breakfast Sausages

You can make this recipe ahead of time, form them into patties and either freeze or refrigerate them before cooking. Then take one or two out at a time to cook as needed. Uncooked sausages will last up to 2 days in the refrigerator or 6 months in the freezer. Serve with a green salad and a cup of herbal tea for breakfast. You can also serve these for dinner in between two romaine lettuce leaves with your favorite fixings!

Celeriac-Rutabaga Hashbrowns

Other root vegetables can replace potatoes when making hashbrowns. My favorite is to use a combination of celeriac and rutabaga. I cut the vegetables into pieces and then use my food processor fitted with the grating disc to quickly grate everything. You should have 4 to 5 cups total. Serve with Chicken-Apple Breakfast Sausages and organic salad greens for a balanced meal.

Spiced Seed Granola

Carry a small container of this grain-free seed-based granola with you for a snack or serve it for breakfast with Vanilla Hemp Milk topped with fresh berries. When shopping for seeds, look for shelled green pumpkin seeds, often called pepitas.

Creamy Green Detox Soup

This beautiful green detox soup is easy to digest, light, and nourishing. Add in additional fresh herbs if desired—try dill, tarragon, or oregano. Freeze cooled soup in wide-mouthed pint or quart jars for later use.

Carrot Ginger Shiitake Soup

I prefer to use quite a bit more ginger in this soup than what I call for. If you love the flavor and spice that ginger provides, then add up to twice as much as what is called for below. If your ginger is quite fresh there is no need to peel it, on the other hand, if it is older with a thick skin, then peel it.

Beet Rosemary Detox Soup

This beautiful beet soup is nourishing, warming, and full of compounds that assist the liver in detoxification. If you can tolerate dairy products, top each bowl of soup with a dollop of organic sour cream. If you are following a dairy-free diet or the Elimination Diet, use coconut milk or a dollop of coconut yogurt.

White Bean, Wild Rice, and Kale Soup

This hearty, warming soup is perfect to make on a chilly autumn or winter evening. I like to use cannellini beans, but other white beans work as well, such as navy or great northern. Serve with a Roasted Delicata Squash Salad for a balanced meal. This soup freezes well—pour into widemouthed jars, cool, and then freeze.

Bone Broth Vegetable Soup

This soup makes the perfect breakfast on day 3 when you are coming off of phase 1. Keep a few jars in your fridge at all times to have on hand for quick meals on the go. Feel free to use 8 cups of your favorite vegetables—try the combination I suggest below or your own creation!

Healing Cabbage and Chicken Soup

When you have homemade Chicken Broth stocked in your freezer or refrigerator anything is possible when it comes to soup. This recipe comes together quickly and can be made with either chicken thighs or boneless breasts. Serve it with leftover cooked brown rice or white jasmine rice.

Chicken Vegetable Soup

Make a pot of this soup on the weekend so you will have ready-to-go food during the week. You can vary this recipe by adding different vegetables to the soup portion. Try shiitake mushrooms, lemongrass, and grated ginger for an Asian-inspired soup. You could also add diced root vegetables such as parsnips, rutabagas, celeriac, turnips, and golden beets for a winter vegetable chicken soup.

Recipe
Turkey Vegetable Soup

This soup makes for a warming, winter meal. Making soup with bone-in, skin-on poultry is a two-part process—first you make a rich broth, then you make the soup. It’s very simple, but it does require a few hours of cooking time so plan on making this soup on the weekend if you work away from your home during the week. If you have an Instant Pot you can save time by making the broth part of this recipe in it (follow my directions below for this variation).

Recipe
Harvest Squash Soup

This soup makes a very quick meal as long as you have leftover cooked chicken and baked squash sitting in your refrigerator needing to be used up. I like to use the leftover meat from a whole roasted chicken. Use any type of winter squash—sugar pie pumpkins, butternut squash, hubbard, or acorn. The key to a flavorful soup is starting with a very rich homemade chicken or turkey stock!

Nightshade-Free Beef Stew

The pomegranate juice in this recipe is what I use to replace the acidity tomatoes usually give to beef stew. Look for pure, unsweetened pomegranate juice, not a blend of juices. You can replace the pomegranate juice with homemade beef stock if desired. Serve with baked winter squash and a large green salad for a balanced meal.

Quinoa and Adzuki Bean Dosas

Dosas are traditional Indian pancakes or crepes made from soaked and fermented whole grains and beans. They make a great bread replacement! Making dosas is a two-part process—first you soak the grains and beans overnight, then you blend them into a batter and let it ferment. This is one of the most digestible ways to prepare grains and beans. Replace the adzuki beans with black beans, mung beans, black-eyed peas, or chickpeas if desired.

Almond Flour Tortillas

Carrot Breakfast Muffins

Using high-protein almond flour and very little sweetener makes these muffins a good choice for breakfast. You will feel satiated longer because of the fat and protein found in the almond flour and eggs. Be sure to use “blanched almond flour” which is very finely ground.

Chia-Rice Sandwich Bread

This delicious bread recipe is designed for the reintroduction of yeast during the late stages of Phase 3 of the Elimination Diet. It’s free of all other irritants making it easy to notice if there is a reaction to yeast. If you find you are able to tolerate yeast then use this bread recipe for sandwiches or toast (toasted in a gluten-free toaster) throughout the rest of the diet. Chia seeds can be found at most health food stores. Grind them in a coffee grinder or high-powered blender.

Spring Salad with Snap Peas, Salmon, and Radishes

I like to cook extra salmon when making dinner so I can have it to make big salads for lunch the next day. Use your favorite salad dressing here. I like to use the Green Goddess Dressing!

Roasted Delicata Squash Salad with Apples and Toasted Pumpkin Seeds

Delicata squash are a smaller, sweet winter squash with thin skin—so they don’t need to be peeled before roasting or eating! Winter squash are available early to mid-fall and can usually be found through March in most grocery stores. Serve salad with a hearty bean soup or with baked salmon for a balanced meal. Use the simple olive oil and apple cider vinegar dressing below, or use another dressing on this site.

Raw Kale Salad with Lemon and Garlic

This is one of our favorite ways to prepare raw kale! We serve it with everything from baked chicken or fish to pizza and hearty bean soups. It’s even great the next day as leftovers—the kale will soften the longer it sits in the dressing, which makes it more tender and easier to chew.

This is one of my “fast food” recipes. You can create a very quick meal using dark leafy greens, roasted sweet potatoes or squash, and wild fish or organic chicken. These greens also make a great addition to any dinner, breakfast, or brunch!

Sautéed Kale with Shiitake Mushrooms

Recipe
Butternut Squash and Sage Stuffing

This stuffing is made without bread! Using all whole food ingredients, it’s packed with nutrients like beta-carotene, and immune-boosting chemicals. I like to make sure the squash is cut into smaller cubes that are all relatively the same size, which allows for even cooking. To quickly mince the mushrooms, simply toss them all into a food processor fitted with the “s” blade and pulse until minced.
