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!

It’s dairy-free, paleo-friendly, and suitable for elimination diets—making it an ideal recipe for both healing and everyday summer meals. Pair it with a pitcher of fruit- and herb-infused water and a simple platter of raw summer vegetables for a refreshing meal that satisfies without weighing you down.

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.

Cucumber Mint Salad

My children adore this lively, refreshing salad—especially since cucumbers are their favorite vegetable! Crisp, hydrating, and naturally cooling, cucumbers are over 95% water and contain compounds like cucurbitacins and flavonoids that offer anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits. Paired with fresh mint, this salad is the perfect way to cool down on warm days. Serve it alongside baked chicken, grilled fish, herbed rice, or a bowl of summer beans. It also makes a lovely topping for grain bowls or tucked into lettuce wraps for a vibrant, crunch-filled meal.

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.

Blend baked winter squash with Chicken Stock or Nourishing Vegan Ginger Soup Stock for a simple, nourishing soup to sip on.

Poaching is a wonderful cooking method that doesn't involve heating up your oven in the summertime! Serve poached salmon with a large garden salad, and, if you are not on a grain-free or low-carb diet, you could also include gluten-free noodles tossed in olive oil and chopped fresh herbs to create a beautiful, nourishing summer meal.

Baked Salmon with Cashew-Ginger Sauce

This delicious Asian-inspired salmon dish is just seasoned with salt and served with a creamy ginger cashew butter sauce! If you can’t find raw cashew butter you can use ⅓ cup raw cashews soaked in water for about 1 hour (and then drained). We prefer to purchase wild Alaskan troll caught king salmon, as it is one of the most sustainable forms of salmon, with also the least amount of environmental toxins. Always look for wild Pacific salmon, and never buy farmed or Atlantic salmon.

Chicken and Vegetable Stir-Fry

Try this tasty soy-free stir-fry served over sprouted brown rice or cooked spaghetti squash. I prefer to use a 12-inch cast iron skillet to cook the chicken—it cooks evenly and quickly this way without burning. Never use any type of non-stick cookware because of the chemicals it contains!

Chicken Spinach Burgers

This recipe can be made when you are pinched for time—it’s so fast! I like to serve each burger topped with mashed avocado, sliced cucumbers, broccoli sprouts, and radishes. Wrap your burgers in a few pieces of lettuce or napa cabbage instead of using a bun. It's much healthier and easier to digest this way.
