Recipe
Almond Flour Pizza with Pesto and Arugula

This is a basic grain-free pizza recipe, but you can top this pizza crust with whatever toppings you prefer. Grilled chicken and sautéed mushrooms would be great toppings.

Basic Zucchini Noodles

Serve these basic grain-free noodles with your favorite sauce, meatball recipe, or toss into a low-carb soup recipe. You will need a Spiralizer for this recipe. You can spiralize the zucchini into whatever noodle shape you would like (depending on your spiralizer). Pictured here is a basic spaghetti noodle shape.

Simple Breakfast Stir-Fry

We often have a pot of leftover rice sitting on the stove from the previous night’s dinner. By using it for breakfast you can create a very quick and healthy meal. I serve this simple stir-fry along with a spoonful of Raw Cultured Vegetables or whatever type of lacto-fermented vegetables I have on hand.

Creamy Turkey Chili

This creamy chili is truly a keto comfort food recipe! If you are not on a keto diet or other special diet that does not allow legumes, then try adding a few cups of cooked white or black beans to this recipe.

Chocolate Chip Almond Butter Cookies

My daughter, Grace, created this recipe when she was 8-years old. She initially made it using raw almond butter (which is quite runny) and had included 2 tablespoons of coconut flour in her recipe. When I retested it using roasted almond butter I found that it did not need any coconut flour. So if you choose to use raw almond butter, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of coconut flour, depending on how thin the dough is. You can add chocolate chips or replace them with dried cranberries or raisins if desired!

Coconut Banana Breakfast Cake

My children think that having cake for breakfast is quite a treat, although this is not your typical cake; it is high in protein and low in sugar. In fact, it is completely free of any sweetener other than mashed ripe bananas! Since this cake is made with coconut flour, you will not be able to replace the eggs with an egg-substitute in this recipe. Serve with sliced fresh bananas and a dollop of sunflower butter or peanut butter.

Baby Banana Pancakes

This egg-free pancake recipe is perfect for babies about 9 months or older. I prefer to use sprouted brown rice flour in this recipe because it is easier to digest and does not interfere with mineral absorption—something very important for growing babies! These pancakes are best served with a little bit of fat, which helps to keep blood sugar levels balanced. Try a dollop of pastured butter, coconut butter, or sunflower seed butter.

Coconut Raspberry Muffins

Pairing fresh raspberries, coconut flour, and eggs creates a flavorful, light grain-free muffin. Plus, with so few ingredients, this recipe can be whipped up in very little time. You can replace the raspberries with huckleberries, blackberries, or blueberries if desired.

Sautéed Fennel

Fennel is one of my favorite vegetables. It is slightly sweet with a subtle licorice flavor that pairs well with the sweetness of the butter and savory flavor in the garlic. Serve this vegetable side with any roasted or seared meat dish and a starchy vegetable like carrots, squash, or sweet potato.

Basic Navy Beans

Navy beans are one of the smallest white beans and are perfect for adding to soups, salads, or stir fries. I like to add a bay leaf and some smashed cloves of garlic to the cooking liquid to infuse additional flavor into my beans, but feel free to skip these ingredients if you are short on time or they are not included in your diet recommendations.

Kale Caesar Salad with Cannellini Beans and Parmesan Crisps

This salad is inspired by a classic Caesar salad with chicken, and is instead made with kale and sautéed beans. The parmesan cheese crisps give the salad a satisfying crunch that takes the place of croutons in the traditional salad. For more details on making the Caesar salad dressing, visit the complete recipe here.

Seared Steak with Butter, Herbs and Garlic

Steak is a favorite of many and simple to prepare at home. I like to use this technique to cook New York strip steak, but other cuts such as rib-eye or chuck-eye steak will also work. Do your best to purchase the best cut of steak you can afford, and consider thinking of it as a component of your meal rather than the main dish.

Oat Groat Salad with Fennel and Orange

Everyone knows what oatmeal tastes like, but did you know you can eat whole oat groats too? They are a perfect choice for savory grain salads because they are firm and slightly chewy, and hold up well to a tangy vinaigrette.

AIP Basil Pesto

Basil pesto is such a classic and pairs wonderfully with so many foods. I like to add it to roasted chicken or vegetables, add it to frittatas or eggs, or mix it into spaghetti squash or zucchini noodles. This version is made without nuts or parmesan cheese, so it is good for many following some of the more restrictive diets.

Baked Spaghetti Squash Casserole

I developed this recipe by accident one day after overcooking a batch of spaghetti squash and it quickly became a favorite fall side dish! This is a great way to serve spaghetti squash if you ever accidentally overcook it, but can also be made with regularly cooked spaghetti squash.

Basic Grilled Chicken

Make a big batch of this basic grilled chicken to use throughout the week on salads, to top soups, or to make grilled chicken and lettuce wraps. You can change up the flavors by replacing the dried Italian herbs with an equal amount of another dried herb such as dill or thyme, or you can replace it with 1 to 2 tablespoons of finely chopped fresh rosemary. You can also replace the lemon juice for lime juice and replace the dried herbs with 1 teaspoon of chipotle chili powder, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, and 1 teaspoon of ground cumin for a southwestern style grilled chicken.
