Oatmeal-Spice Shortbread Cookies

Happy Winter Solstice! Today is the darkest day and the longest night of the year in the Northern hemisphere. It is a time of pause and reflection; a time to clear space for a new year. What do you want to release? What do you want to create for yourself in the coming year? I recently had a conversation with a friend that reminded me of something so simple, yet so foundational to the work I do. With every bite of food, we are choosing how we want to create ourselves.

Anti-Inflammatory Ginger Coconut Turkey Soup

We all need very easy recipes to stay on track with dietary changes. I have found that the number one thing necessary to maintaining any healing diet is to be able to easily throw together nutrient-dense meals in minutes. Having easy recipes that contain a balance of vegetables, protein, and fat will help you maintain your diet and heal. It's easy to grab what's convenient when you are hungry, and that's why I recommend stocking your fridge with a snack to help curb those cravings, as well as a few soups or stews that you can reheat for lunch, and keep recipes like this one on hand that can be prepped and cooked in less than 30 minutes.

Kamut and Kale Salad with Lemon Parmesan Dressing

This is the salad to make during the chilly winter months when you want a salad but are also in need of a cozy meal. It is hearty and packed with nutrition on its own, but some baked chicken can be added for another boost of protein. It makes the perfect meal prep salad, as the robust kale and kamut hold up well to the acidic dressing for a few days in the refrigerator.

Gluten-Free Chicken and Dumplings

Chicken with dumplings is a classic Southern recipe, however, dumplings are generally thought to have originated in Germany. Dumplings are traditionally made from flour, milk, butter, and sometimes eggs, and then boiled in broth or water. These gluten-free dumplings are simmered for a few minutes in a pot of homemade chicken soup for a nourishing family meal! I prefer to use sprouted garbanzo bean flour because it is more mild-flavored and is more digestible compared to the regular non-sprouted version of the flour.
