Gluten-Free Brown Rice Flour Tortillas

Making your own gluten-free brown rice flour tortillas is so simple! With just a few ingredients you can make healthier tortillas at home. My recipe is egg-free and xanthan gum-free as well. I use a cast iron tortilla press to quickly press all of the tortillas, and then I cook them in a hot cast iron skillet on my stovetop. If you don't own a tortilla press you can roll the dough in between two pieces of parchment paper using a rolling pin. I've made so many versions of this recipe to try to figure out the best method for getting flexible tortillas.

Cucumber Kale Cleanser  (aka "Green Juice")

There’s something deeply symbolic about sipping a vibrant green juice at the start of a new year. It’s not just a beverage—it’s a reminder that each nourishing choice we make has the power to shift our energy, brighten our cells, and support the path back to wholeness. This is one of my favorite green juice recipes. It's mild, refreshing, and even kid-approved—my children absolutely love it. Try serving it in a beautiful glass with a stainless steel or glass straw to make the experience feel special. Whether you’re beginning a new healing protocol or simply adding more plant power to your day, this juice is a gentle and energizing way to begin.

Raw Thai Wraps with Cilantro-Pumpkin Seed Pâté and a Dipping Sauce

We have a garden full of vibrant, tender collard greens right now—lush, green leaves that inspired me to create these nourishing raw wraps filled with pumpkin seed pâté and served with a gingery cashew butter dipping sauce. These wraps are a refreshing, plant-powered meal that’s naturally grain-free, gluten-free, and full of flavor and texture. Even my children enjoy them! Well—my 8-year-old thinks they're just okay, and the littlest one prefers to nibble on the pâté and cucumber strips, but the rest of the gang devours them with delight.
