Moroccan Lamb and Greens with Lemon-Tahini Drizzle

When you are running low, feeling inflamed, and dealing with a health condition—or simply wanting to change your diet to eat more nutrient-dense foods—you may not have the time or energy to cook anything elaborate. In fact, when you’re under the constant pressure of inflammation, autoimmunity, or even chronic stress, it can be very difficult to consistently prepare nourishing meals for yourself. But ironically, this is when your body needs them the most. Meals during this time need to be simple and nutrient-rich. Returning to balanced, nourishing food—day after day—slowly helps bring your body back into alignment. Lamb is particularly rich in iron, zinc, selenium, and vitamins B12, B2, and B3—fueling methylation pathways, mitochondria, and hundreds of biochemical reactions involved in detoxification, energy, and nervous system health.

Spicy Slow Cooked Beef Stuffed Sweet Potatoes with Avocado-Cilantro Cream

I really love being able to toss ingredients into my slow cooker in the morning in order to have a meal ready to go later in the day, don't you? There's just so much less stress, and I feel so organized, with a clean kitchen going into dinnertime! This recipe for tomato-free, paleo slow cooked beef can be used in a multitude of ways. If you don't want to stuff it into baked sweet potatoes then you could use it as a taco filling for corn tortillas, Brown Rice Flour Tortillas, or simply served with sautéed kale and cabbage!

Smoked Salmon and Yam Salad with Creamy Chipotle-Lime Dressing

Today I'm going to share with you a recipe from my brand new cookbook! This creamy "potato" salad is so full of flavor and packed with protein (from the salmon) and complex carbohydrates (from the yams) to keep you fueled throughout the day. I like to serve it over salad greens for an easy lunch. For those of you who don't eat fish, I also have a vegan variation using black beans which is equally as good.

Grain-Free Chocolate Mini-Cupcakes with Sweet Potato Frosting

I thought these healthy gluten-free chocolate cupcakes with bright orange frosting looked quite festive for halloween. You could even offer them to your children in exchange for their candy loot! My children normally go trick-or-treating and then come back home and give most of their candy away to the last of the trick-or-treaters.

Yam Casserole with Pecan Streusel Topping (Grain-Free)

This is my healthier take on the traditional Thanksgiving yam casserole recipe. It has a delicious grain-free crumble topping made from ground pecans, a little arrowroot, coconut sugar, cinnamon, and real butter. I think the topping would also work on an apple or pear crisp/crumble. It could also be the streusel topping to an apple pie.
