Recipe Portal

Here you will find all sorts of healthy recipes with options to add and replace ingredients to suit your specific dietary needs.

I find it really important to mix up your breakfast,
lunch and dinner during the week.

In the winter, I eat lots of soups and stews,
in the summer, I transition to fresher fruits with more smoothies.

Emphasis on Fresh

I am drawn to food in the most natural and organic state
Grown in a sustainable way that does not
harm the environment or the consumer

I understand this may not always be possible,
yet my intent remains to grow my own where possible,
support local farmers and educate others about the
importance of eating locally

Soups & Stews

How satisfying is it to come home on a rainy, cold day and warm your bones with a big bowl of soup?
Here are some of my favorite soups and stews, suitable for beginners and more experienced cooks.

Healthy Entrees

When a soup isn't enough, it is nice to have options for a more filling meal. I find it works best to support digestion when you mix up the styles of cooking: oven roasted, stir fried, blanched, boiled and raw. It is also highly important to bring variety into our diet to get different prebiotic fibers from vegetables.

Alternative Treats

To finish, alternative treats are a guilt-free way to enjoy a dessert or a snack. They contain low sugar, minimal dairy, eggs, yeast and gluten, and this makes them easier for people with sensitive stomachs to digest.

Juicing & Smoothies

Juicing and smoothies may be appropriate for certain people at certain times. I would not recommend going on a raw juicing regiment in the fall or winter, the spring time can be a more natural cleansing time for the body. People with severe GI conditions or aversions to fiber should also take caution in juicing. Smoothies are my summer treat, usually post workout. Smoothies give me the opportunity to sneak in so many nurtient-packed powders.

Substitutes

Are you developing many different food sensitivities and feel stuck in what you can eat? Are you confused over labels? Here you can learn about which substitutes may be appropriate for you at this time.

Remember, when you are working to heal and seal the gut, your ability to digest and absorb nutrients can change over time. A positive attitude and an open outlook to try new ingredients will go a long way to find the right diet for you.
