I have made a lot of soup in the last seven years. For a long time, I was fine with a simple soup of onions, chicken, stock soup over and over and over…until I wasn’t! I longed for soups that were full of flavors and textures and that were interesting to my body but still …
This meal is very versatile! It’s a quick, easy, and mobile protein. However, it can also be dressed up to make an elegant dish. (Not pictured today.) You can make sliders as simple as plain ground beef boiled in water or you can add spices to the ground beef mixture before cooking depending on what …
Eggs are a great non-meat protein source. While I usually recommend eating eggs yolks running to preserve the cholesterol on them, sometimes a hard boiled egg is hard to beat! This is a recipe that could easily be doubled or tripled for a party. You can serve it spread on a romaine lettuce leaf, as …
I know from personal experience that eating soups for most or all meals can become routine and unappealing.

Pumpkin is a winter squash but it contains less sugar than most winter squashes, making it ideal for the GAPS Introduction Diet. Pumpkins are also very easily grown so if you’re a beginner gardener looking for an easy first crop or if you only have a small amount of growing space available. While other winter …
This is one of my favorite soups! It’s warm and creamy and so delicious. This soup is easy to make in large or small batches depending on how many servings you need. A small batch requires one small chicken, about 4 lbs, one head of garlic, and one glass baking dish of vegetables. A small …
I recently got half a cow and had a beef tongue in my freezer! I wanted to use all of meat and wanted to give this recipe a try. Turns out – I love beef tongue! Beef tongue is a very delicious dark meat with a rich flavor because of it’s high fat content. It’s …
