Coconut Yogurt Bowl 🍧
Coconut yogurt is a great swap for dairy yogurt if you cannot tolerate milk proteins like my mom and I. If you buy the right kind (only coconut and water + bacterial cultures), it’s a true superfood. We love the Cocoyo brand which helps us get in our dose of fermented foods 🙌🏻 This isContinue reading “Coconut Yogurt Bowl 🍧”
Bison Brisket Bowl 🦬
I try to eat red meat at least once a day, since it’s chock full of nutrients and healthy fats. One cool thing about red meat is that it is a natural source of carnitine, which is a nutrient that helps shuttle fatty acids into the cell to be burned as fuel! This is soContinue reading “Bison Brisket Bowl 🦬”
Creamy Spinach Salmon Noodles 🍣
This is another great way to incorporate healthy omega fatty acids, coconut milk, and greens which are all superfoods and important to manage inflammation and optimal body function 💪🏻 The shirataki noodles (or other pasta swap) bring the whole thing together and soak up the sauce real nicely 😍 I love to get my salmonContinue reading “Creamy Spinach Salmon Noodles 🍣”

Lox “Bagel” Style Flatbread 🍣
When I still ate bread, one of my favorite brunch items was a bagel with cream cheese and smoked salmon 😍 Luckily I can still eat smoked salmon, which is packed with essential fatty acids and bioavailable protein, and I have found a great cream cheese swap to top my grain free flat-bread (check outContinue reading “Lox “Bagel” Style Flatbread 🍣”
Chicken Burrito Bowls 🐓
Seasons are changing which means that we change the way we eat too, based on temperature and what we have available! On warmer days like today, we love to make bowls with different textures and flavors 🤪 This one is inspired by the burrito bowls at Chipotle, although modified a bit of course 😋 SinceContinue reading “Chicken Burrito Bowls 🐓”
Almond Butter Cups 🍫
If you’re an ooze lover like me, these will not last long 😇 The cold crisp white chocolate encases the creamy almond butter, and a cocoa dusted almond gives it an irresistible crunch! As always, this recipe is chock full of healthy fats like cacao, coconut, or optionally ghee, and of course almond! Since it’sContinue reading “Almond Butter Cups 🍫”
