delish & nutrish recipes

but first, a little chef chat

If you’re considering increasing your nutrition through food, reducing inflammation, or just a delish and nutrish recipe or two, you’ve come to the right place! Most of these recipes can be made in about 30 minutes, faster than it takes for delivery to show up, and less expensive!

  • “Don’t remember ingredients, remember techniques.” Is something a chef I worked for used to say. So be sure to carefully follow the Methods for each recipe. Anyone can read a list of ingredients. Assembling them properly is the key to great results!

  • If you want to substitute flavors, say you like basil better than oregano, or you’re out of thyme (pun intended), go for it!

  • Some of my favorite tools are a scale, portion scoops, and one or two sharp knives. Try these links for some of my favorite things.

  • I give you measurements for all of the recipes and occasionally drop in the weights for accuracy. (pounds or ounces).

  • Finally, please feel free to leave comments on each recipe you try, and be sure to share and tag me on social media! I answer each and every question, and I love your feedback!

When I set out to find, let’s say for example, a breakfast sausage with no sugar. It’s nearly impossible. And I don’t understand why it’s so difficult to make sausage without sugar. This recipe will have you making your own with little effort and great results.

Chunky Chocolatey Grain-Free Granola

Some times in the mornings I just miss yogurt, berries and granola. I don’t eat yogurt these days because, well, dairy, and granola because it typically contains oats and other grains I have sworn off for good. This grain-free chunky chocolatey granola is so satisfying that you’ll probably find yourself snacking on it. Don’t feel bad, it’s full of protein, healthy fats and so many nutrients from the nuts.

Pumpkin Porridge

I’m still waiting on the jury (i.e., other Whole30 coaches) to weigh in on whether this recipe violates the Pancake Rule (aka SWYPO) but I’ll post it anyway, because it’s so darn good! Note: If you’re not a pumpkin fan, just omit it and the pumpkin spice. It’s very good topped with fresh berries and a squeeze of fresh lemon, too!
