Chili in a Hurry (with Vegan Option)

When I’m in a hurry or feel overwhelmed, this is one of my “go to” recipes! With only 5 minutes of prep work, I can feed my family a nutrient dense, filling meal. And it’s so versatile! Choose your beans, spices, and protein source based on your body’s needs!

For example, you can add beef, turkey, chicken, or pork. Alternatively, turn the chili vegan by adding more vegetables, such as: butternut squash or sweet potato. Bulk it up with red bell peppers, carrots, celery, or whichever vegetables you desire or have laying around in the kitchen.

I particularly enjoy this chili on cold days when I crave warming foods.

Soft Gingerbread Cookies

You know how chefs have signature dishes? This is my “signature cookie!”

These gingerbread cookies are so soft and tasty that your friends won’t know they are grain-free and packed with a prebiotic! In fact, my kids love these cookies so much that I have to hide them in the freezer or they will be devoured in one day! Ha!

I’ve provided 2 recipe options below. One option mimics a typical gingerbread cookie. I recommend choosing this first option when sharing these cookies with friends and family. The second option is a “medicinal cookie,” which contains less sugar and more healing nutrients.

Creamy Mango Avocado Salad Dressing with Orange Zest

This salad dressing is perfect for summer! It is creamy yet light while adding healthy fats to my diet. The orange zest makes this dressing pop!

As always, choose organic when possible and ask your body if it wants each ingredient.

Personalize your diet based on your body’s individual needs. Before adding each ingredients, ask your body if it wants that specific ingredient. If not, leave it out. If it does, ask how much it wants.

Mango Guacamole (Creamy or Chunky)

This guacamole is a family favorite! It’s nutrient dense, packed with flavor, and takes less then 10 minute to make!

I sometimes eat this guacamole by the spoonful. I also turn carrots or cucumber slices into “healthy chips” and use them as “guacamole delivery vehicles.” : )

Chicken Seasoning Mix

To save money in the kitchen, I buy spices and herbs in bulk and create my own seasoning mixes. This strategy also allows me to personalize my seasoning mixes based on my body’s individual dietary needs. This is one of my favorite seasoning mixes for roasted chicken.
