WWHHYY? Why are most of the lactation cookies filled with inflammatory ingredients such as refined white flour and tons of sugar? I am beyond confused and concerned about this. Lactation cookies are meant to support a breastfeeding mama who needs all the nourishing nutrients so you can provide for her baby. See more below.

Risotto is a classic and if you use nutrient dense ingredients then it can be a healthy and satisfying meal. The key to risotto is continuous stirring which releases starch from the rice and creates creaminess. I love this recipe on a cool night.

This has been my everyday, saving grace staple! King is an organic coffee with 100% organic Ganoderma Spore powder. It tastes amazing and contains anti-inflammatory and mood-boosting properties. I consume 1-3 cups every single day, I bring it with me everywhere I go because I cannot miss a day!

I teamed up with the incredible ladies over at Sweet Laurel. They have an amazing grain-free, health-focused (anti-inflammatory) cookbook that you definitely need to add to your repertoire. If you are ever in Los Angeles you have to treat yourself to one of their goodies. I took this baked churro recipe and made it keto and adapted it a bit, but they are 100 percent responsible for the deliciousness. This recipe is going to be a winner for having people over for a cold night over the holidays.

Dang it’s hot out, with all this heat all I want to do is eat ice cream! So, during COVID I have been working on my ice cream skills. The first 2 rounds I made ice cream scrambled eggs and I still ate it because I spent a ton of time prepping the fresh passionfruit in it. The good news is I recently nailed it with a little help from my favorite alternative bakers over at Sweet Laurel, if you love baking gluten and grain-free they are your girls. Their stuff is amazing and since I am far from a great baker, they help inspire me. This ice cream recipe is simple once you get down the basics. Compared to store-bought ice cream this is so much healthier for you, no fillers, additives, high sugar, artificial flavors etc. I use this ice cream maker and always just keep the insert in the freezer.

Breakfast is a topic that I talk a lot about with my clients. I find that people feel they have to eat breakfast and usually it consists of sugar and carbs when you actually should be eating fat and protein. Do not even get me started on breakfast cereals that people are feeding their kiddos. Have you seen this post, read the first 4 on what companies like Kellogg are doing to harm us and our kids.

This low sugar, keto (high-fat) smoothie is my go to in summer. When I see strawberries at the market I will freeze half for my on the go lunch or snack (depending on my workout). Because of the healthy fats from the coconut, MCT oil and chia seeds, this smoothie keeps you full and satisfied. Cauliflower is my secret to a creamy consistency without the high sugar and carb from the traditional banana used in most smoothie recipes. Try adding a scoop of collagen or protein to up the protein as well.
