Gutsy By Nature
If your favorite way to eat broccoli is smothered in cheese sauce, then this recipe is for you! It is dairy free, but is a pretty good AIP-friendly representation of the cheddar broccoli soup… though much more nutrient dense. The yellow color comes from vitamin A rich butternut squash and optional nutritional yeast adds both […]
Ready to travel the world – culinarily speaking, anyway? This hearty Irish stew is just a preview of the adventures that await you in a brand new AIP cookbook that I’m honored to be part of, along with an all-star global cast of AIP recipe creators! The book is called The Global Paleo AIP Kitchen, […]
“Spoon” lamb is a classic preparation that results in meat so tender you can eat it with a… yes, a spoon. Thanks to an Instant Pot, this AIP-friendly version is made in about 2 hours. I know that doesn’t sound like it deserves the label of being “fast” – but compared to the 7 hour […]
Much of the joy of Christmas and the other winter holidays is in the anticipation and preparation for them and that includes baking holiday cookies and candy. If this is your first winter on AIP or another healing diet, you may be thinking that you won’t get to do that this year – but this […]
These gluten-free bagels are so much like the real thing, you just might think you are dreaming. The pumpkin and cranberry flavor is just a bonus on top of the perfect bagel density and chewiness! I designed these to be 100% AIP compliant, but I’d be selling them short if I didn’t also try to […]
Not a sardine lover? Join the club! I created this recipe for crispy sardine cakes just for you (and me) so we’d have a more delicious and texturally pleasing way to eat these economical nutritional powerhouses!

This is also the short season when my local Trader Joe’s stocks the purple skinned, white fleshed murasaki sweet potatoes, which make a perfect shepherd’s pie topping when you can’t eat nightshades. All about […]
This isn’t a post about AIP Thanksgiving food. If that’s what you are looking for, please don’t quit reading yet because chances are good that this conversation applies to you also, especially if you are gearing up for your first Thanksgiving while following AIP or any voluntary dietary restrictions.

A restricted diet, even one like AIP which doesn’t allow nightshades or seeds, doesn’t need to be bland… if you are creative with the foods you are able to eat! This innovative daikon radish coleslaw has a complex flavor that is equal parts refreshing, sweet, and intense. Lemongrass and ginger provide the lead flavors, with […]
These precious little sugar pumpkins are irresistibly cute, and tasty too! Stuffed with apples and dried cranberries, they are a trifecta of autumnal flavors packaged into one and seasoned with a bit of bacon. A cross between a dessert and a savory side dish, they would be a lovely addition to a Halloween themed meal […]
