How to Choose a Quality, Gluten-Free Protein Powder
The protein powder aisle can seem to stretch for miles. The many claims and labels on containers can be mystifying and overwhelming. Although these products are not a necessary part of everyone’s diet, protein needs are higher in those with inflammatory conditions and gut damage. In my practice, I consistently find that people are struggling…
Basic Chia Pudding
Recently I wrote about 15 ways to increase fiber on a gluten-free diet, and one of them was to snack on chia pudding. Chia seeds are high in omega-3 fatty acids, minerals, and FIBER. You can throw them in smoothies or baked goods, or mix them together with a milk of choice to make chia…
Easy Turkey & Squash Chili
Cold months call for chili! This Turkey and Squash chili is super easy to pull together. The only chopping you have to do is a little celery and a winter squash, but you could probably use frozen, chopped butternut squash if you wanted to skip that step.

Salted Caramel Raspberry Yogurt Popsicles
Popsicles might just be one of the best things about summer. Cold, semi-portable, and satisfying to any sweet tooth.

Easy Banana Teff Porridge
Teff is a great gluten-free grain option. It’s high in fiber, protein, and minerals such as manganese, calcium, and iron. I see so many clients with low iron levels, and in these cases, the more high iron foods you can add in, the better! Traditionally, teff flour is used to make injera, the Ethiopian flatbread. However,…
Peanut Butter Banana Quinoa Porridge
Cold days continue, and sometimes the best way to pull you out of a cozy bed is the promise of a warming breakfast. Admittedly, I love my breakfast smoothies and continue these alongside a cup of hot tea even in cold months, but for mornings when I wake up feeling very chilled, I’m all about…

This tasty Honey Orange Cake with Vanilla Sweet Potato Frosting is a sunny and bright dessert for the greyest winter days. The orange and vanilla flavors give off major creamsicle vibes, and it’s all gluten-free, refined sugar-free, and dairy-free. The cake itself is not super sweet, and can be eaten by itself or with raspberry…
Warming Squash and Fennel Curry
In the midst of winter, we start running lower on produce that’s actually in season and good-looking. Winter squash, however, are still going strong this time of year! It’s hard to pick a favorite way to use winter squash, but in my Top 5 would probably be curries. How about you? This Squash and Fennel…
