Holiday Breakfast Cookies

You know what one of my greatest pleasures in life is? It’s waking up on a holiday morning and eating something dessert-y, something sort of “naughty” for breakfast with a warm mug of tea while snuggling with my family. There is almost nothing else in this world that brings me as much happiness and simple joy. Having dessert for breakfast isn’t all that easy on ...

Creamy AIP Coconut Milk Chai

  If you love chai, you may be familiar with the Coconut Chai recipe on p. 102 of The Autoimmune Paleo Cookbook. Since that recipe calls for making coconut milk from scratch, I thought I’d post a simpler and quicker (but equally as tasty!) variation here on the blog for anyone looking to save some time. It is perfect to sip on cold evenings now that ...

Maintain Your Social Energy This Holiday Season

The holiday season can be taxing for anyone, but I know from my clients that it’s even tougher on folks with autoimmune disease. Whether it’s grappling with the fatigue symptomatic in any autoimmunity issue or figuring out the details of what to eat while out and about, this season of social gatherings can leave one feeling depleted, frustrated, and isolated. As we head into the ...

Honey-Lime Glazed Salmon

  Were you expecting a holiday recipe this month!? Instead of a decadent Thanksgiving dish, I wanted to share something to help balance out all the turkey, mashed sweet potatoes and pumpkin pie you’ll be eating! Bonus: this recipe will be on your table in 20 minutes or less! I find in the winter seafood gets forgotten about. We embrace grilled salmon and raw oysters ...

The First AIP Certified Coaches

In general, we have consistently focused on at least one big, special project at Autoimmune Wellness every year since beginning our partnership. In mid-2016 we started hatching plans for that one big, special project of 2017 . . . training healthcare providers from many backgrounds on the Autoimmune Protocol and how to effectively integrate it into their practices. We felt 2017 was the right year ...

Maple-Cinnamon Sweet Potatoes

  What kinds of foods do you think of when you think of November? Pumpkin pie, probably. Stuffed turkey and mashed potatoes. Cider or mulled wine, something warm and autumnal to fight off the cold. For a lot of people, candied yams or sweet potatoes covered in brown sugar, butter, and marshmallows were always a staple. These Maple-Cinnamon Sweet Potatoes are my Autoimmune Protocol-friendly answer ...
