AIP Kitchen Tour – February 2017

  AIP Kitchen Tour is a monthly feature in which we profile a member of the AIP community and their kitchen setup in hopes that it will further inspire us to get our kitchens organized and set up for success! We’ve interviewed folks who are making the AIP lifestyle a reality in everything from college dorms and small city apartments, to large households with non-AIP family members, and everything in between. Through these ...

Six Alternatives To Coffee While on The Autoimmune Protocol

  Why is coffee avoided while on the Autoimmune Protocol? One of the most commonly missed eliminations during the Autoimmune Protocol is, you guessed it… coffee! But why? Well, to start we avoid all seeds during a Core AIP elimination phase (NOTE – seeds are not avoided in Modified AIP, which is cool! Read more about the differences in my AIP elimination phase guide). This ...

Beef and Mushroom Carbonara

  Well, Happy New Year! I feel like I need to acknowledge that we turned the calendar page in my first contributor recipe of 2017. Does anyone else feel like this year is going to be full of opportunity and blessings? There’s something about the number 17.

I come by this honestly . . . one of my first high school jobs was at a pizza place. Unfortunately, the whole ensemble that makes pizza a pizza is hard to recreate on AIP. Over time, I’ve stopped fretting over that and ...

AIP Stories of Recovery – January 2017

Each month a new person is featured and readers have the opportunity to discover all the different health challenges that are being overcome by folks just like themselves on the same path.

AIP “Bulletproof” Style Dandelion/Chicory Coffee

I’ve been searching for a morning beverage that gives me that “mmmm…. coffee” feeling for literally six years since working as a barista in Seattle, and this definitely fits the bill! It can be made in a French press coffee maker, or steeped in any contraption you’d use to make loose-leaf tea. For the blending component, you can either use a regular or immersion blender ...
