Recipes
Preparing and planning meals for over a decade while avoiding many common foods, I have what I’d call a bit of an obsession with searching for recipes - with an eye on maximizing nutrition. I am far from a culinary whiz but I thrive on finding new recipes for meals (and treats too!) our family will safely enjoy.
Take a look here inside our kitchen, let me know what you find.

A go-to crowd pleaser that's simple to prep and easy to get on the table, ready in under 30 minutes. Add a veggie and a starch and dinner is served.
