Quick and Easy Breakfast (or lunch or dinner)

The key to maintaining any kind of diet or lifestyle is making it easy (or at least not seeming like its a ton of work). I do love to cook more elaborate, fancy things, but a lot of the time you really need something you can just throw together in 10 minutes. These are aContinue reading “Quick and Easy Breakfast (or lunch or dinner)”

Nut Milk

Starting the anti-inflammatory diet I have been mostly just drinking water, but occasionally almond milk or coconut milk. I don’t really like the texture of most of them, and they generally have added sugar and flavor, so when one of my friends mentioned that she makes her own almond milk I was intrigued. I hadContinue reading “Nut Milk”

Curry Crackers

I forgot to take prep pictures, but will add next time I make them, which is about weekly. These crackers are my favorite way to use the nut pulp left over from making nut milk (recipe to come soon, but essentially 2 cups water to 1 cups nuts, 3-4 dates and 1/4-1/2 tsp of salt;Continue reading “Curry Crackers”

It also pairs nicely with the Rosemary Venison or my take on Chicken Marbella. Ingredients: EqualContinue reading “Blueberry, Beet, Fennel Salad”

And simple too, which is key. Ingredients: salmon about 1/4 to 1/3 lb per person, arugula, red leaf lettuce or spring greens, eggplantContinue reading “Salmon Bruschetta”

Tofu Scramble

Many say breakfast is the most important meal. It is the foundation of your day, and can be key to getting your metabolism and energy going. And it should account for a good portion of your daily calories (about 30% or so). Having a good mix of protein to nourish and healthy fat to keepContinue reading “Tofu Scramble”

Anti-inflammatory Adventure

Taking care of people in Boulder, I have a lot of patients who have gone gluten free or dairy free or something-else-free, not because they are allergic but because they just feel better. It makes sense…a lot of what causes disease, asthma, allergies, chronic pain, gastrointestinal disease, is related to an overactive inflammatory response, andContinue reading “Anti-inflammatory Adventure”
