A go-to salad of mine I’ve made for years now. It comes together quickly and is packed with fiber. Fiber helps to turn off hunger hormones, balance blood sugar and supports healthy detoxification. Makes enough to have for a days in a row - win win!

I love a hearty layered salad with a good crunch and a high fiber content. In the winter months, I prefer a slightly warmed salad or salads without a bed of greens. I really enjoy having a salad like this that only gets better as it sits in the fridge. It’s super crunchy from the pistachios and cucumbers and the recipe is flexible so you can adjust it to the produce you have on hand.

I can still remember walking through the Financial District in the city with a winter coat on and enjoying a pumpkin spice latte with my then boyfriend. I wouldn’t order one from Starbucks today because of the blood sugar spike it would cause. This smoothie is a total “taste the season” drink but it’s loaded with nutrition instead of sugar. You can have this for any meal of the day. It contains protein, fat and fiber to round out a meal :)

This banana bread is ooey gooey GOOD! Banana bread has been in heavy rotation because my daughter loves to make it so you can say I’ve become a bit of an expert ;) I think this is my best version yet! The avocado in the recipe makes it extra moist and delicious.

They contain oats, flax and walnuts which are all nourishing foods for milk production. My body liked the combination of carbs and fat to cookies supplied for milk production. Great for nursing mamas or anyone that loves choc chip cookies!
