I simplify my personal meals during this mini season between gatherings, events and celebrations. Simple whole food sides are a form of self love and sometimes a full mono meal.
I bring a simple, whole foods dishes to gatherings. They are time savers, stress reducers and super foods! Believe it or not, it starts a lot of conversations. One of my all time favorites is Roasted Rosemary Sweet Potatoes.
ONLY 2 main ingredients

WHOLE FOODS SUPPORT
When I work with my patients, we co-create wellness plans. We are dynamic and our needs change as we change. These are best modified every season. I spoke with one of my patients this week regarding her prescription. She was astonished that her prescription provided such an immediate change in her energy levels. What was it? A whole foods multi-vitamin.
She was curious if they also made them for men for her husband. Yes! They do and the kids. All supplements are not created equal. My professional Fullscript pharmacy provides practitioner grade, highly vetted support direct to your door.

Eat local and organic when possible, particularly thin skinned fruits and vegetables. When not organic, soak in a ratio of 1 tsp baking soda: 2 cups purified water. Soaking 12-15 minutes is ideal. Gently scrub thick skinned fruits and vegetables. Rinse with fresh water.
1. Cranberry-Orange Relish
Cut one large, sweet orange into 1/8s. Deseed. Place orange (yes skin and all) into powerful blender (blend-tech, vitamix) or food processor. Chop by pulsing blades. Stir as required to chop ingredients. Add honey or stevia if more sweetness is desired. 1 tablespoon of fresh ginger may be added as an extra digestive zing! Process in batches if necessary.
Boil 1 cup fresh cranberries in 3-5 cups water until they rise to the top and start splitting. Drain and sweeten with raw honey, maple syrup or stevia. Drink. Retain berries for smoothie or relish.
Proanthocyanidins (PACs), the most abundant flavonoids extracted from red cranberry fruits, have been reported to possess antimicrobial, antiadhesion, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22082264/) positive research on UTI and periodontal disease and prostate cancer invites us to eat them all season long.
