Let me just tell you, my husband is not a big dinner eater. He likes to eat a big lunch and a smaller dinner so this was plenty for him and he actually told me that I could give him a little less next time. Squash is one of the most healthiest foods you can eat in so many people overlook them, but we really should be implementing more squash into our diet because they are so full of fiber, vitamins, and polyphenols. I roast my butternut squash whole, then remove the seeds after cooking. I bake in a 400 degree oven for about 1 hour. Years ago, I was craving pizza, but wanted to keep it low-carb so I made a zucchini and ground turkey skillet pizza and it turned out amazing and that’s what I made for my husband tonight. Sauté zucchini, ground turkey, with Italian seasoning (onion and garlic would be good too!). Once they are cooked through top with mozzarella cheese and more Italian seasoning and cover it until the cheese has melted. This is SO GOOD! You can drizzle it with marinara sauce if you like that, but eating it by itself is delicious too. Comment HOME for more of my favorite recipes on my website!

Here’s what Google says: “Social media videos claiming baking soda prevented or cured the 1918 Spanish flu are false and rely on outdated 1920s marketing pamphlets, not scientific proof.” BUT…. I’ll take a testimony like this any day! I’ll link the video for you below, if you want more context. I’m a Bob Red Mills fan for baking soda and purchase it on Amazon in a multi-pack. Comment SODA for the link. Baking soda was a HUGE part of my detox coming off of chemo and I bathed it often! We also use it to control indigestion if necessary. Most importantly, we drink it too, because if this one family escaped the Spanish Flu, while caring and burying the sick, I’ll follow that trend any day!

Tea is one of the simplest ways I add more plant compounds and antioxidants to my routine as a cancer survivor. I especially love fruit leaf teas like mango, avocado, olive and soursop leaf, along with green tea, dandelion root and clove. These teas aren’t cancer treatments, but they are one way I choose to support my body, in hopes of preventing cancer from ever returning. 🌿☕️ Comment FRUIT and I’ll send you more information about the fruit leaf teas I use. #cancersurvivor #homemakeronabudget #healingplants

I highly recommend you read Charlie’s book: Stop In The Name Of God ❤️ *Disclaimer: Charlie does NOT say in his book that women shouldn’t cook on Sabbath. But he challenged us to not work. I cook and create recipes for a living, so for me to separate work from the Sabbath, I have chosen to meal prep and not cook on Sabbath. #charliekirklegacy #sabbathrest #homemakeronabudget

When I’m down in my back, I still want to reach for the healthy foods that nourish my body best. Bone broth miso soup does just that. Add extra protein and veggies if you’d like, but this is the basic recipe. Comment BROTH for my beef bone broth recipe! RECIPE: 2 cups bone broth 1 square of ramen noodles Boil until cooked through. Add in: 1-2 tsp miso 1 tsp sesame oil 1 mince garlic clove (ginger if you have) 1 egg 1 handful spinach Pour the mixture over the noodles and let it sit for three minutes to cook the egg through, no stirring. Pour the soup into a bowl and enjoy! Season accordingly. I also like to serve this with a little kimchi on the side.

When you wake up between 2–3 a.m., it can often be from a drop in blood sugar. When glucose falls too low, your brain releases cortisol and adrenaline to raise it back up, and that surge can wake you. 🍯 A tablespoon of raw honey before bed provides a slow, steady release of glucose through the night, supporting the brain’s energy needs and keeping those stress hormones in check. Sometimes the simplest, most natural remedies really do have science behind them. 🌙💛 Comment SWAPS for a link to my free non-toxic home guide! Follow for more helpful tips!

Comment BREAD to start your sourdough journey today! With almost 1,000 copies sold, women are making delicious long-fermented sourdough goodies in their kitchens too! Sourdough bread is a huge part of our daily diet, but we also love bagels, French toast casserole, pop tarts, pizza and cake! We make them all sourdough. My husband has a pretty severe gluten allergy, not celiac, and the only way that he can enjoy wheat is through the long fermentation process of sourdough. If he has any wheat that is not sourdough, he immediately has a reaction. As he’s gotten older, the symptoms have gotten worse, so I make sure that all of our goodies are sourdough for him. This sourdough chocolate cake is rich chocolatey and has the best texture! Comment BREAD and get started today! Now let’s celebrate 🎉 #cancersurvivor #crosscountrymove #sourdoughcake

One of the biggest things I changed after cancer was how I nourish my gut. 🤎 Bone broth is one of those simple, old fashioned foods I always want in my freezer. It’s rich in gelatin and amino acids and so easy to add to everyday meals. I make a big batch, freeze it into cubes, and pull out exactly what I need. 🙌🏼 Comment BROTH and I’ll send you my beef bone broth recipe. Comment CUBES for the food freezing cubes I use from Amazon! #bonebroth #gapsdiet #cancersurvivor
