notes from an autoimmune kitchen
In all honesty, the method for making this recipe is weird. The end result, on the other hand, is anything but. This Self-Saucing Chocolate Pudding is my new favourite dessert, and it’ll soon be yours!…

When I take on a new client, part of the intake process is to gather a food journal. I like to have a full week’s worth to get as clear a picture as possible, because often people eat very differently over the course of a weekend, than they do throughout the working week. Done properly journaling can really accelerate your healing so start the year afresh, download my free Food Journal template below, and prepare to see some positive results.…
Contrary to popular belief, the Autoimmune Protocol is NOT a predominantly meat-based diet. In fact it’s vegetables that should be the heavy hitter, making up 3/4 of your plate. But if veggies are becoming tiresome and a little on the repetitive side, have I got a treat for you. This fennel, broccoli and leek gratin is a must have vegetable side dish. And if you’ve reintroduced cheese (stage 3) I’ve got you covered on that too!…
Seeing as we’re getting close to the upcoming release of my Autoimmune Protocol Reintroduction Cookbook, I want to share some reintroduction recipes here on the blog. AIP is NOT a forever diet after all, and it’s good to have some resources that help you through the reintroductions without handfuls of other competing reintroduction foods at the same time. It’s also helpful for you to have some substitution options in case you haven’t reached this stage in the reintro process yet. Notice I said YET. Your time will come friend!…
My new favourite, this Chocolate Beet Cake is a rich, decadent and highly nutritious treat.…

This post is updated from the original written in December 2017, because I’ve added a version for cacao which is a Stage 1 reintroduction. If you’re still in the elimination phase, don’t worry there are still three AIP compliant chocolate bars to make.…
Chicken thighs make me so happy. They’re a cheaper purchase than breasts, have a lot of flavour and retain their juiciness, especially if you choose them bone-in. They’re also more nutritious than the white meat. In fact when I roast a whole bird, I’ll always make sure to share out the brown meat along with the white so we all get to benefit from this succulent part.…
This “cheesy” ham and pasta bake is my new favourite weeknight dinner. And once you’ve made it, it’s going to be yours too! The recipe is AIP and Paleo compliant and I’m going to throw in some reintroduction modifications and Low FODMAP options for you, in case you want to switch it up a bit.…
