Halibut and Potato Chowder

Chicken soup with dumplings is a classic meal that has its origins in Germany. Growing up, my mother would make large pots of chicken soup with dumplings all winter long, using the lengthy process of slow-cooking a whole chicken to make a nourishing broth, and then removing the meat for the soup and adding spoonfuls of the dumpling dough to the simmering broth. I still remember standing at the stove, watching the dough puff up as it cooked in the broth! My German maternal grandmother also made incredible dumplings with a variety of different beef and chicken stews for my mother and her siblings growing up. Dumplings are typically made from flour, butter, milk, and baking powder, and are added to the simmering broth or soup at the end of cooking. My recipe below uses several different gluten-free flours, eggs, and water for a simple dairy-free and gluten-free dumpling.

This flavorful green soup uses simple ingredients to create a nourishing meal that can help support natural detoxification. It is designed for Phase 1 of our Elimination Diet, but of course is a wonderful addition to your weekly meal planning even if you are not on the elimination diet! The Elimination Diet is not a diet that tells you what is good for you and what is not. It is a process that helps you discover what foods work best for you. We are all unique. There is no one way of eating or one perfect diet that is right for everyone. Even Hippocrates noticed this well over 2000 years ago.

Bone broth may be trending now, but this traditional food has been a staple in ancestral kitchens for centuries. Simmering bones with vegetables, herbs, and a splash of acid yields a deeply flavorful, mineral-rich broth that nourishes from the inside out. It’s more than just a base for soups and stews—it’s a healing tonic for the gut, the immune system, and the nervous system.

It's autumn. The harvest is in. The fires are lit. The chill in the air invites simmering soups and stews in the kitchen. This nourishing, harvest vegetable soup recipe uses some common fall vegetables and some that you might not use that often like celeriac and rutabagas. I've created a detailed photo below to help you identify some of these vegetables when shopping. I've used both beef stew meat and cooked beans in this recipe so use whatever works best for your body! This recipe makes a large batch of soup. You will need a large pot that is at least 9-quarts in size. You can of course easily cut this recipe in half for a smaller batch.

Spring is in the air, at least for those of us on the West Coast! With the season’s fresh produce making its way to markets, I’ve been enjoying a simple dairy-free asparagus soup that I think you’re going to love. The creamy, herb-infused raw cashew-dill topping adds a delicious touch, but don’t worry, if you’re allergic to cashews, the soup is just as delightful without it! Did you know that asparagus is a powerhouse for gut health? It’s an excellent source of inulin, a type of prebiotic fiber that feeds beneficial gut bacteria like bifidobacteria and lactobacilli. A thriving gut microbiome means better nutrient absorption, enhanced immunity, and protection against harmful pathogens.
