Shrimp/Crab Cocktail with Grapefruit & Avocado
Though this is not the most medicinal recipe of the batch, it is a good example of how to enjoy an old family favorite, cleaned up! This recipe adds food medicine benefits like good fats in avocado, the phytonutrients in parsley and celery, and the antioxidants in the citrus. We have swapped out Greek yogurt for mayo (but honestly, I’m ok with a little mayo here too ?). Serves 2.

Nettle are hormone balancing, immune building and so much more, and the rice vinegar provides a boost of probiotics for gut health. Serves 8 as a side dish.

Herbed & Peppered Beef Tenderloin
Buy high-quality grass-fed meat from responsible ranchers and eat less of it. You will appreciate it more, as will your body and the planet. I normally don’t use olive oil when cooking as its health benefits are better unheated; however, the lemon oil is wonderful with the herbs and meat.
