Veggie Tots

While regular tater tots made with russets may be off the menu, AIP Veggie Tots are a healthy alternative that taste absolutely delicious! Unfortunately, it’s difficult to find AIP tots made with unprocessed veggies in grocery stores, because they are often full of inflammatory ingredients including potatoes, flour, and eggs. Luckily, these homemade, AIP Veggie Tots are easy to make with just a few ingredients — plus everything tastes better with fresh vegetables. Once you try these grain-free, egg-free Veggie Tots, they’ll be one of your go-to, healthy snacks.

Chicken and Mushroom Stroganoff

If you are craving flavor, this Chicken and Mushroom Stroganoff does the trick! This is my take on a traditional stroganoff with the benefit of gut-repairing bone broth. You can cook a whole chicken if you are feeling ambitious, but you can use a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken from your local grocery store to save time.

Corn-Free Arepas

If cornbread and tortillas had a baby, it would look a bit like an arepa. However, arepas predate both cornbread and tortillas, and have been a popular dish in Colombia and Venezuela since the pre-Columbian days. The recipe for arepas has remained the same for centuries. Traditionally, arepas are made from a ground maize (corn) dough and fried or grilled in oil. These crispy yet soft discs are the perfect canvas for meat, vegetables, and sauces, meaning that the possibilities are practically endless for meals and snacks using arepas.

Gut Healing Chicken Bone Broth

Homemade bone broth is a fantastic source for several gut-healing, anti-inflammatory components. Pasture-raised and grass-fed animal bones and joints are rich in amino acids, collagen, and gelatin, all of which support healthy bones, joints, and skin — some of the most important and largest parts of your body!

Sleepy Time Tea

Drinking a cup of herbal tea before bed is a fantastic way to ease into a restful night. In traditional folk medicine, chamomile tea is used to promote relaxation and reduce stress. It contains apigenin, an antioxidant that may support and initiate sleep. Additionally, its antimicrobial components help your immune system fight back against invaders!
