SEPTEMBER 2011 INFORMATION ALERT  from the Weston A Price Foundation: IN THE NEWS: KIDS WHO DRINK RAW MILK HAVE LESS ASTHMA, ALLERGIES A large European study has found--once again--that children who drink raw milk have less asthma and allergies.

Grassfed Cows on Amish Farm (courtesy of B. Brown) Recently our Local Amish Farmer has been facing harassment by the FDA. This has been an ongoing issue since about April 2010, when FDA agents raided his private property at 5am, waking his wife and small children and issuing a search warrant. I remember breaking into tears as I read this line as quoted by one of his children asking his momma, "

Fresh Coconut Milk is so creamy and frothy and yummy! Using a fresh coconut, a blender and a little patience you can make this coconut milk- fresh!  It is very cost effective if you can find your coconuts for a decent price! I got this coconut for $1.50 at an Middle Eastern market- you can check your local ethnic markets for great deals on produce!  For $1.50  I got: Coconut Water,  1 qt. Coconut

Watercress is a spring-time perrenial green leafy and member of the brassica (cabbage) family. It has a mildly spicy flavor and is a great mix-in to spring time salads! When the flavor is a little too strong for those first-timer tastebuds- a simple and nourishing soup is a great way to tone down the spice and tang of Watercress. A few noted health benefits to the watercress plant include:

Crispy Soaked Nut Crust on Wild Caught Mahi Mahi This nut crusted white fish is perfect- and its also fun to try different foods to make crusts with besides bread crumbs or wheat flour.   I still eat gluten, but it's great to vary the ways to prepare foods besides relying on wheat flour.

 Pumpkin Custard is a warm treat in a cold season. Squashes, pumpkins and cold storage vegetables keep us vibrant through the winter months.   This custard recipe is flexible and can be made to use-up extra cream or milk.  It's best topped with some fresh whipped cream, or creme fraiche- to add a probiotic bonus to this meal.

Homemade Crepes are a simple luxury. They can be made using nutrient dense ingredients like pastured eggs, whole grass-fed milk and butter, and sprouted or soaked flour.   Frying them flat in coconut oil adds beneficial medium-chain fatty acids which boost metabolism and your immune system.      Crepes are a basic and simple food that can be made into a snack or used as a canvas for any meal!

How to use up egg whites? As a traditional foodie trying to maximize the nutrients in my food, I use a lot of pastured egg yolks!  I use egg yolks in smoothies, and in homemade mayo.    Doing this, I accumulate a lot of egg whites!     I don't want to waste them- so here is a fast delicious treat to make with them!  Not to despair,  they are gluten-free, and made with maple syrup and coconut!  No

What's not to love about artichokes, cheese and spinach?  Mix it all into nourishing dip that everyone will love!  You can enjoy this spread on some sprouted grain tortillas, organic corn chips or even as a spread on sandwiches! Now you can skip the tub of dip at the store- and it's hydrogenated and refined oils- and opt for a homemade nourishing artichoke cheese dip you can easily make yourself

Making Homemade Yogurt can be simple and easy, and save you on your grocery bill!   I'll show you how I make it, and it's the easiest way I've found. I've tried in the crockpot- that was a curdled disaster. This method you leave the jars in a warm place for about 12 hours, and it's all done!   You don't need a fancy yogurt maker, just supplies you have on hand! You will need:Whole Milk,

I'm getting very excited to go to the conference for the first time!   The Conference will be held in King of Prussia, PA, just outside of Philadelphia.   As a Real Food Media blogger, I will be meeting, and joining up with other real food bloggers.  I'm looking forward to meeting all of them who will be there!   Here

Why should you make your own Homemade Ranch Dip?   Did you know that many store bought dressings, dips, and packets contain chemicals, artificial flavorings, preservatives and even food colorings?  (Go to the bottle- check the label- look for monosodium glutamate aka MSG- a known neurotoxin!)  Is this something you would want your children eating as a "healthy" food?    Of course not!

There is a new favorite snack in town.  It's the season for an abundance of apples, and the winding down of soft tree fruits like peaches. Here is a great way to savor them for the season.

Have extra cheese, or milk or cream in your fridge you need to use up?  These are the perfect way to turn nourishing ingredients into a wholesome hearty quick go to meal or snack.  My husband is going to be working long hours for a few days, and needs a quick, hearty grab and go food for meals, so I created a muffin to fill those needs.    It's full of fat soluble vitamins from the milk, eggs,

Over at Nourished Kitchen, there has been a "preserve the bounty" challenge. Week #2's challenge was to preserve using oils and fats.  http://ymlp.com/zKfEYv I found one thing i've had an abundance of is rosemary, and a little less of basil. How delicious would a basil infused olive oil taste on some fresh salad, or tomato-mozzarella slices.  I had a good time making this simple preservation.

This was my first try making English Muffins and they turned out fluffy, and perfect for spreading some butter on warm, or melting some cheese on top!  I was surprised that you "bake" these on a griddle or fry pan!

I made these homemade rolls from the previous batch of bread dough. They actually turned out pretty well! I dusted them with some sesame seeds before 2nd rise to give them a real bun look!

Yes! It's always nice when my bread attempts don't turn into solid bricks! This time I used mostly unbleached bread flour, because I wasn't up for any failures- and because I needed rolls to turn out for burgers that night! I did use one cup of sprouted wheat flour, but not enough to call it wheat bread. Mostly white- I confess!

Just a few facts about whats in fresh Pastured milk vs. what happens to Pasteurized milk:Unpasteurized milk has the enzyme phosphataze that allows the body to absorb the calcium from the milk. This allows for the digestion of lactose. Milk before pasteurization is rich in colloidal minerals and enzymes, which are necessary for the absorption and utilization of sugars and fats in the milk.

This pyramid is an example of a more nourishing food plan. The USDA has recently drafted their new 2010 food pyramid. It limits fats even more (is that possible?) and promotes the commodity foods of big business. When people cut fats out of their diet, it leaves them hungry and unsatisfied wanting cravings for chips, sweets and processed foods. When you cut fats out, you aren't obtaining or

One night we had tacos made from grass-fed beef ($4.00/lb. Using the leftovers, I added soaked black beans, and corn. I heated a pan, added some lard, and heated the whole wheat tortillas (which ideally would be from sprouted wheat, but in this case, they weren't.) I turned the tortilla to heat both sides, then I covered the tortilla with real cheese from grass-fed cows, then filled it with

I wanted to see what real nourishing foods I could find in Wal-Mart so I can help refer people to products that may have limited availability where they live. Nutiva Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil $19.95 for 28 ozThis is a great deal for coconut as many pint sized jars from the health food store run about 12-15 dollars. Nutiva is a great brand from a quality source. Coconut oil is a great

It's a good idea to call your doctor and ask for a Vitamin D blood level test. Vitamin D is one of the few supplements that we *really* do need, most everyone is deficient, especially during the winter months. If you have any ailment, it most likely can be improved by maintaining an optimum vitamin D level. From the Vitamin D Council they state that"Vitamin D targets over 2000 genes (about 10%

Big Fat ProblemTo metabolize fat we need lipoic acid, which is yet another critical vita-nutrient that is poisoned by toxic metals. Failure to properly digest fat is an increasingly common problem and one of the key reasons some people decide that a traditional high-fat diet is “not for them.” Although loss of the ability to digest fat may follow from years on a low-fat diet, this isn’t a simple
