Cryotherapy: Healthy or Hype?

May 27, 2016 by Katie Wells

If you live in a big city or follow me on Instagram, you may have heard of cryotherapy. If you haven’t, it is essentially the process of using really low temperatures for medical therapy. This could mean something as simple as sitting in a cold tub or ice bath or using ice on a wound. …

What’s the Deal with Spelt?

May 20, 2016 by Katie Wells

If you’ve looked even briefly into the controversial topic of whether or not to consume grains (see my take here), you’ve probably heard of a “better” choice called spelt.

How to Make Compost Tea

May 9, 2016 by Katie Wells

I’ve heard it said that “gardening is cheaper than therapy and you get tomatoes.” There seems to be some solid science to back up the health benefits of gardening (and to explain why gardeners might live longer as well). Besides the obvious benefits like super-fresh produce and time spent outside, there are some less well-known benefits to …

Grilled Yellow Squash Recipe

May 6, 2016 by Katie Wells

I always look forward to springtime, as the warm weather, gardening season, and fresh produce make me happy and get us out of doors. Though I garden each year, I don’t have the greenest of green thumbs and typically end up with a lot of easy-to-grow veggies like cucumbers, tomatoes, and zucchini or yellow squash. Delicious and …

Homemade Almond Butter Recipe

May 4, 2016 by Katie Wells

Peanut butter is a staple in most American families, but did you know that the peanut is not a nut at all? It is actually a legume and in the same family as beans and soy. Our family avoids most legumes because of the impact they can have on the gut and instead use natural nut butters …

Instant Pot Sweet Potatoes Recipe (With Slow Cooker Option)

May 2, 2016 by Katie Wells

Our garden produced a ton of sweet potatoes last year, so I had to get creative to find ways to use them. We fried them in tallow, baked them in the oven, and even grilled them on low heat on the grill. We even used them as the “noodles” in homemade lasagna (it was delicious!) and made …
