Recipes

As a naturopathic doctor, one of my great joys is creating gut-soothing recipes tailored to the dietary needs of my patients.

I take inspiration from beloved flavors and dishes, then carefully select ingredients that are anti-inflammatory, easy to digest, and rich in nutrients to support digestive health.

 

My passion for cooking emerged from a desire to help my patients struggling with IBD, IBS and other GI issues recover the joy of eating. Navigating food sensitivities can make mealtimes feel restrictive, so I love inventing recipes that are as nourishing and crave-worthy as they are gentle on sensitive digestive systems. Patients are often surprised how delicious and satisfying a gut-friendly plate can be!
 

When developing new recipes, I hold myself to high standards - they must check every box: anti-inflammatory, packed with bioavailable nutrients, free of common triggers, easy on digestion, and full of complex flavor.

My greatest reward is hearing how much patients look forward to meals because the recipes bring comfort, joy and excite their palate, all while optimizing their gut health. Helping patients rediscover their love of food is healing in itself.
