Granola bar recipe – school safe and gluten free

October 17, 2015 By //  by Whitney Young, ND

I love granola bars but find them very hard to buy. If they are gluten free, they also tend to be nutrition free and school unfriendly.

2015-10-17 12.28.47

So here is a recipe that is fit for the season. Chewy pumpkin granola bars. As a bonus, maple syrup is the only sweetener in them šŸ™‚

Ingredients

  • 1Ā 3/4 cups gluten free rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/4 cup hemp hearts
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips (this could easily be more oats, raisins, more seeds…whatever works for you)
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2Ā tsp of ground cinnamon2015-10-17 11.39.49
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Mix all the dry ingredients together inĀ a medium mixingĀ bowl.
  • Mix wet into a small mixing bowlĀ another.
  • Combine wetĀ and dry ingredientsĀ well so all the oats get coated.
  • Line a 11×8 baking pan with parchment paper (or whatever size you’d like really).Ā  Use enough paper to hang over the sides so that you can pull them out when they are done.
  • Press them down firmlyĀ so they are flat.
  • Bake in the oven for about 20-25 minutes.Ā  Let the bars cool completely before cutting.

Use a large sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut them into bars. Wrap in plastic wrap to freeze for easy and fast snacks.

Veggie Soup with Chicken Broth

May 4, 2015 By //  by Whitney Young, ND

I’m pretty proud of this soup! It really is a homemade soup. The veggies came from my neighbours freezer but really came from his abundant garden last summer. I used some chicken bone broth I made in a slow cooker overnight after a delicious roast chicken dinner one Sunday night awhile ago.

Sprinkle of thyme and oregano

In the mood for a warm cheesy home-cooked lasagna but are trying not to overindulge. This carb-conscious lasagna has solved the timeless struggle of wanting to eat something delicious but not wanting to blow your daily calorie intake in one sitting!

You’re welcome.

This is not only one of the best lasagnas out there for nutritional value but I can assure you it tastes almost too good to be true. Try this for your next Sunday dinner, dinner party, or just because you’re craving it.

  • 2-3 whole zucchinis

Preheat oven to 325˚F. In a skillet, cook the turkey with the garlic and season with salt and pepper. When the turkey is fully cooked, drain excess water and then stir in the tomato sauce and Italian seasoning.

In a separate dish, beat the eggs with the ricotta; add a little salt and pepper and the parsley. Set aside.

Thinly slice the unpeeled zucchinis lengthwise about 1/8 inch thick.

Grease a 9- x 13- inch baking pan and layer the ingredients in the pan; one-third zucchini, salt and pepper; half the meat sauce, one-third of the zucchini, salt and pepper;

All the ricotta, half the mozzarella and Parmesan

Gluten free breaded chicken

April 8, 2015 By //  by Whitney Young, ND

Our patients so often wonder what they can make for their family on a busy weekday. Here is a quick and easy way to get chicken in the oven and have it all gobbled up at the table!

You will need:

  • 3 Tbsp gluten free flour (sorghum, millet, oat, starch, whatever you have)
  • 3/4 cup gluten free bread crumbs
  • 1 cup milk of your choice, dairy or non dairy (water works just fine as well and won’t add any flavour)
  • package of chicken drumsticks, about 12 (this works well with pieces of chicken breast as well)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper

What to do:

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 450
  2. Line aĀ baking sheet with parchment paper
  3. In two medium sized bowls, add the milk to one, add the breadcrumbs, flour, salt and pepper to the other.
  4. Dredge the chicken, piece by piece, first through the milk, then through the bread crumbs and place on the baking sheet.
  5. Place on the centre rack in the oven for 20 minutes. Turn each piece. Cook for another 20 minutes or until no pink remains.
  6. When I do chunks of chicken breast chunks I lower the temp to 375 and check on them after 20 minutes total.

While the chicken is in the oven, make your sides – we tend to steam up broccoli and have rice or barley going in the rice cooker. If you choose rice cooker, start the rice/barley before the chicken or have it set on a timer to be ready when you get home.

Bon apetit!

Dr. Kerri Fullerton ND & Dr. Whitney Young ND

However, I started my journey with baby food with a little bit of fear when my firstborn developed severe allergies to peanuts and tree nuts. Now it's my passion to share with moms how to introduce foods safely and properly to avoid food allergies and sensitivities.

This year I bought golf clubs for my birthday and This year I bought golf clubs for my birthday and decided this was the year I was taking up golf officially. 

It was time to build this skill so I could spend more time with my mom and stepdad. The byproduct is creating new memories with other friends who also like the game and making new friends. 

This Friday we golfed in the 5th annual Mike Gilbertson Memorial tournament. I’ve sponsored a hole for a few years for @carlaynegilbertson and @seasonscentreforgrieving but this is the first year I golfed. It was so much fun for a great cause. I’m excited to see how much the event raised for these special kids. 

What activities do you do to connect with the people you love?

Play isn't just for kids—it's a powerful tool fo Play isn't just for kids—it's a powerful tool for enhancing your well-being at any age. As a naturopathic doctor, I know that integrating play into your routine can lead to a healthier, happier life.

**Physical Fitness:** From sports to dancing, play keeps you moving. It's not just fun – it's a boost for your heart, muscles, and coordination. I've been jumping on the trampoline with my kids, random dance parties, and throwing the ball to our dog-sitting pupils. 

**Stress Relief:** Need to unwind? Play triggers the release of natural stress-busters, helping you relax and recharge.

**Cognitive Stimulation:** Puzzles, games, and creative activities keep your mind sharp. Get ready to boost memory, focus, and problem-solving skills. We love a good board game at my house. What's your favourite?

**Social Interaction:** Play often happens with others, promoting social bonds, better communication, and a sense of belonging.

**Emotional Well-being:** Laughter and accomplishment are byproducts of play. They combat anxiety, depression, and loneliness.

No matter your age, play has a place in your life. As your doctor, I encourage you to embrace play for a healthier you. Remember, the prescription for play is a prescription for a better life. #PlayForHealth #WellnessJourney #naturopathicdoctor #childrenshealth #barrie #playmore
15 years! I graduated from the Toronto naturopat 15 years! 

I graduated from the Toronto naturopathic college @myccnm 15 years ago with the hope of helping as many people as possible.

I’ve been here for over 10 years now.

I’m so grateful for the many people I have worked with and proud of the steps they’ve taken to improve their health. 

Who knows what the next 15 years brings? For now, I’ll mark this moment and celebrate.

Here’s a few of my tips that I use at home to re Here’s a few of my tips that I use at home to remember to take my supplements everyday. 

1ļøāƒ£ put them in the pantry cupboard that is easily accessible and that I open often for other things. 

2ļøāƒ£ Keep them in the door of the refrigerator, not at the back of the fridge, so they don’t get lost. 

3ļøāƒ£ portion out everyday in the morning when I make my lunch to go to work. Therefore, I remember to take my supplements because I’ve paired them with eating lunch or making my lunch in the morning. Thanks to #AtomicHabits for that one.
