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.

Gluten free, vegan (yet delicious) Zucchini cookies

October 8, 2014 By //  by Whitney Young, ND

With zucchini in abundance this time of year, here is another recipe to try out.

Chewy and delicious!
Chewy and delicious!

This makes A LOT of cookies because when there is too much zucchini you need recipes that call for a lot of zucchini.  They are chewy, moist, and filling.  I have served them to many gluten-eating people (including children) and they ask for another.  That says they are GOOOOD

Zuc cookie ingredients
Oats, zucchini, buckwheat flour, oh yeah!
Zuc cookie batter
It’s a thick batter

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups each: sorghum flour and starch of choice (arrowroot, tapioca, potato)
  • 1 cup buckwheat flour (light or dark)
  • 2 tsp each: xanthum gum and baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 4 cups rolled oats
  • 2 cups quick cook oats (helps with the chewy factor)
  • 1 cup olive oil (you could do coconut oil if you prefer or butter for non vegans)
  • 4 tsp egg replacer whisked into 8 Tbsp warm water (or 4 eggs)
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla
  • 3 cups shredded zucchini (I leave peel on and I squeeze the liquid out through a tea towel or cheese cloth)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 cup raisins

What to do:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F
  • Line 4 cookie sheets with parchment paper
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, starches, xanthum gum, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda.
  • Stir in the oats
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the egg replacer and water.  Add the olive oil, vanilla, and sugar.  Mix in the zucchini.
  • Add wet ingredients to the dry and combine.
  • Mix in the chips and raisins.
  • Using a tablespoon, drop batter onto parchment paper.  These cookies don’t spread a whole lot so you can fit quite a few on one sheet.
  • Bake in the centre of a hot oven for about 15 minutes (the bottoms and edges will start to brown)
  • This makes 5-6 dozen cookies. They freeze very well for future enjoyment.

Asparagus Soup

June 4, 2014 By //  by Whitney Young, ND

1 tbsp of coconut oil

3 green onions, sliced – fresh from the garden!

3 small red potatoes, cubed– organic preferred

¾ of a bunch of asparagus, cleaned, broken into pieces

1 quart of organic chicken broth

½ cup of water

 

Melt coconut oil in soup pot over medium heat

Saute onions in pot

Add red potatoes, chicken broth, and water, bring to boil

Add asparagus when potatoes almost tender.

Blend with hand blender, food processor or blender. I kept the tips out of the blender step (that’s why you see chunks in the soup pot!)

Enjoy!

Yummy Vegan Alfredo Sauce

May 16, 2014 By //  by Whitney Young, ND

I found this easy and very quick pasta sauce that you can make in 5 minutes. It’s dairy and gluten-free so it’s great for the Elimination Diet. My whole family loves it! Here is a picture of last night’s dinner.

Vegan Alfredo Sauce

INGREDIENTS [YIELDS 12 OZ. SAUCE]

1 c. coconut milk [the canned kind] 1/2 c. nutritional yeast
1 medium clove of garlic
1 tsp. dried basil
1 tsp. sea salt
1/2 tsp. fresh ground black pepper

Mince the garlic and add all of the ingredients to a blender. Blend until the consistency is smooth and creamy – you know, like alfredo sauce. Pour it over any pasta you’d like and warm quickly with the rest of your hot pasta and other toppings.

This week, I added broccoli to my boiling pasta and cooked diced chicken at the very end. My pasta choice is a rice and quinoa pasta I found at Costco. I suppose the whole meal isn’t vegan but the sauce is so enjoy!

Yummy Parsnip Chips

April 8, 2014 By //  by Whitney Young, ND

I bought a few too many parsnips last week so I decided to try out some parsnip chips knowing I really like kale chips.

I used my new fancy vegetable peeler I got from a Pampered Chef party. It easily peels off thin layers perfect for chips. They were really good! They had a nice, sweet flavour with that satisfying crunch you need for late night snacking. Here is how I made them.

Parsnip Chips

Ingredients:

  • 1 Parsnip
  • Olive oil
  • Sea salt
  • Pepper
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Take the first layer off of the parsnip with the peeler and discard. Then peel the rest of the parsnip onto a cookie sheet.
  3. Pour some olive oil and massage into the parsnip peels.
  4. Season with Salt and Pepper
  5. Cook about 20 minutes, tossing every 7 minutes or so. Cook until mostly browned and crispy.
  6. Make a heaping small bowl.

Strength People used to tell me I was so strong. Strength 

People used to tell me I was so strong. 

But to me it was just getting up and putting one foot in front of another. 

I did it for my kids. And I also did it for that tiny flicker of hope that was inside. That hope that things would one day be different and I would feel better. 

Lately I’ve been needing that strength again. 

These uncertain times. The unpredictable nature of our everyday lives has been taking a toll on my mental health again. 

Again I need to turn to that tiny flicker of hope. That one day things will be different. 

You are stronger than you think. You are.
Picky Eater Tip Choose a fun way or container to Picky Eater Tip

Choose a fun way or container to serve the food. 

Here we did a tea party for lunch on my grandmothers china. 

When they were younger I would use ice cube trays and put little nibbles of food in each hole. 

What about a picnic on the floor? 

How about eating breakfast for dinner? 

What about a bowl sandwich? All the good stuff without the bread?

Sometimes switching up the environment or what they are eating on can help. 

Save this for later to remind yourself to switch things up. 😊

I’m feeling such gratitude right now. I’m so l I’m feeling such gratitude right now. I’m so lucky I love what I do. I’m so fortunate to have amazing women trust me with their fertility, their health, and then their baby’s health. 

During this past year of fear and uncertainty, many people have turned to gratitude practices to cope. 

🙏🏻

Research shows that when we express gratitude, our brains release dopamine and serotonin - happy hormones.

🙏🏻

Other studies have shown that people who have regular gratitude practices are healthier, happier, and have better relationships. 

🙏🏻

Why not add this to your morning or evening routine? Write down 3 different things you are grateful for. And if you want more support for your mental health, I’m here for you. I’ve got many natural tools in my toolbox to help. 

I’m here for you.

I polled my mom tribe (link in bio if you want to I polled my mom tribe (link in bio if you want to join us on Facebook), and asked them what they want more of in 2021.⁠
⁠
These moms want more health, laughter, love, and money. But most of all, they want more joy. ⁠
⁠
This past year saw a rise in more mental health issues. 50% of Canadians reported their mental health worsened. 1 in 10 said it had worsened "a lot" because of Covid-19.⁠
⁠
So, of course you want more joy. ⁠
⁠
How are we going to get it?⁠
⁠
I'd like you to find 10 minutes in your day. 10 little minutes to plug into your joy. Your first day you can write down the things that used to bring you joy or that currently do. The next day you can try one of those things. ⁠
⁠
What little thing can you do tomorrow that will bring you a little joy?⁠
