Nourishment with Real Food

With how much that is out of our control these days, one thing you can personally control is what you put in your body!

Sugars and empty carbohydrates can actually increase your body’s inflammatory response, leading to not just increased pain, stiffness, and achiness, but also enhanced feelings of stress, anxiety, and depression.

During this already stress-filled time, it’s important to continue to feed your body nutrient-dense foods. Also, cooking can be very therapeutic! 😊

One of our favorite and simple salad dressings is just three simple ingredients:

This will be enough for a good size salad for one, can double/triple the recipe if serving more.
