Golden Turmeric Granola | SCD, Paleo, Gluten-Free

Eight Months of silence on this blog and, for the most part, on social media as well. Considering my website primarily focuses on food, I had a bit of a forced break due to a long overdue kitchen renovation.

Creamy White Bean Soup | SCD, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free

It's hard to believe it has been over six months since my last post! I'm sure everyone can relate when I say  these past few months have been quite a journey.
