Red Cherry Dark Chocolate Crumble

Red Cherry Dark Chocolate Crumble. Need I say more? How about delectable, sweet and juicy, rich and flavorful- okay, okay, I’ll stop there. Is your mouth-watering yet?

During the Summer months, you can find cherries at every street corner and all grocery store entrances. They are the ripest, juiciest, and sweetest during Summer, so I’ve been taking full advantage. Last week, during the 4th of July holiday, you could find me lounging on the boat, snacking on cherries like they were candy. So yummy. 

I’ve been dying all Summer to make a cherry-loaded dessert and I finally buckled down to make it happen. Sweet red cherries + rich dark chocolate sounded like home run to me. And, I have to say, these flavors did not disappoint!

But, before we dive into mouth-watering goodness, I have a few recipe notes/suggestions:

I encourage you to pick up fresh, local cherries at your local farmer’s market. Because, well, they’re just that much better. If you only have a grocery store accessible, that’ll do just fine, too! 

For the crumble, I highly recommend using soaked, steel cut oats- especially, if you have trouble digesting grains or are following a paleo diet! I used One Degree Sprouted Steel Cut Oats from Amazon, but you can always soak the oats yourself. Also, steel cut oats provide the perfect consistency, so I don’t advise substituting other oats here. 

Alright, now to the good stuff!

Paleo Cherry Chocolate Cobbler

This Paleo Cherry Chocolate Cobbler is made with dark chocolate and juicy red cherries. Without refined sugar or flour, this recipe is 100%paleo-approved and gluten-free. It's rich, sweet, and a little tangy!

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm Kelsey! I work as a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner to help you support your body as a whole and address any imbalances. Together, we'll work to find the root cause of your most pressing health concerns and bring restoration to your body. I utilize a food-first approach, as I believe FOOD IS MEDICINE! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You might benefit from working with me, if you're a woman who struggles with:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Hormonal imbalances⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Autoimmunity⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Thyroid and adrenal dysfunction⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Skin problems⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Weight gain⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Gut infections/imbalances⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Digestion issues⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve personally experienced the power of nutritional therapy and using this food as medicine approach, but I’ve also witnessed countless clients experience the same healing. If you no longer want to “mask symptoms” with pills and prescriptions, nutritional therapy might just be the answer for you!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Without a doubt, gluten has gained a bad rap over Without a doubt, gluten has gained a bad rap over the years. So, is it time to eliminate it from YOUR diet?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I won’t lie, gluten is often a food I recommend eliminating from my clients’ diets. But, not ALWAYS and it's never without good reason!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here's the deal:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today’s version of gluten in America is NOTHING like it used to be (or should be). It’s hard- to-digest, packed with anti-nutrients, and extra processed. In other words, it can worsen gut permeability, create nutrient deficiencies, and be hard on the digestive tract. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That being said, ALL gluten isn't inherently bad. As with everything else, quality matters! Most gluten-containing foods are processed, packaged, and filled with other inflammatory ingredients- all of which will contribute to any unhealthy gut and promote inflammation in the body.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you do decide to include gluten in your diet, always look for high quality options, like those that are freshly milled, sprouted, and/or fermented. These sources of gluten will be easier to digest, more nutritious, and definitely better tasting! Think: freshly baked sourdough bread (!!!!)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, should you eat gluten? It's hard to say without working with you one-on-one. But I will say, it could be worth avoiding if you have any digestive, skin, metabolism, or hormonal issues. First, focus on addressing these imbalances. Then, it might be time tor introduce gluten into your life! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

What are your thoughts about gluten? Did you know these fun facts?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Should you skip breakfast?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Should you skip breakfast?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🚨 Spoiler alert: NO 🚨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In world with so much conflicting health information, I’d say intermittent fasting and/or skipping breakfast is one of the most confusing. I believe there are times when IF can be appropriate and even beneficial. But for all my women in their 20-30’s, hear me when I say: YOU NEED TO EAT BREAKFAST.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here’s why:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. METABOLISM- Breakfast helps support a healthy metabolism. So many women have told me they just don’t “feel hungry” first thing in the morning. While this might sound good in theory, it actually means your metabolic rate is likely slow. AKA your body is burning fewer calories than it should. Eating breakfast is the first step in restoring a healthy metabolism!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. THYROID & HORMONES- Eating balanced meals every 3-4 hours STARTING WITH BREAKFAST supports healthy thyroid function and hormonal balance. In a world full of hormone disrupters and thyroid suppressors, eating breakfast is one of the easiest (and delicious) things you can do- especially as a woman in her child-bearing years!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. STRESS- Skipping breakfast is the easiest way to start your day in a state of chronic stress. Instead, eating breakfast within 1 hour of waking up helps lower stress within the body. Breakfast feeds your adrenals, brain, muscles, and organs the nutrients and energy it needs to function well. As a result, stress levels (and hormones) balance.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Coming from someone who used to workout fasted every day, it can take time to make this change. If you’re not used to eating breakfast, I encourage you to start slow. Over time, as your appetite naturally increases, you can eat more substantial breakfasts!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you have any questions about the importance of breakfast?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm not one to jump on the bandwagon often, but I couldn’t help myself when it comes to this mouthwatering, cheesy, viral pasta dish. Let me tell you: it did not disappoint.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

• @jovial cassava penne pasta
• grass-fed better
• cherry tomatoes
• fresh basil 
• fresh garlic 
• real sea salt
• goat cheese
• grass-fed ground beef or pasture-raised chicken
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Directions:
1. Roast the cherry tomatoes, cheese, basil, garlic, and butter in a skillet or dish at 400F for 20-25 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, make the pasta and protein of choice. Set aside.
3. When the cheese are tomatoes are done, add the pasta and mix together. Top with meat! 
4. Enjoy the creamy, cheese deliciousness!

Myth: self care is selfish.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I used to think self care was selfish. But as the years go by, I'm learning that self care is anything but. In reality, it’s one of the best things we can do to support a healthy mind and body!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here's the truth: when we take care of ourselves, we can better take care of others. Taking it a step further, regular self care means:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Reducing stress⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Increasing happiness⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Supporting a healthy mind and body⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Becoming a better version of you⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And, who doesn’t want that?! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
However, in a fast-paced world with little margin, putting time and money aside for "self care" can feel close to impossible! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, how do you know if you need to up your self-care game? Are you...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Agitated or anxious?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Quick to anger or impatience?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Depressed or unmotivated?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Run down or sick often?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If so, the answer is yes. You need a little more self care in your life! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Luckily, self care doesn’t have to be expensive or time consuming. These self care ideas are budget-friendly and easy to do at home! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, what's your favorite way to practice self care? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Coming back atcha with the nourishing food swaps! Coming back atcha with the nourishing food swaps! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We've gotten so backwards with our eating habits and diets, that most of us would consider nourishing foods to be "unhealthy!"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But, I'm here to bust these common food myths and get you on the road to a nourished body 👇🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today's focus: cooking oils! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Next time you load up on cooking oils, you can walk right past the canola oil, sunflower oil, margarine, and olive oil. These oils are highly unstable, meaning they turn toxic at lower cooking temps. And you never want to cook with them! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Instead, opt for STABLE cooking oils, like coconut oil, ghee, grass-fed butter, or avocado oil! Not only do these cooking fats stay stable at higher cooking temps, but they also provide essential fat-soluble vitamins, energize your mind and body, and make your food taste so much better! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don't believe me? Just try it for yourself and let me know how you feel + how much better your food tastes! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Should you drink coffee or skip it?!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
IMO, coffee has unfairly gained a bad rap over the last couple years. Sure, it shouldn't be used as a crutch for energy, but it definitely doesn’t need to be ditched all together!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As with most things in life, coffee comes with it's boundaries. Outside it's boundaries, coffee can cause: gut distress, hormonal imbalance, adrenal fatigue, etc. I'm sure most of us have experienced the bathroom problems, jitters, and anxiety coffee CAN cause, which is why I think there's so much confusion around coffee.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, when is coffee a good thing? Within it's ground rules! 👇🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Coffee Ground Rules:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Never drink coffee on an empty stomach. Without food, coffee creates a hormonal catastrophe. It spikes blood sugar and depletes adrenals, leaving you feeling exhausted later in the day and putting your body into a chronic state of stress.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Add grass fed, raw cream/butter, sugar, and/or collagen to your coffee- but only the real stuff! These REAL ingredients will help regulate your blood sugar and feed your adrenals. The worst thing you can do for your thyroid and adrenals is drink coffee black on an empty stomach!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Opt for high quality coffee that is third party tested. Most conventional coffee beans are packed with mycotoxins (aka mold) that isn’t healthy to consume. Looking for coffee that is third party tested helps ensure the quality and benefits of your coffee. Personally, I like Four Sigmatic, Bulletproof, and Illy coffee!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'd be lying if I said I didn't LOVE drinking my hot, frothy cup of coffee each morning. But since learning to enjoy it within it's limits, I've felt a HUGE difference. I'm no longer anxious or jittery because due to drinking black coffee on an empty stomach! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, tell me: did you know these coffee boundaries? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

As promised, after a CRAZY few days, we’re back As promised, after a CRAZY few days, we’re back to our regular programming... Starting with adrenal fatigue! 👇🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Are you suffering from this thing called “adrenal fatigue?”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Unfortunately, most of us are dealing with a degree of adrenal fatigue- thanks to high stress lifestyles, processed diets, exposure to everyday toxins, etc.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Even worse, most of these common symptoms are considered "normal” 🙅🏻‍♀️ And most of us just deal with them, thinking it'll never change. But we are so WRONG!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What if I told you: you don't HAVE to live with brain fog, fatigue, low libido, insomnia, depression, and/or weight gain?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Because it’s true!!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When you bring your body back into balance, these symptoms naturally dissipate, and once again, you can live with energy, vibrancy, and excitement!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you deal with these symptoms of adrenal fatigue, here's where you can start:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. SLEEP. Aim for 8 hours a night and prioritize sleep over workouts. Without adequate sleep, the adrenals will naturally suffer big time! If you have trouble sleeping, try eating a bedtime snack, eating foods high in magnesium, and blocking out blue light.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. EAT. No, 1,200 calories per day is NOT ENOUGH. Eat more balanced meals, about 3-4 hours apart. And, don't get me started on "low carb" diets. Your body needs carbs for energy, so do your adrenals! Eating now carb is the best way to put your body into a chronic state of stress.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. MOVE. Find a low intensity activity you enjoy (ie. walking, leisurely biking, roller skating) and do it several times a week. If you can get your movement in outside, that's even better. The sun is your best source of Vitamin D! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you suffer from any of these symptoms? What has your experience been with adrenal fatigue? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
