Green Bean & Saffron Lamb Stew

The authentic flavors of Morocco, bursting with flavorful superfood spices! Free of gluten, dairy, soy, nuts, grains, and a long-winded story about my childhood that forces you to scroll down for eight minutes before finally arriving at the recipe. So… enjoy! 😉

Ingredients:

• 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1 lb organic lamb stew meat, cut into chunks
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• ½ tsp sea salt
• 2 tsp ground turmeric root
• 3/4 tsp saffron threads
• ½ tsp ground black pepper
• 1 large onion, diced
• 3 stalks of celery, diced
• 3 large heirloom tomatoes, chopped with juice retained
• 1 lb fresh green beans, cut in half
• 1/8 cup chopped fresh mint
• 1 lime

Instructions:

1. In a large pot heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the lamb, garlic, turmeric, saffron, onions, celery, salt and pepper. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
2. Add the tomatoes with their juice and 1 cup of water, cover and cook for 40 minutes.
3. Add the beans and cook for another 15 minutes on medium heat.
4. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the mint. Cut the lime in half, and squeeze all of its juice into the pot. Stir well and serve hot.

Warmly,

Cranberry Ambrosia Salad

Cranberry salad is always a Christmas tradition in my family. (Is it a midwestern thing?) I love playing with traditional recipes to make them healthier, so we can savor our favorite treats with more whole-food based nutritious ingredients. With better quality ingredients comes better flavor and guilt free indulgence. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

• 3 cups fresh Wisconsin cranberries (if you can’t find fresh, frozen works fine)
• 3/4-1 cup raw local honey
• 1 cup purified water
• 1 cinnamon stick
• 2 cups unsweetened organic Greek yogurt
• 2 cups small pineapple pieces
• 2 cups mini marshmallows (I use Dandies all natural)
• 1 cup chopped pecans
• 1.5 cups shredded coconut

Directions:

Mix the cranberries, half of the honey, water and cinnamon stick in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down and let it simmer for 10 minutes. Remove the cinnamon stick and cool completely. Combine the remaining ingredients (including the rest of the honey) with the cooled cranberry sauce and stir well. Let sit for at least 4 hours.

Warmly,
