ABOUT THE AUTOIMMUNE PROTOCOL
When first diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease as a teenager, diet was the furthest thing from my mind. I thought my fatigue, brain fog, and weight changes were a life sentence and there was little I could do about it. It was only when I discovered the world of healing with food, through a gluten-free diet, then a paleo diet, and finally the autoimmune protocol, that I saw vast improvements to my health. If you suffer from any autoimmune disease, not just Hashimoto’s, you may find success with this protocol. The AIP is designed to lower inflammation, in general, to allow the body to heal.
AIP BASICS
When following the autoimmune protocol, it can be difficult to find compliant basics that are premade. Gone are the days of popping into the grocery store on the way home from work to grab a jar of pasta sauce and go on your way. Does that mean the days of enjoying pasta sauce, ketchup, and cheese are gone? Of course not! You can easily make these basics autoimmune protocol compliant and keep them on hand for when you need them.
BREAKFAST IN BED
How in the world do you enjoy breakfast without eggs and grains? That’s a question I asked myself years ago, and one people often ask me when they learn the AIP doesn’t include either of these foods. We’re conditioned to believe breakfast is an incredibly narrow meal with only a few options allowed. There is so much more to breakfast than just eggs and oatmeal. These recipes allow you to get creative while still paying homage to comfort-food classics such as bagels and lox and French toast. Remember to keep an open mind—what you wind up trying and liking may surprise you!
APPETIZERS, DIPS & SNACKS
I could never have pictured myself walking by the grocery store snack aisle without grabbing a bag of potato chips or popcorn. I didn’t think it was possible to make snacks at home that tasted as yummy as store-bought ones. However, snacks, dips, and appetizers don’t have to come from a bag or container and be super-processed to be delicious. Not even close! Snacks made at home can be richer, healthier, and far more flavorful. These recipes are perfect for pleasing a party crowd.
SOUPS, SALADS & SIDES
Soups can be an incredibly healing and nourishing staple to have on the AIP, and salads and vegetable-rich side dishes add extra nutrients, textures, and flavors to a meal. Having the right soup or salad to start a meal, or a good side dish to pair with a protein can immediately elevate and round out what could be an otherwise boring meal. I don’t know how I would get through winter without a warming soup such as Butternut Bison Chili, or summer without a light, crisp dish such as Picnic Broccoli Slaw!
CRAVEABLE MAINS & PROTEINS
It can be easy to become bored when following a diet, but it also becomes more challenging when you’re omitting a wide variety of foods. Getting stuck in a food rut is common, but there is so much more to nourishing AIP meals than just chicken, broccoli, and sweet potato. This chapter features the special Sunday night dinner you’ve been looking for, the easy one-pan meal you need for a weeknight, and more!
HOLIDAY FAVORITES
The holidays are the time of year when you just want to kick back, relax, and indulge a little with family and friends. You don’t want to have to worry about missing out on the comforting foods you love, but you also don’t want to ruin your holiday eating food that makes you ill. It’s a delicate balance that can often add more stress to an already stressful time of year. I first started changing my diet the day after Thanksgiving and I was already terrified of what I was going to do for the rest of the holiday season. It doesn’t have to be that way. You can have your gingerbread cookies and eat them, too!
DECADENT DESSERTS & DRINKS
If you feel as though starting the autoimmune protocol means you can no longer enjoy a baked good, decadent dessert, or fun drink, think again! Even though grains, eggs, and sugar are no longer part of your diet, I’ve got you covered in this chapter. Look forward to scones, cookies, cupcakes, brownies, gummies, sangria, and more. Remember the core of the autoimmune protocol is healing, nutrient-dense food.
QUESO BLANCO
Get game day started on the right foot with this dairy-free “cheese” dip that will remind you of the familiar queso blanco, which means “white cheese” in Spanish. It is often made using melted American and Monterey Jack cheeses. Serve this version with Plantain Chips or sliced vegetables.
MONGOLIAN BEEF
You seriously won’t believe this Mongolian beef is AIP compliant! This dish is so flavorful and rich it’s sure to fool any guests—if you choose to share, that is!
TUNA ZOODLE CASSEROLE
Your average tuna noodle casserole is made with canned soup, milk, peas, tons of butter, egg noodles, and bread crumbs. This isn’t your average tuna noodle casserole! It’s made with spiralized zucchini—to look just like egg noodles—for a vegetable-forward meal.
MINT CHIP BROWNIES
There’s nothing like the smell and taste of fresh mint, especially when it’s paired with rich brownies and a creamy frosting. These brownies are heavy on the mint flavor and are an all-around decadent and fun treat.
