This 2012 Calendar features 12 simple, delicious, nourishing recipes created by Hella Delicious based on the Gut and Psychology Syndrome diet and the Weston A Price Foundations dietary guidelines.
The GAPS diet has turned my life around, my health is exponentially better than a year and a half ago when we set out on this journey. The diet is a challenge at the beginning, as you have to learn new methods of cooking–once you get the hang of it, eating becomes a daily adventure. This calendar contains a selection of my favorite easy-to-make, delicious, grain-free, gluten-free, paleo, GAPS and SCD friendly recipes. I included a broad selection, including fermented foods, desserts, breakfasts, main dishes, snacks and simple sides. I hope this calendar will be a helpful aid and inspiration for anyone starting out on the diet. It’s also a taste of my coming recipe book

From my favorite inspiring Little Green Book The One Straw Revolution...this book makes great bedtime reading, as you get such lovely images to dream about. It is basically a collection of some of the things he said, so some chapters are only a couple pages long--if you tend to fall right asleep whe ...

On the evening of August 20th 2009, I took my 20 minute walk, laden with water for my garden. It was the night of the black moon but I was happy loping down the hill the my little bit of greenspace. When I arrived and realized the garden had been mowed to the ground I was in such a state of shock, I ...
