This may be controversial but…. Most bread at This may be controversial but…. 

Most bread at the store is not real bread. These breads are often filled with highly processed seed oils, GMOs, and artificial ingredients that are harmful to our health. 

Bread made right in your own kitchen is the best bread you can get. Especially made with simple ingredients like flour, starter/yeast, oil, honey, water, and salt. 

Nothing compares to the satisfaction and taste of biting into a slice of fresh-out-of-the-oven bread with melted butter and jam, while saving money at the same time! Who agrees with me?! 

If you want to make bread even more nutritious, you can make your own flour by milling grains, swapping seed oils for butter or avocado oil, and replace the sugar for honey or maple syrup or skip the sugar all together! 

Unfortunately, it’s not just the bread. It is A LOT of other foods at the store that are filled with absolute junk.. And I know how intimidating it can feel not knowing where to start. 

This is why I’ve created my guide, “Staples Made Simple: A beginners guide to cooking everyday pantry staples & recipes from scratch.” To give you the confidence you need to start your journey! 

Inside, you’ll find 100+ easy-to-follow recipes – including all essential breads staples to sourdough for beginners, grab + go snacks, sweet desserts, drinks, condiments, and easy breakfast & dinner options. Learn to source the highest quality ingredients even on a budget, tips on planning your meals, and find useful printable charts, grocery lists, walkthrough videos and more!

Friends, if you’re not making more of your food Friends, if you’re not making more of your food from scratch, we need to talk! 

It’s 2024 and it’s nothing new that these ultra processed, pre-packed foods we find at the grocery store are making us sick. 

The latest studies show that average American adult is consuming 60% of their daily intake in processed foods. For children and teens, it’s up to 67%.. And at the same time obesity, metal health, and chronic illnesses are on the rise.

It’s time to bring back REAL WHOLE FOODS. 

I know how overwhelming it can be when you are first starting your health journey which is exactly why I’ve created my all-in-one guide called ‘Staples Made Simple’.
