Let's have Congee! Congee or congee is a type of rice porridge popular in many Asian countries, especially East Asia. When eaten as plain rice congee, it is most often served with side dishes.

What the heck is congee?! Let me tell you... if you can tolerate grains in your diet and are candida free, I'd recommend trying this yummy bowl of amazingness! I'm just a girl with an appetite for chocolate, even while learning to navigate SIBO. At the beginning of my treatment, I could not eat this. So far, two years out from treatments, I've been ok. I've had 8 SIBO treatments in all to date.

Need a burger fix?! If you find yourself craving a burger but don't want to do the bun, then why not try the no bun burger salad?! There are paleo wraps out now and options to make a mushroom bun, but another way to get the same flavor without the fuss of a bun is to simply turn your hamburger into a salad.

Here's one of my savory breakfasts that I like to eat when my SIBO is going quite well and my symptoms are at bay! Sour dough is the closest toast I have found to be able, to eat thanks to the old-fashioned baking technique that may help break down gluten in wheat. Sourdough is perfect for this yummy savory breakfast if you are craving toast!

I love bone broth, especially because of it's healing qualities! I have found bone broth stock to be the No. 1 thing you can consume to help treat: Treat leaky gut syndrome, Overcome food intolerances and allergies, Improve joint health, Reduce cellulite, Boost immune system.

While I'm just finishing up my 8th round of SIBO treatments, I'm finding I gravitate towards all veggies that are cooked through and presenting a softer texture. This is where my Insta Pot comes in very handy! I simply prepare my veggies and place into the Insta Pot and my lunch for the next 3-4 days is ready!

My dinners tend to be quick and easy. Especially with the kids in tow with their various sports. After a full day with clients as well, I need quick, nutritious and fast to the table nutrients! This dinner tasted so FRESH & DELICIOUS! Pair it with any veggie and/or clean carbohydrate, and you've got yourself a perfect plate! This dinner is SIBO (small intestinal overgrowth) approved.

If desired, serve with toasted sesame seeds and scallions (use only green parts for SIBO or Lower Fodmap option). Serve with a side of roasted veggies or a side salad. Get creative! Sometimes simple can be better. I often include a side of roasted garlic broccoli. It's very yummy!

When I first took an interest in the Health & Fitness Industry, along came the intensity of what I should and shouldn't eat to be lean. I desperately wanted to be lean and have a six-pack. At what extreme would I be willing to get there?

I'm on a mission to help you become the best version of YOU. I know what it's like not to feel like yourself. I know what it's like to completely lose your health. But I know what it takes to RISE above.

For years, I struggled with digestive and health issues and chronic infections. I knew if I wanted to successfully manage and overcome my challenges, I needed an approach that would help me with all areas of my life: body, mind, spirit, and environment. I found my solution in perseverance and becoming a holistic health and wellness coach.
