Roasted Butternut Pumpkin and Leek Salad
Roasted butternut pumpkin and leek salad is a nutrient-rich dish that offers a host of health benefits. Butternut pumpkin is an excellent source of vitamins A and C, which support immune function and promote healthy skin. It is also rich in dietary fibre, aiding digestion and maintaining gut health. Leeks contribute antioxidants, including flavonoids, which may help reduce inflammation and protect against chronic diseases. They also provide vitamin K for bone health and manganese for energy metabolism. When roasted, the natural sweetness of these vegetables enhances their flavour, making the salad both delicious and nutritious. Adding olive oil or a light dressing can introduce healthy fats, improving the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins while making the dish even more satisfying. -
Tamari Chicken Crispy Rice Salad
Crispy rice salad is becoming a popular dinner time meal now that the weather is warming up. This is a light Asian style salad and I've made it SIBO Biphasic Diet friendly. You can swap the Tamari Sauce over to Teriyaki Sauce for another flavour but this won't be SIBO friendly but still delicious.
This salad promotes hormone balance, reduces inflammation, and supports gut health—all integral aspects of wellness in naturopathy. Whether you’re managing SIBO, aiming for hormone balance, or simply prioritising anti-inflammatory foods, this recipe aligns with naturopathic principles for optimal health.
