Healing Eats by Kate Jay: Review and Giveaway!

Healing Eats by Kate Jay (from the blog Healing Family Eats) is one of the most anticipated e-cookbooks this year! I, for one, am really excited to finally work my way through this beautiful e-book! Everything that comes out of Kate’s kitchen is magical!

Kate originally hails from England but now lives in Canada with her husband and their two children. If you could hear her talk, you would fall in love with her lovely British accent! She is a regular recipe contributor over at Autoimmune Wellness and was the host of several instructional videos in the Autoimmune Connection series.

Get your copy of Healing Eats

Healing Eats is a collection of family-favorite recipes created around anti-inflammatory and healing foods. As you embark on a healing protocol such as the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP), this e-book offers you the guidance you need in order to:

  1. Remove food stressors from your diet,
  2. Build a new tasty menu with dishes designed to deliver maximum nutrition and maximum flavor.

What I like about Healing Eats:

  • Kate has a true talent to create simple and elegant recipes that will make you forget you are following a restricted healing diet! She cooks from the heart and artfully combines authenticity and practicality into every dish.
  • Kate's recipes appeal to every palate, from picky eaters to seasoned foodies.
  • Kate strives to cram as many nutrients as possible in every dish, making every recipe not only delicious but highly nutritious as well!
  • All of the recipes in Healing Eats are compliant with the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) and the Wahls Paleo diet. Kate also labeled her recipes for GAPS, SCD, Whole30, Low-FODMAP, and Low-Histamine. There is truly something for everyone in this cookbook!

Here are my favorite recipes!

This 76-page e-book consists of 25 recipes, divided into five chapters: Healing Bowls, Healing Dishes, Healing Plates, Healing Treats, and Healing Cups. Each recipe is focused on adding nutrients to the diet to aid the healing process.

    I’m loving learning all these great AIP recipes! My family wants to eat the same food I do because it is so good. I have you and Kate to thank for many of those recipes. I’d love to add Kate’s book to my growing collection.

    The hubby is finally on board; which means he’ll sit down and eat with us, which also means, my young daughter is more likely to eat well too. The family that eats together, heals together! I’d love a copy of Kate Jays new cookbook!

    This looks fabulous! Besides the fact that AIP cuisine is healing, I love that (for those of us who enjoy cooking) time spent preparing real food with a purpose can be therapeutic in itself. And the results can be nourishing to our senses as well as to our bodies. Cooking this way makes me feel more connected in a way.

    (Sophie’s book, “Simple French Paleo” epitomizes this with the beautiful photography and narrative and recipes that are visually enticing as well as delicious.)

    I am grateful to all those who spend their time, energy, and finances to bring us beautiful AIP resources.
