Greek Dill Chicken and Rice #healthyfood #lorijeanfinnilainthekitchen

I put most of this into an instant pot browning the chicken, then onion and garlic and cooked on high for 10 min. with a natural release. I browned some tofu with the chicken as well.

Cauliflower Steaks and Homemade Onion Rings #healthyfood #lorijeanfinnilainthekitchen

 

Love these! Ate almost half the cauliflower.

Cauliflower Steaks Recipe

I've always loved homemade onion rings. I make them in my air fryer with seasoned salt flour and buttermilk.

Nut Free Pesto #womenwithinflammation #healing #lorijeanfinnila

This pesto is made with the basil leaves from the @officialaerogarden my son gave me. I've never tasted anything like it and already feel the healing effects only have eaten lunch 30 min. ago. More energy, clarity, more emotionally stable. @freshcoasteats I added a bit of frozen spinach and lemon to 1/3 of it inspired by @twopeasandtheirpod. The 4C homestyle romano parmesan came in handy with delivery and no additive. Better warmed up or after sitting in the basil overnight. I suggest letting the pesto settle in the fridge for a while before eating it anyway - it's very pungent.

VEGETARIAN CHILI | a healthy, one-pot vegetarian recipe you'll love! Best I Ever Had

The best chili I ever had. And I didn't even have the fire roasted tomatoes or peppers. I used some flakes pepper and crushed tomatoes.The best chili I ever had.

Successful Oat Milk, I think.... #oatmilk #ataskathand #grateful #lorijeanfinnilainthekitchen

 I think I finally got it. I made oat milk that doesn't taste really watery and actually leaves a bit of a satisfying taste in my mouth, and this is before refrigeration (no impact on Cookie and Kate) - I use a lot of her recipes.

Air Fryer Baked Eggplant #eggplant #airfryerrecipes #healthyfood

 Most of the eggplant is made with an air fryer once I figured out it tasted better. I mixed some flour with basil and oregano and made an egg wash dipping the flour twice doing it after the egg wash too. Then I lightly brush olive oil on the eggplant and air fryer basket and fried at 400 degrees for a few minutes on each side until it browned. Then I took half and layer it in the baking dish and put some good jarred sauce, a bit, over that layer, and then put the next layer and more sauce and I topped it with cheddar cheese because that's all I  had in the house. Be sure to salt and pepper your eggplant before air frying as well. You can do this after it's all coated and after lightly brushing with oil. I baked it at 350 degrees for 20 min. My oven works fast. Yum!!!

Banana Wheat Muffins #lorijeanfinnilainthekitchen #fightinflammation #abuseinjuries

Recipe

Buttermilk

I'm always happy when I find a recipe that's healthy that helps fight my inflammation. I feel sad and left out a lot when I can't eat foods that others do because my body will feel on fire; I have a deeper injury of being poisoned by a good chance of pesticides (insect killers). My body is so reactive like nothing I've ever seen before, and when people want to hurt you it's so easy to grab something out of the garage. And then laugh later, who would believe?

But with my persistence to help other abuse victims and my relentless search I finally found those intelligent enough to listen to me as well as have the proper tools to test me to narrow the search to my effects.

I entered my early day with a smile from the smell and springs from coconut sugar, I used coconut oil, and fresh organic eggs into a wonderful wheat muffin with just enough all purpose flour to give it a spring. Thanks to Whole Foods for once again making my day. (I made my own buttermilk too.)

Honey-Turmeric and Ginger Tea #digestiveissues #womenwithinflammation #abuseinjuries #lorijeanfinnilainthekitchen

I made this in the instant pot. I'm sure you can make it on the stove. This tea helps my digestive issues or gut health as a lot of us are knowing of it now.

I used to put ginger and turmeric in my smoothie which made it bitter. I needed these two in the morning or I would cramp in my stomach bad which because of the gut issue happening would then immediately lend to my head injuries with pain, discomfort, and confusion, as well as to the pain in the rest of my body from injuries from abuse as well.

I got the recipe from a book I borrowed from the library by Coco Marante on instant pot cooking.

Homemade Rosemary Bread #brainsupport #spices #lorijeanfinnila

Rosemary has such a positive effect to my brain. I feel more clarity as if I'm getting more oxygen when I eat it. I happily went to the library yesterday and picked up two books on cooking with spices and their history. I was intrigued, and had been, by my Portuguese ancestors part in this. 

Recipe

I saw a recipe for rosemary bread in one of the books and thought to make some. I couldn't use that recipe because I didn't have anymore bread flour that I was hoping to use up but I happily found this one. I swapped out honey for the sugar. I'll be eating soft eggs on toast and a pasta sauce with an organic rosemary turkey patty sandwich, that my son got me the patties, tonight. I also thought to make one large loaf. I think it's better suited for sandwiches.
