Dish up the simple joy of healthy, down-home foods your family will LOVE… tonight.

My most recent addition to our natural arsenal is homemade cough syrup -- made with one of my favorite kitchen gadgets, the Instant Pot!

Native Texans, Lindsey and her family now live in the northern Minnesota wilderness on their dream property, where they are attempting to raise chickens and a few of their own veggies. In her free time, she enjoys food photography, flipping through cookbooks, and tackling home improvement projects. She also serves on the board of her local food co-op. Lindsey has dedicated much of her time over the past several years to unlearning conventional practices and implementing Traditional foods and natural remedies in her home. This has radically changed her and her familys health. Lindsey now loves to share her knowledge and recipes through her blog Today in Dietzville and her eBook Nourishing No-Bake Treats.
