By Mickey Trescott 

Eating for both nutrient density and the Autoimmune Protocol has never been so easy thanks to The Nutrient-Dense Kitchen! In The Nutrient-Dense Kitchen, Mickey teaches you everything you need to know about eating like a nutrivore. You'll start with a comprehensive tour of nutrients that are essential for both optimal health and deep healing, with handy charts to help you identify which foods contain them in varying amounts. You'll also get an overview of Autoimmune Protocol details, some creative ideas for affordably sourcing the highest-quality and most nutrient-dense ingredients, and tips for setting up your kitchen to cook whole foods. 


The centerpiece of The Nutrient-Dense Kitchen is Mickey's impressive collection of flavorful, approachable recipes that comply with the strictest phase of the Autoimmune Protocol of no grains, legumes, eggs, dairy, nuts, seeds, or nightshades. If you have further eating restrictions, a handy chart helps you locate the recipes that are low-FODMAP, coconut-free, or low-carb/ketogenic. If you are pressed for time, the same chart will help you identify recipes that take 45 minutes or less to prepare, can be made in your Instant Pot®, or only use one cooking vessel for easy cleanup.
