HAPPY FRIDAY!
|
|
|
I would never have guessed we’d do an issue about limes! When most people think of limes, guacamole and tequila are all that come to mind. Certainly, those are two ways to use them, but there are so many more. It’s time to broaden our association of what we think of when we think about limes, so pucker up!

I love limes! I delight in infusing my food, my water, and many of my salad dressings with a squeeze of lime. We’re just entering lime season, which for me is a reason to celebrate. Limes are in season from about May to October. I like their tart and refreshing flavor, whether they’re Key limes, Persian limes, kaffir limes, or desert limes.

MY WHOLE30 SPICY CHICKEN SOUP WITH LIME
|
|
|
A bit of lime juice brightens up soups, salad dressings, cocktails, and tacos. Limes also happen to have plenty of potassium and Vitamin C. Native to India, one lime tree can produce as many as 1000 limes annually! This week I’ve included some of my very favorite ways to enjoy them.

COCONUT LIME VINAIGRETTE IS A FANTASTIC ADDITION TO SO MANY DISHES
|
|
|
Limes are a great addition to my Whole30 Spicy Chicken Soup and Thai-inspired dishes. One of my most under appreciated Magic Elixirs is my Coconut Lime Vinaigrette. It comes together deliciously with lime, cilantro, and mango, to name a few. It’s fantastic simply to enjoy with arugula or over my Whole30 Chicken Taco Salad. The crunchy jicama slivers are spectacular dipped in this vinaigrette.

I love these Key Lime Cookie Cups with Icelandic Provisions. They’re perfect when the weather is warm and so much fun to make with kids. My very easy recipe can be made gluten-free or regular, and everyone devours them. Sometimes I enjoy having just a bite of dessert, and these cookie cups are the perfect bite.

KEY LIME COOKIE CUPS ARE THE PERFECT SUMMER DESSERT
|
|
Another favorite from the blog is my Picante Shrimp Salad with Lime Caesar Dressing. This dressing is another Magic Elixir that’s great to keep in the fridge to eat on repeat. It’s a spectacular way to usher in spring. Drizzle it over a platter of cucumbers, baby greens, sunflower seeds, and avocado.

They’ll initially be available only to blog subscribers and Crumbles, so look for your email Saturday morning with the VIP link to shop. We are so excited to be using a new clay type for this limited-edition collection. All pieces are made of hand-thrown white stoneware clay that is sourced domestically and sustainably and is even sturdier than other clays.

TURMERIC IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE ESSENTIALS
|
|
People always message me about turmeric, and my favorite product is MaryRuth’s Organics Turmeric Gold. It’s absolutely amazing for inflammation and has made a huge difference in my life. With my torn meniscus, it’s been a key tool in my year of health. My very traditional doctor explained that it takes three months to kick in and that you need to take it like clockwork the same as you would a medication. So I take it like clockwork three times a day, and my inflammation is greatly relieved! I’m off all over the counter products, and I feel like a rockstar! Feel free to DM me any questions, and when you shop, use the code teri20 for your discount.

CHECK OUT WHAT I'M READING!
|
|
I am frequently asked what I’m reading. Most of you know that one of my favorite pastimes is listening to books on Audible, and that I prefer books that aren’t terribly sad. When much of my day is spent doing for others, there’s nothing I love more than an amazing narrator telling me a beautiful story.
