Nettle Soda Bread

Nettle Soda Bread

This nettle soda bread is one of my favorite quick bread options. It’s quick, delicious, and pairs wonderfully with a hearty soup or a breakfast scramble. It's wonderful when enjoyed warm, slathered with butter and a sprinkle of salt. Nettle is a nourishing addition to this simple bread. It's rich in iron, calcium, magnesium, and several other important nutrients. This recipe is a great way to use those lovely nettle tops that emerge in the spring.
Wild Mustard Greens Pesto

Wild Mustard Greens Pesto

By incorporating wild mustard into our meals and medicine cabinet this spring we can let our bodies awaken to the earth’s rhythms and use the plants and flowers presented to us. Celebrating wild mustard’s flavors and recognizing its healing gifts as we transition into spring is a great way to be reminded of the abundance of nature. Typically gratitude is easy to find during the harvest or autumn months, but sometimes we need reminding of the bounty an early spring can bring.
