      Thank you, Mom and Dad,

      for inspiring us all to be healthier.

      I learned how to make some of my favorite (unhealthy) dishes

      in a creative and nutritious way. I got to learn how to do it

      on my own; to honor my preferences and pave my own way.

      I am truly honored when you ask me to cook for dinner parties.

      Thank you, Bro, for being a vegetarian!

      You set an example and have always influenced me to

      eat more green things (which are now my favorites)!

      Thanks also for always sharing your vegetables in the refrigerator

      and for role modeling listening to your gut.

      Thank you to my friends who come over hungry,

      consistently clean their plates, and bring their best SELVES

      to keep me feeling encouraged and supported.

      You know who you are.

      Thank you to M.W. for being a notoriously picky eater,

      which has challenged my creativity.

      Thank you also for cooking with and for me, and

      for speaking so highly of my dishes to complete strangers.

      —Devyn

      INDEX

      Dear Reader,

      This is a book of guessipes or lists of ingredients I have thrown together using my intuition. It is a book of things I love to eat, cook, and share with my family and friends. If you’re reading these words, I consider you a friend, and I’m excited to share with you how I am learning to nourish myself—body, mind, and spirit—and how to do so using my intuition.

      I’m more interested in suggesting how you choose to cook, rather than what you choose to eat. Though filled with delicious, often primal-aligned recipes, this cookbook is really about encouraging you to become a little more conscious, a little more mindful, and a little more playful in your experience with food.

      There are a million different theories on diets and lifestyles, all competing against one another, perhaps for the purpose of book sales and blog visits. Yet you might be surprised to learn how much those diverse diets have in common. According to most nutritional theories, if you can avoid processed food and sugar, limit your intake of alcohol and caffeine, and physically move your body each day, you’re on the right track.

      We are what we eat. This is the simplest and most overlooked concept in the medical profession—a community that has become obsessed with trying to fix problems rather than prevent them. It’s no surprise that so many of us are fat, sick, and nearly dead, as the wellness advocate, entrepreneur, and writer Joe Cross would say.

      This book is a reminder to tap into your intuition, that wise inner voice that knows when, what, and how much your body needs to stay healthy and strong. All of us can access this intuition. Slow down and listen.

      Taking care of your health—physical, emotional, and spiritual—means learning how to love and nourish yourself by developing a friendlier relationship with food. As with any relationship, you’re probably going to stumble and make mistakes. You might add too much salt to a dish, or mix flavors that don’t really work together. That’s okay. Making mistakes is an important part of the journey. Discovering that you can recover and move forward from your mistakes is what builds confidence, both in and outside the kitchen.

      Enjoy the guessipes in my cookbook, but most importantly, have fun experimenting

      Enjoying the preview?
