This is my favorite time of year for many different reasons, but winding down from the busy summer to nestle in with some warm tea and holiday memories is my favorite. What do you like about fall?

My family and I love throwing pumpkin in muffins, waffles, pancakes, cookies, and bread this time of year. We also enjoy using einkorn flour as it has a healthier profile (more protein and vitamins than standard wheat flours). Here's a great recipe you can check out :)

This healthy pumpkin einkorn bread will become a staple recipe in your kitchen any time of year. It is easily made in one bowl.

I love the fall harvest foods, second only to berries in the late spring and early summer. But did you know pumpkin is also great for your health? Especially if you are a male? Pumpkin (Cucurbita sp.) has been used by humans for centuries for its health benefits. Great for supporting health male reproductive health, it can improve s***m production and can by helpful with treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It also promotes wound healing, is antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory. Pumpkin is also protective against cancer, supports healthy blood sugar, and can help prevent heart disease.

Now to share the secrete of making bone broth... This is surprisingly easy to make, and it requires only a little bit of effort on your part. If you just ate organic chicken for dinner or you have some soup bones ready to go, you are all set! I use a heavy splash of vinegar (you can use apple cider too), then I add a fresh onion, garlic, 2-3 celery stalks, a few carrots, and I throw it in the crockpot overnight. In the morning, voila! Homemade bone broth! Need more in depth instructions? Click the link below :)

Bone broth is easy to make and may provide many health benefits. Here are reasons to drink bone broth, as well as a recipe to get you started.

Have you heard of bone broth before? As the fall temperatures begin to roll in, especially later this week in MI, I start to think of adding more bone broth back into my diet. There's nothing like a steaming warm up mid-afternoon. The benefits of adding bone broth include:
- Twice the protein of traditional broths (8-10 grams on average)
- Bone healthy minerals like calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus
- Improved skin and gut health
- Anti-inflammatory
