A few smart orders now, before the first bell even rings, can save a lot of scrambling once the school year starts.  Skip the Store, Not the Standards Between drop-off, pickup, practice, and everything else crammed into the after-school hours, a grocery run is often the first thing to get cut from the week.

Many women don’t get enough protein in their diets. This can impact their health over time. If you want to prioritize eating well without turning to powders and supplements, you have to get your protein from your diet. Foods like nutritious chicken raised free from soy and corn, and grass-fed beef from ethical farms, can help you fill your plate with protein-rich foods you’ll love. Here’s how to do it without changing everything about your diet.  Meal Prep Your Breakfasts If you prep your breakfast in advance, you’re more likely to forgo quick fixes like granola bars and toast. You can grab your meal-prepped lunch and head out the door, or eat it at home and reheat it the way you like.

You hate to see food go to waste. If you’re making the effort to source meat and poultry from ethical farms that take sustainability seriously, you want to make sure those values follow you into the kitchen. Whether you’re wondering how long defrosted food lasts in the fridge or wanting more information about storing leftovers, you’ll find that there are ways to make sure nothing goes to waste. Do You Defrost Meat and Chicken? Depending on where and how you defrost grass-fed beef and pasture raised chicken from your latest regenerative farm delivery, you’ll have a different time frame for when to use the protein. On the Countertop When you defrost meat on the countertop (or in the sink), you have to use it that day. Once meat or poultry is completely defrosted, it should not be refrozen. And, once it reaches room temperature, you need to cook it.  In the Fridge If you defrost chicken, beef, or pork in the fridge, it’s best to use it within 24 hours of defrosting, ...

We know food as fuel: Nutrients converted into energy to keep our bodies moving and our brains focused. What if pastured proteins like corn and soy free chicken or grass fed beef could also nourish your body from the inside out , leading to healthier, more radiant-looking skin?  If it sounds simple, it’s because it is! Real food delivers real nutrition, and your skin, the body’s largest organ, is the first to feel and see the difference. Why a Nutrient-Dense Profile Matters It’s hard to beat the nutritional profile of pastured proteins compared with conventional farm-raised meats you’d find at a grocery store. Take healthy omega-3 fatty acids and their less healthy sibling, omega-6, for example. Both are essential nutrients the body needs to function, but an unbalanced omega-6-to-omega-3 ratio can lead to inflammation and other health conditions. Most people tend to do well in the omega-6 department, as it's often found in seed oils and fried foods. When conventio...

School’s out, the kids are bursting with energy, and suddenly the kitchen becomes the busiest place for parents: Endless snacks, the fifth “ Mom, I’m hungry! ” of the afternoon, and dinners that need to be on the table ASAP. The answer to nutritious, delicious meals little hands will love? A freezer stocked with staple proteins like pastured chicken , grass fed and finished beef, and corn and soy-free pork.  These staples do the heavy lifting in the kitchen, so meals become more nourishing (and less stressful), and you spend less time planning meals and more time enjoying this season of your kids’ lives.  Build Your Own Pizza (BYOP) A little marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, and pasture raised ground pork sausage go a long way toward keeping the kids entertained with this BYOP dish. The idea is simple and fun, letting your littles take the lead in crafting their very own pie. Ditch the store-bought pepperoni with preservatives for farm-fresh, hormone- and anti...
