Eating for both nutrient density and the Autoimmune Protocol has never been so easy thanks to The Nutrient-Dense Kitchen!

You might be surprised to discover exactly how difficult it is to reach nutrient sufficiency eating a modern diet. While our food system is flooded with high-energy foods, these products only serve to fill us up and offer close to nothing in the way of true nourishment. An adequate supply of nutrientsvitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, fatty acids, and fibers, to name a feware needed by the body to perform countless functions and provide essential structure. Nutrient density in the diet impacts both the outcome of chronic illness and the prevention of future disease.

In The Nutrient-Dense Kitchen, Mickey teaches you everything you need to know about eating like a nutrivore. Youll start with a comprehensive tour of nutrients that are essential for both optimal health and deep healing, with handy charts to help you identify which foods contain them in varying amounts.

If you have further eating restrictions, a handy chart helps you locate the recipes that are low-FODMAP, coconut-free, or low-carb/ketogenic. If you are pressed for time, the same chart will help you identify recipes that take 45-minutes or less to prepare, can be made in your Instant Pot®, or only use one cooking vessel for easy cleanup.

In addition to the recipes youll find five sets of meal plans and shopping lists to quick-start your approach to eating for nutrient density. The seasonal meal plans focus on ingredients that are at their peak ripeness and availability in the spring or fall seasons, while the budget meal plan incorporates recipes with an eye for affordability.

Lastly, for those embarking on this journey as a couple, the two-person meal plan accounts for larger servings while still only requiring one cooking session per day.

Nutrient Density: How to take healing further on the Autoimmune Protocol

Since publishing the first cookbook devoted to the Autoimmune Protocol (The Autoimmune Paleo Cookbook) over six years ago, I’ve realized that the most overlooked and powerful concept in the AIP community is nutrient density.

This time, I’ve gone back into the kitchen to develop a collection of recipes that not only comply with the AIP, but are simple, approachable, and incorporate some the most healing foods.

If you cook with an Instant Pot, are looking for recipes that can be on the table in 45 minutes or less, or are interested in one pot recipes for easy cleanup, I’ve got you covered! In addition, I’ve flagged recipes that are low-FODMAP, ketogenic/low-carb, or coconut-free.

Here is a taste of what you’ll find inside The Nutrient-Dense Kitchen:

125 AIP Recipes

This collection of recipes is not only compliant with the strictest phase of the Autoimmune Protocol (no grains, legumes, eggs, nuts, seeds, or nightshade family vegetables), but also focuses on nutrient density. I’m known for developing recipes that are not only flavorful, but simple to make and appeal to a wide variety of palates.

Five Meal Plans

Included in the book are five 2-week meal plans that come with done-for-you shopping lists ready to take to the store. Whether you want to focus on seasonal eating, have budget restrictions, want to hone in on extra nutrient density for deep healing, or are serving more than one person, there is something for you in this section!

Nutrient Tables & Charts

The Nutrient-Dense Kitchen isn’t just a cookbook–I spend the first half of the book educating you about the concept of nutrient density, how to identify the most nutrient-dense foods, why food quality is important, and creative ways to source these nutrient-dense, high-quality foods without breaking the bank.

AIP Instructions

If you are new to the Autoimmune Protocol, an elimination and reintroduction protocol for those looking to identify food allergies and sensitivities, I provide an overview in the book. I cover the reasons why AIP is effective and how to transition the diet, lists of foods to include and avoid, info about the reintroduction process.

Meet the author, Mickey Trescott, NTP!

I’m Mickey, a chef and certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner who helps people find creative solutions to preparing, cooking, and succeeding on allergen-free diets like the Autoimmune Protocol.

I’ve been living an AIP lifestyle since my diagnosis of Hashimoto’s and celiac disease in 2011, after which I experienced a massive health crisis. The Autoimmune Protocol completely changed my life, and I decided to get to work creating approachable resources for those who wanted to change their lives too.

I have a passion for the organization that goes in to keeping a kitchen stocked full of wholesome home-cooked meals, even while on a restricted diet. With this book, I’ve created a one-stop resource for those of you looking to cook for AIP while maximizing nutrient density.

Extra features of The Nutrient-Dense Kitchen:

You’ll find chapters on appetizers & snacks, dressings & sauces, vegetables, meat, poultry, seafood, pork, and sweet treats.

Low-FODMAP, low-carb, and coconut-free recipes

For those who are layering other protocols onto AIP, I’ve included a chart in the back of the book with recipes and modifications.
