55: Repurposing Meals for AIP Variety featuring Kate Jay

Season #3

If you have ever looked at your batch-cooked dinner or leftovers and thought, "Ugh, not that again," this Summit Encore is for you. Kate Jay of Healing Family Eats shows how to cook one template meal built on a diverse mix of vegetables and ground meat, then repurpose it into five very different meals: a blended soup, tacos, a hidden-veggie meatloaf, a stuffed sweet potato, and spiced cauli-rice. The base itself makes a satisfying breakfast skillet. Whether you are doing AIP on your own or guiding clients through it, you'll come away with a flexible template you can adapt to your own tastes, budget, and stage of the protocol. This presentation was originally shared at the 2022 AIP Summit and was filmed in Kate's kitchen, so you'll hear her narrate as she cooks.
