                      Anti-Inflammatory Diet Meal Prep_Front Cover (1)Sticking to an anti-inflammatory diet can feel overwhelming, but the Anti-Inflammatory Diet Meal Prep cookbook makes it efficient, effective, and delicious to improve your health.

                      The Inspiration

                      Ginger’s work as a dietitian has a strong theme: helping people lower inflammation in their bodies. From her work as an intern at the Veterans Hospital in Chicago, dietitian work at a large hospital where she spent time on the cardiac floor, educating patients who had just had heart attacks, and the Block Center for Integrative Cancer Treatment where she spent years as a dietitian supporting people going through active treatment – chemotherapy and radiation – with plant-based diet education, supplements and lifestyle changes all geared towards calming the inflammation in their bodies so they could heal, she learned that you can absolutely influence inflammatory markers in the body with nutrition. With less inflammation, you feel better, experience less pain, support your body’s healing and increase energy.

                      Writing a book that not only outlines exactly what an anti-inflammatory diet is but also precisely how to do it through preparing your meals ahead of time and planning out your weeks was something she always wanted to do. Ginger knows that if you’ve got chronic inflammation or an inflammatory disease is that you often live in pain and/or experience fatigue. That’s not a great combination for getting in the kitchen and cooking. With her meal prep plan, you plan once a week. You shop once a week. You prep once a week and then you’re done. You’ll never have to worry about what’s for breakfast, lunch or dinner again. The recipes are easy, versatile so you can flex them to your needs, and use on-hand ingredients that are affordable and familiar.

                      If you or anyone you know is suffering from inflammation or an inflammatory disease, make sure to pick up the book on Amazon or request it at your local bookstore. If you’re a person who wants to make your weekly schedule lighter and easier through meal prep, this book is also for you.

                      Edamame Hummus 

                      Edamame hummus is the perfect way to boost protein and antioxidants in dip form. This hummus tastes great on whole-grain crackers, chips, and fresh veggies, like carrots, bell peppers, cucumber, tomatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, or celery. This recipe uses frozen edamame, so you can make it even if you don’t have fresh edamame on hand. 

                      Makes 5 Servings 

                      Prep time: 10 minutes 

                      Cook time: 5 minutes 

                      Dairy Free, Gluten-Free, Nightshade-Free, Nut-Free, Vegan 

                      Ingredients

                      8 ounces frozen shelled edamame
                      ¼ cup tahini
                      Juice of 1 large lemon
                      1 garlic clove, halved
                      ¾ teaspoon salt
                      ½ teaspoon ground cumin
                      2 to 4 tablespoons water
                      3 tablespoons olive oil

                      Directions 

                      1. Microwave the frozen edamame for 2 to 3 minutes, or per package instructions. 
                      1. In a food processor or blender, combine the edamame, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt, cumin, and 2 tablespoons of water. Puree the mixture until it’s smooth. If it needs more liquid, add up to 2 more tablespoons of water, 1 tablespoon at a time. With the food processor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil 1 tablespoon at a time, blending well to incorporate after each addition. 
                      1. Pour the hummus into 5 small storage containers. 

                      Storage: Store in refrigerator for up to 7 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. If frozen, thaw a container of the hummus in the refrigerator overnight before serving. 

                      Cooking tip: A food processor is best for this recipe, so you can drizzle the olive oil in slowly while the motor is running. If you’re using a blender, add 1 tablespoon of oil at a time and pulse 5 to 10 times to incorporate.
