One of my favorite kitchen habits is making extra sourdough dough and freezing it for later.

That way, breakfast pizza is an option when mornings get busy! Eggs, sausage, cheese, and a sourdough crust make a fun change from the usual breakfast routine.

I just shared the recipe on the Nourishing Modern Families blog.

What's the first fermented food you ever tried?

Maybe it was homemade sauerkraut your grandmother made, a jar of pickles, yogurt, or even sourdough bread.

Traditional food skills have been passed down through generations, and I'd love to hear which ones you've experienced!

At Nourishing Modern Families, I enjoy helping families bring traditional foods back into their kitchens, one simple step at a time.

Tell me in the comments: What was your first fermented food?

The air is getting cooler, and fall is right around the corner! Nothing says comfort food like a pot of homemade stew simmering on the stove.

What's your favorite stew to make when the weather turns cold? Beef, chicken, vegetable, or a family recipe passed down through generations?

Share your favorite in the comments! I'd love to hear what's cooking in your kitchen.

What's Happening on the Western Slope?

Have you ever wondered why traditional recipes often call for soaking or fermenting grains before cooking them?

We'll explore traditional methods for preparing grains and make them practical for everyday family breakfasts. We'll talk about overnight oats, soaked pancakes, fermented porridges, and ways to make breakfast preparation easier.

No experience needed—just come ready to learn!

Cost: $25

I'd love to have you join us.

🍂 Fall in the Kitchen: Homemade Chicken Meat Stock

As the weather cools down, I find myself turning back to the basics in the kitchen.

A pot of homemade chicken meat stock is one of those simple traditional foods I love having on hand. It starts with a whole chicken, a few vegetables, water, and time on the stove.

I like making a batch to use throughout the week in soups, sauces, and easy family meals. It's a practical way to bring traditional cooking into everyday life without making things complicated.

If you've never made your own, I've shared my recipe to help you get started!

Have you ever made homemade meat stock, or do you usually reach for the carton at the store?

I'll put my recipe in the comments!

Healthy babies begin long before pregnancy.

We spend so much time preparing for baby—but what about preparing before conception?

The health and nourishment of both Mom and Dad matter.

And you don't have to change everything at once. Sometimes it starts with one simple change.

💬 If you could go back and give yourself one piece of advice before your first pregnancy, what would it be?

Over the next few weeks, I'll be talking about Birth, Babies & Conception — Nourishing the Next Generation.
