Happy Thankful Thursday!
Today, let’s give thanks for a fruit that’s as rare as it is remarkable, the humble huckleberry. Often found growing wild in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest. They’re hand-harvested, seasonal and treasured for their deep, tart-sweet flavor.
But beyond their taste, these little berries pack a lot to be grateful for. They’re bursting with antioxidants, vitamin C, iron and potassium, nutrients that support immunity, energy and heart health. For generations, they’ve been celebrated as both food and medicine, nourishing people in simple yet powerful ways.
Enjoy them stirred into warm oatmeal or simmered into a naturally sweet jam. However you enjoy them, huckleberries remind us of nature’s abundance and the gratitude found in life’s rarest, most special gifts.
Here’s to the little things that bring big nourishment.
I started out over 10 years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
