About The Book

It’s microbiome-friendly meals with a Southern spin in this follow-up cookbook to the life-enhancing My Kitchen Cure so you can heal your gut and and fight a host of autoimmune diseases while enjoying 130+ delicious whole foods recipes with a farm house spin.

Mee McCormick, real food cooking expert and author of My Kitchen Cure, brings a Southern twist to comfort food classics with more than 130 recipes that heal your gut, reduce inflammation, and reverse chronic autoimmune diseases. Best of all? Mee offers a completely customizable approach to adapt recipes for different dietary needs, whether you’re gluten-free, Paleo, keto, or vegan.

From breakfast bowls and immune-boosting smoothies to gut-friendly soups, salads, dinners, and desserts, this four-color cookbook will become your go-to kitchen resource, freeing you from bland-tasting healthy food and the nightly question: “What’s for dinner?” Recipes include:

Kentucky Caramel Chicken, Cranberry Hot Wings, Grain-Free Fried Chicken, Sizzlin’ Short Ribs, Super Creamy Veggie Mac & Cheese, Roasted Red Pepper Soup with Polenta Fingers, Roasted Squash & Sweet Potato Soup, Summertime Zucchini Soup, Grilled Peach Salad with Basil Chicken & Peach Cider Honey Dressing, Black Rice Salad with Snap Peas and Ginger-Sesame Vinaigrette, Caramel Apple Pancakes, Raspberry Lemon Keto Muffins, Farm Fresh Eggs & Sausage Stuffed Bell Peppers, Berry Cobbler, Chocolate Brownies, Key Lime Tart, White Bean Cupcakes, and Chocolate Avocado Mousse with Coconut Milk.

Mee first started cooking when Crohn’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and Hashimoto's delivered debilitating daily pain. When conventional treatments couldn’t help, Mee found relief in a surprising place: her kitchen. Through relentless recipe testing, she put her condition into remission and completely restored her health with gut-friendly whole foods, most of which she grew and harvested on her family’s farm outside of Nashville, Tennessee.

Once Mee was well, she opened a farm-to-table restaurant, sharing locally grown and seasonal foods with her community—some of whom drive hours to get a taste of Pinewood’s Grain-Free Fried Chicken. Pinewood Kitchen is unique in that every meal is created with the intention to serve everyone with the same deliciousness regardless of dietary restrictions.

Whether you want to eat healthier or you have diabetes, lupus, celiac, Crohn’s, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, or another autoimmune issue, you’ll find a wealth of delicious, nutritious recipes. You’ll also discover:

· The importance of intestinal health and how to improve your own gut microbiome
· Which foods are nutritional powerhouses and which you must avoid
· How to eat real food every day without breaking the bank

Mee is living proof that you can change your fate by what’s on your plate—her recipes will help you prepare delicious food that brings you and your family together around the table.
