STRAIGHT FROM JENN

Hi Reader,

March seems to be the month that shows those first hints of spring. It has us dreaming of fresh starts, warmer weather, and more activity. It's the perfect time to stay a little cozy, start refreshing, reflecting and reseting—whether that looks like changing up what you cook (bring on lighter soups, salads, and food for the grill), clearing out the clutter in you home, curating a wardrobe that feels effortlessly you, perhaps deeper questions in your relationships, or taking stock of what's truly essential to you in your life.

This issue I wanted to share not just all my fav spring time recipes, but great Spring time revamps, and just what's helping us get ready for the warm. Let's embrace the start of the seasonal wake up together!

Chicken, Spinach, and Gnocchi Soup

This hearty and delicious recipe is perfect for a cool spring day. It's creamy, satisfying, and fresh—everything you want from a spring soup.

Product I'm Loving

Gourmend Bone Broths

Delicious First, Gentle Always

I discovered Gourmend last year and have fallen in love with their bone broths. They are delicious! Not only does Gourmend offer bone broths, but they also offer other cooking essentials that replace symptom-causing ingredients with low FODMAP alternatives. If you have digestive sensitivity I highly recommend giving this brand a try!
