Do you have food sensitivity? - Rachel Riggs joins Tonia to talk about her new book In Good Health
What an exciting and empowering talk I had with Rachel about her new book. She's the real deal!
IN GOOD HEALTH: Uncomplicated, Allergen-Aware Recipes for a Nourished Life by Rachel Riggs, founder of the popular Substack Minimalist Kitchen, is a beautifully photographed and deeply personal guide to nutrient-dense, allergen-conscious cooking—crafted for the millions navigating food sensitivities, autoimmune conditions, or simply seeking a more mindful approach to eating.
Rachel’s journey is as compelling as her recipes. A former specialty food shop owner, she was forced to reinvent how she cooked after developing a chronic illness that made her intolerant to many foods. Drawing from her experience in the food world and her deep involvement in chronic illness communities, Rachel has created a resource that speaks to both the wellness-curious and those with complex dietary needs.
With 75 simple and satisfying recipes that are free of gluten, grains, dairy, nightshades, soy, legumes, refined sugar, and peanuts, In Good Health offers more than just dietary substitutions. These are craveable, joyful dishes—like Slow Cooker French Onion Beef with vegetable mash, Asparagus Mimosa with Tarragon + Orange, and Mint Chocolate Mini Bundts—that prove nourishing food can be both healing and indulgent.
The book includes a foreword by Dr. Terry Wahls (The Wahls Protocol) and has already drawn praise from Jason Mraz and Adeena Sussman, who call it “an essential resource” and “beautiful, nourishing food that sacrifices nothing on the plate.”
