Virtual Educational Experience on Nutrition and Menopause.

Learn about menopause, embrace its gifts, remedy its challenges, nourish yourself, and strategize for longevity.

I want to tell you how delighted and grateful I am for the class you are offering. Nearly every email that arrives I feel like, “ Oh Thank GOD, we’re going to tackle THAT thing!!” Those emails are fantastic: just the right amount of info to take on board without getting overwhelmed, a recipe to encourage and always so pretty.

I signed up for Sage+Sisters because I was not sleeping and it made every other area of my life difficult. After following many of the recommendations (including smoothies with flax seeds) my night sweats stopped and I started sleeping through the night and even better than when I was on BHRT. Hallelujah!

I found that the biggest benefit was normalizing all of the many changes that we go through in this transition.The reframing of menopause as a time of emergence and transformation was liberating. Basically I feel a lot better about perimenopause--I have tools to help with some aspects that are challenging, and I also have shifted my expectations.

Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Course Dinner, Entertaining, Lunch

Servings servings

Ingredients

3 Tbsp. coconut oil
1 red onion sliced 1/2 inch thick
3 Tbsp. fresh ginger minced
4 garlic cloves thinly sliced
1 dried red chili (whole)
1/4 cup white miso
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk (reserve remaining for chia pudding!)
1 cup water (or up to 1 1/2 cups)
1 1/2 lbs. salmon fillet cut into large, 2 inch pieces
5 ounces baby spinach (about 5 packed cups)
1 Tbsp. lime juice plus lime wedges for serving
1/4 cup fresh basil for serving
1/4 cup cilantro for serving
pinch sea salt
pinch black pepper

serving options

2 bags cauliflower rice (for dinner)
2 cups white rice (for lunch)
1 tsp. turmeric
1 bay leaves
4 whole cloves
1 cinnamon stick
5 cardamom pods

Instructions

In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat and add onion, ginger, red chili, and garlic, and season with salt and pepper. Cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add miso and cook, stirring frequently, until miso is carmelized (about 2 minutes.)
Add coconut milk and 1 cup water and bring to low boil over high heat. Cook until liquid is slightly reduced--about 5 minutes.
Stir in salmon, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer gently until just cooked through--about 5 minutes. Turn off heat and add in spinach and lime juice. Remove dried chili.
You will be serving the salmon over cauliflower rice or rice, depending on whether you are doing grain-free. For the cauliflower rice, sauté the cauliflower in olive oil, adding the spices mentioned, and cook (checking seasoning) until lightly browned (about 15 minutes.) For the rice, cook according to package instructions, bringing the water to a boil and adding the rice and all the spices, covering, and reducing heat to low. At end of either process, remove the spice pods, and serve.
Serve salmon over a bowl of rice, and garnish with cilantro, basil, and a lime wedge.
