AIP 10 Minute Meals

This protocol isn't a culinary hobby. They hand you a list of prohibitions longer than a medieval penitent’s prayer book, then send you back into the fray of a forty-hour workweek, a demanding family, and a life that stops for no one. Instead of acknowledging the physical toll of surviving a Wednesday at 6:00 PM, the wellness industry offers a pious whisper: "Cook everything from scratch. Feed your sourdough starter twice a day. Ferment your own everything."

When your body is fighting itself and you have exactly 10 minutes of active work left in your tank, reach for pre-shredded bagged cabbage and a skillet that hisses the moment the pork hits it. This is a survival guide for the real world, for the exhausted warrior at the end of a twelve-hour day, whose body is staging a quiet rebellion.

These pages run on ground meat, coconut aminos, and the way my sister showed me to batch-cook rice on a Sunday afternoon. They are the honest meals built on the smell of garlic hitting hot oil, even when the rules are brutal. These are the recipes that real people, fighting real battles, actually cook.

From the breakfast that fuels a grueling day, to the quick dinner that offers solace, to the small acts of meal prep that pay dividends of sanity—these pages offer a path forward. A formula for roasting proteins and vegetables on a single sheet pan. A way to eat like a human, to nourish a healing body, without surrendering your entire life to the tyranny of the stove—
