There's something incredibly satisfying about a sizzling stir-fry that comes together in minutes but tastes like you've been cooking for hours. This Pepper Steak recipe delivers exactly that – tender strips of beef, crisp-tender bell peppers, and sweet onions, all coated in a rich, glossy sauce made with my Ramen Beef Bone Broth that's perfect over steamed cauliflower rice.
Prep Time: 20 minutes Cook Time: 15 minutes Servings: 4
Ingredients
For the Beef and Marinade:
1½ pounds beef sirloin or flank steak, sliced thin against the grain
2 tablespoons coconut aminos
1 tablespoon arrowroot powder
1 tablespoon avocado oil
For the Sauce:
¼ cup coconut aminos sauce
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon honey or coconut sugar
1 teaspoon arrowroot powder
½ cup Dr. Kellyann's Ramen Beef Bone Broth
1 teaspoon sesame oil
¼ teaspoon black pepper
For the Stir-Fry:
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 large green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 large red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 large onion, cut into wedges
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
Cooked cauliflower rice, for serving
Instructions:
In a medium bowl, combine the sliced beef with 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder, and 1 tablespoon oil. Mix well to coat and let marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
In a small bowl, whisk together all sauce ingredients until the arrowroot powder is fully dissolved. Set aside.
Heat your wok or largest skillet over high heat until smoking. Add 1 tablespoon oil and swirl to coat.
Add half the marinated beef in a single layer. Don't stir for the first 30 seconds – let it sear. Then stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes until browned but still slightly pink inside. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining beef.
Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the wok. Add the bell peppers and onions. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender and slightly charred at the edges.
Add the garlic and ginger, stir-frying for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Return the beef to the wok along with any accumulated juices. Give the sauce a quick stir (the cornstarch settles), then pour it over everything.
Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats everything glossily. The beef should be just cooked through.
Serve immediately over hot steamed cauliflower rice (or rice of your choice if you are on the 80/20 plan.)

You can't love bone broth like I do and not love Phở. (Pronounced "fuh.")
Pho is a Vietnamese soup made with a beef/bone broth, noodles, and thinly sliced beef that's usually served with bean sprouts, chili, lime, and Thai basil.
Pho is generally made with a rich, savory bone broth infused with a delicious array of flavors, served with flat rice noodles, and garnished with fresh vegetables and herbs.

Prep time: 15 min • Cook time: 20 min • Yield: 4-6 servings
Ingredients
2 tablespoons avocado oil or coconut oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 scallions, cut into 1/ 2-inch pieces
5 slices fresh ginger
4 cups (1 quart) homemade bone broth OR 4 packets Ramen Beef Bone Broth + 32 ounces of water
1 cup roughly chopped bok choy
1 cup sliced mushrooms
2 tablespoons coconut aminos
1/2 teaspoon Celtic or pink Himalayan salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black or white pepper
Dash of cayenne pepper
2 cups zoodles (about 2 medium zucchini, spiralized; see Note)
3-4 oz. of beef (cooked and thinly sliced)
For Serving (Optional)
Thai basil Sriracha sauce
Mung bean sprouts
Lime wedges
Directions
In a large stockpot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic, scallions, and ginger, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring for 3 to 4 minutes, to soften scallions.
Raise heat to medium-high and add broth, bok choy, mushrooms, coconut aminos, salt, black pepper, and cayenne. When soup begins to boil, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.
Add zoodles and cilantro, and remove from heat. Serve warm, with Thai basil, Sriracha, mung bean sprouts, and lime wedges, if desired.
NOTE: Most stores sell pre-cut zoodles to save you time in the kitchen. If you prefer to make them at home and you don’t have a spiralizer, there are other methods you can use to make zucchini pasta.
Julienne peelers will give you straight, skinny zoodles; mandoline or old-fashioned vegetable peelers produce wide, flat zoodles.
You can also try konjac noodles in the dish for a zero-carb alternative that is very, very close to a rice noodle texture and soaks up the fragrant bone broth flavors perfectly.
Buon appetito!

Grilled Romaine Salad with Lemon Anchovy Dressing
by Dr. Kellyann
on Aug 19 2025
Prep time: 20 min • Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
Salad
2 medium heads Romaine lettuce, washed and left whole
2 teaspoons coconut oil, melted
Dressing
⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon, about 2 tablespoons (Meyer’s lemons are even better!)
1 tablespoons water
2 tbsp. Greek Lemon Chicken Bone Broth
2 teaspoons anchovy paste or 1 anchovy fillet
½ teaspoon finely minced garlic
Caper Topping
1 teaspoon coconut oil
1 to 2 teaspoons capers, rinsed
Freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Preheat grill to medium high, about 400ºF.
While the grill preheats, combine all salad dressing ingredients in a small bowl and whisk to blend, or put all ingredients in a jar with a tight-fitting lid and shake vigorously.
Preheat small sauté pan with 1 teaspoon coconut oil on medium high heat. Add capers and fry for about 3 to 4 minutes until crispy.
Cut Romaine heads in half the long way, keeping the core intact so most of leaves remain connected to the core. Some of the outer-most leaves will separate; save them for another use. Melt 2 teaspoons coconut oil and brush the cut half of the Romaine. Place Romaine halves on the grill cut-side down. Grille until charred and slightly wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Brush the tops of the Romaine heads, turn and repeat grilling process.
Plate Romaine, top with dressing, sprinkle on capers and freshly ground pepper. Serve immediately.
This recipe pairs great with Lamp Chops.

Feel free to add spinach or garnish as desired.
PREP TIME: 10 Minutes | COOK TIME: 30 Minutes | Makes 4 servings
Ingredients
2 tablespoons coconut oil or ghee
½ onion, finely chopped
1 pound ground turkey
1 ½ teaspoons Bell’s seasoning or dried italian seasoning
2 apples, cut into cubes
8 eggs
Dash of garlic powder
1- 1 ½ teaspoons Celtic or pink Himalayan salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
⅛-¼ teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
Move an oven rack to the center of the oven. Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F. Melt the oil or ghee in an ovenproof skillet, such as cast iron, over medium-high heat. Cook the onion for 3-5 minutes, or until softened. Add the turkey and seasoning and cook for about 10 minutes, or until no longer pink. Add the apples (and spinach, if desired).
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with garlic powder, salt, pepper, and cinnamon. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and use a fork to distribute the ingredients evenly in the egg mixture. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the eggs begin to firm.

Slow Cooker Pork and Sauerkraut
by Dr. Kellyann
on Aug 07 2023
Prep time: 15 min • Cook time: 8– 10 hr • Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients
2 pounds boneless pork shoulder, trimmed of excess fat and blotted dry
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ tablespoon coconut oil
2 medium onions, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 bay leaf
Three 14.5-ounce cans sauerkraut
Directions
Cut the pork shoulder into 3- to 4-inch chunks and season generously with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add coconut oil.
When oil is melted, add the pork, browning on all sides. You’ll probably need to cook the pork in two batches so you don’t overcrowd the pan. Transfer pork to the slow cooker.
In the same pan, cook the onions until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Transfer the onions and garlic to the slow cooker. Add the bay leaf.
Place the sauerkraut in a colander and rinse with cold water. Squeeze out excess moisture and pile the sauerkraut on top of the pork. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low until the pork is fork tender, about 8 to 10 hours.
Notes You can use sauerkraut from a can or bag; just check the ingredient label for non-Paleo ingredients. Serve with unsweetened applesauce and Mashed Cauliflower.

Broth Loading Chilled Cucumber Soup
by Dr. Kellyann
on Jul 11 2023
I’m obsessed with cucumbers. Because they contribute to good health and keep you slim. Plus, they work miracles when it comes to your skin. What more could you ask for?!
Cucumbers are excellent for hydration...
When it comes to your skin, dehydration causes fine lines and wrinkles to appear. Plus, your skin becomes dull, feels dry and tight, and is easily irritated. Ugh! This is why I always stress the importance of hydration. And because cucumbers are made up of approximately 95% water, eating them is a delicious way to keep your cells hydrated and your skin plump and juicy. Especially during warm summer months.
Cucumbers are packed with antioxidants...
Antioxidants are necessary to protect your cells from free radicals. Some antioxidants can also repair cellular damage, prevent free radicals from being formed from certain toxins, and even prevent cancerous cells from growing. Essentially, antioxidants are the key to optimal health as well as slowing down the aging process–inside and out. And the antioxidants in cucumbers specifically have been linked to reducing inflammation, preventing cancer, and improving heart health. Yes, please!
Cucumbers are anti-bloating...
Cucumbers can help rid your belly of bloating. Thanks to a synergistic combination of caffeic acid, vitamin C, silica, and water. Cucumbers contain a variety of other vitamins and minerals that also promote optimal health and beautiful skin. Some of the them include:
Vitamin K: essential for forming blood clots as well as strong bones
Pantothenic acid: a B-vitamin involved in producing energy as well as burning fat
Biotin: a B-vitamin that helps produce natural oils in your skin to keep it soft and moist
Potassium: an electrolyte that regulates blood pressure and maintains good kidney function
Magnesium: a mineral necessary for over 300 vital functions in the body as well as youthful skin
Silica: a mineral that helps build strong teeth, bones, nails, and hair --- With all the benefits of cucumbers you'll want to look for more way to add them to your diet, and a chilled cucumber soup with collagen-rich bone broth is the perfect way recipe for summertime!
Broth Loading Chilled Cucumber Soup
Prep Time: 15 Min – Cook Time: 12 Min- Yield: 4-6 servings
1 cup water
4 medium cucumbers, peeled, seeded, and sliced
1/2 cup yellow onion
1 teaspoon Celtic or Pink Himalayan Sea Salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 cups ( 1 quart) Chicken Bone Broth
1/2 teaspoon arrowroot powder, blended with one teaspoon of water
1 small bay leaf
1 cup unsweetened plain almond milk, not vanilla flavored
1 teaspoon minced fresh dill
1 teaspoon minced fresh Italian parsley
1 teaspoon minced fresh chives
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
Bring water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the cucumbers, onion, salt and pepper, and cover. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are very soft. Puree using a food processor, blender or immersion blender until smooth. Bring bone broth to a simmer and add the arrowroot powder, bay leaf, and pureed cucumbers. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring until soup thickens. Cool soup to room temperature and add the almond milk and fresh herbs. Refrigerate. Serve the soup very cold.
NOTE: Use caution when pureeing soup in a blender or food processor. Work in small batches and cover the top of the sealed blender or processor with a kitchen towel to avoid getting burned.

2 unpeeled carrots, scrubbed and roughly chopped
2 stalks celery, including leafy part, roughly chopped
1 medium onion, roughly chopped

How Can Bone Broth Support Wellness?
Bone broth is trending among health enthusiasts due to itsincredible benefits.
It’s rich in nutrients such as gelatin and collagen, which can help maintain skin, hair, and nail health. Along with calcium and amino acids, such as glycine, these components make bone broth a great way to supplement your body with nutrients that can support overall wellness.
Dr. Kellyann's bone broth can also help to support weight loss and manage cravings. It's low-carb and gluten-free, making it a great addition to a keto, paleo, or whole30 diet.
Where Can You Get Bones for Bone Broth?
There are several places where you can find good soup bones. One option is to use a whole chicken and remove the meat, then use the leftover carcass for the broth. You can also check out your local butcher or whole foods store for leftover beef bones or chicken feet.
When making bone broth, it's essential to use high-quality ingredients, such as organic veggies and seasonings. You can use a stockpot on the stovetop to cook your bone broth or throw the bones into a slow cooker or pressure cooker for added convenience.
If you're too busy to make your own, you can simply useDr. Kellyann's Bone Broth to get the benefits of bone broth in a convenient powdered format.
Bone Broth: The New Superfood
Bone broth has been around for centuries, but its health benefits have contributed to its recent popularity as a "superfood.”. Dr. Kellyann Petrucci, bestselling author and expert on the topic, has also popularized bone broth throughDr. Kellyann's Bone Broth Diet.

If you're comfortable making bone broth now and want to try something a little different why not try duck bone broth. It has a richer flavor than chicken bone broth and works great in all kinds of soups.
Prep: 15 min • Cook: 4 to 6 hrs • Total Time: 6-8 hrs • Yield: varies depending on pot size; these ingredients are sufficient for 2 to 3 quarts broth
Ingredients:
2 duck carcasses
6 to 8 chicken feet or 1 pig's foot (optional)
Enough purified cold water to just cover the bones in the pot; the pot should be big enough to add 2 to 3 quarts of water
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
2 to 4 large carrots, scrubbed and roughly chopped
3 to 4 stalks of organic celery, including the leafy part, roughly chopped
1 medium onion, cut into large chunks
1 clove garlic
2 teaspoons black peppercorns
Small bunch of fresh herbs such as parsley, sprigs of thyme and rosemary, bay leaf, and marjoram
Put duck carcasses into a roasting pan and place in a preheated 400º oven. Roast duck for one hour until the bones are well browned. This step isn't necessary, but it greatly enhances the flavor of duck bone broth.
Place all the bones in a slow cooker or large stockpot. Add the vinegar and enough purified water to cover everything by 1 inch. Cover the pot.
On medium heat, bring the water to a simmer. Use a shallow, wooden spoon to carefully skim the film off the top of the broth. If you are cooking in a crock pot, you will have to wait until the water gets warm before skimming, but you can continue with the next step.
Add all the remaining ingredients and reduce the heat to low. You want the broth to barely simmer. Skim occasionally over the first 2 hours, and be sure the bones stay beneath the water. You may have to add water during the cooking process.
Cook for at least 4 hours or up to 6. Turn off the cooker or remove the pot from the heat.
Using tongs or a large, slotted spoon, remove all the bones. Pour the broth through a fine mesh strainer and discard the solids.
Let cool on the counter before refrigerating. You can skim off the fat easily after the broth is chilled. If you do skim off the fat, retain it for roasting vegetables.
When chilled, the broth should be very gelatinous. The broth will keep for five days in the refrigerator and three or more months in your freezer.
Notes: You use chicken feet or a pig's foot for the cartilage, which is necessary for good broth and the health benefits of gelatin, collagen, and calcium. Neither chicken nor pig's feet will impart flavor to the broth. If you use chicken feet, you must remove the outer yellow skin if the butcher has not already done so.
To do this, immerse them in boiling water for 10 to 20 seconds, and they will peel easily. If you cook them any longer, peeling them is nearly impossible because they become rubbery. It's also easier to peel them before they are frozen. You can cut off the claws if you choose.
If your crock pot is small (2 quarts or less), you can cut back on the quantities in the recipe.
Measurements need not be specific in making broth. However, you'll have less work to do if you use a large kettle or stockpot on the stovetop. Since you might use the broth in various recipes, I prefer not to salt it while cooking.
Enjoy!
What Are the Benefits of Duck Bone Broth?

What Parts of the Duck Should You Use?
Using the right parts of the duck is crucial to making the best possible bone broth. To make duck bone broth, you'll need a whole duck or a duck carcass, including the wingtips, duck feet, and neck. Roasting the duck beforehand in duck fat and veggies like carrots, onions, and fresh thyme can add an extra layer of flavor to your broth.
If you're short on time or just want a convenient way to enjoy the benefits of bone broth, Dr. Kellyann's Bone Broth Liquids and Powdered Bone Broths are a delicious and hassle-free solution.

With the right ingredients and a little bit of time and patience, you can make a flavorful and nutritious broth.Whether you're making soups, stews, or ramen, replacing chicken stock with duck bone broth can add depth and richness to any dish. Start making duck bone broth and discover the many benefits of this nutrient-packed food.

What Kind of Tomatoes Should You Use?

To add more flavor to your tomato base, use garlic cloves, red pepper, and yellow onion to create a delicious and nutritious puree.
To make the tomato puree, sauté the garlic, bell pepper, and onion in olive oil until soft and fragrant. Add tomatoes and cook everything down until it's thick and jammy.
You can balance out the acidity of the tomatoes with some chicken broth or chicken stock. If you prefer, vegetable stock or vegetable broth are also great options.
The great thing about making tomato puree is that you can experiment with different veggies, spices, and bone broth flavors to create unique flavor profiles. And since you can make it in batches, you'll always have some on hand to use in various recipes, including this easy tomato soup recipe.
