Does it feel like cooking for your healing diet is your full-time job? Not sure how you'll ever feel better because it's SO. MUCH. WORK? What if there was a better way?
What if you could...
And most done-for-you meal plans include dishes you don't like and aren't optimized for your time and effort in the kitchen. Sure, you get recipes for compliant meals without having to think about it, but by the time you finish making them, you're so exhausted you just want to pass out on the couch.
It’s so easy to become defeated and think, “I’ll never be able to keep up - so what’s the point?”
The good news is that there is an easier way.
By utilizing simple meal prep techniques, you can significantly cut down on the amount of time and energy you spend in the kitchen yet still have incredibly delicious meals that fit within your healing diet.

Always try to cook once for multiple meals. Cooking every single meal from scratch is where most people get burnt out. If you can make several servings for a dish or component of a dish, eat some now, and save the rest for later, the time and energy saved really adds up!
Meals can be frozen BEFORE cooking. Ever heard of dump-and-go freezer cooking? You chop, dice, and prep vegetables, proteins, herbs, and spices for a meal, put them all into a bag and throw in your freezer. You don't actually COOK the meals until you want to eat them - and even then, it's typically just dumping them into a slow cooker. You can easily get 5-7 meals prepped in an hour this way, which gives you SO MUCH peace of mind that there are meals in your freezer waiting for you.
You'll save time by cooking dishes in the correct order. When you meal prep, make sure to start the recipes that take the longest first, and then save the more hands-on type recipes for when other things are simmering or roasting in the oven. This way you get way more done in the same amount of time. And it also helps to order it in a way that you don't even have to wash the pots and bowls in between - just using them again since the recipes are similar can save a lot of time as well.
Store meal components in your freezer. Stop thinking of only freezing complete meals. You can freeze components instead and then have an endless variety of meals to mix-and-match at your fingertips. A sauce + a protein + a side can be made quite differently the next night by using a different sauce + same protein + different side, etc. You'll never say you're bored with your meals again by doing this!
Use easy techniques for cooking. Keeping track of 3 different pots on a stove takes up quite a bit of brain power (which sucks when you're already suffering from brain fog), not to mention drains your energy. But if instead you just chop up some veggies, toss them on a sheet pan with a protein and seasonings, and then throw that in the oven for 30 minutes? You can sit and rest while your meal cooks!
Maybe you're looking at this and saying "Yeah, this is great, but I don't have the time to figure out how to do these."...
... or you're feeling frustrated because you have tried to find recipes that work for these but it takes so much time! (and you get lost down the Pinterest rabbit hole, wasting hours)
... or you've tried to do this with recipes and they come out a disgusting, freezer-burned, tasteless mess. Time, energy, and money wasted.
Here's the uncomfortable truth: You'll ALWAYS struggle with spending too much time (and money) in the kitchen unless you have recipes and meal prep instructions that have been specially designed and tested to be easy, save time, and work well.
But once you get those? Cooking for your health becomes infinitely easier.
Especially when you combine several techniques together!
If you want the peace of mind that you have healing food ready to go without spending excessive hours of your life to make it, you need recipes and plans designed for efficiency.

Is Prep & Reset right for you?
Prep & Reset IS for you if:
✅ You are doing a grain-free, gluten-free, dairy-free diet like Paleo or AIP
✅ You want to make things a lot easier than they are now for you to cook compliant meals
✅ You are excited about using food as a powerful tool to get your health back
This is NOT for you if:
❌ You don't want to cook at all (you'd be better off getting pre-prepped food)
❌ You need a low-FODMAP or low-Histamine diet on top of a Paleo or AIP diet. There are recipes that are compliant for those, but they aren't specified nor plentiful
❌ You are on a vegetarian or vegan diet (I don't recommend combining these with Paleo or AIP)
In 2014, after a long downhill trend with my two autoimmune diseases, Hashimoto’s and Celiac, I wound up so exhausted that I could barely get off the couch to play with my kids, be a useful, contributing employee at work because my brain fog was so bad, and just enjoy life. I suffered from a myriad of other unpleasant symptoms and was scared that I was going to get stuck like that for the rest of my life. I had completely forgotten what “normal” felt like.
My doctor had basically given up on me, telling me that it probably was all in my head because the thyroid medication he had me on was “literally the only thing that would work.”
Not being satisfied with that answer nor with my quality of life – I searched until I found the Autoimmune Protocol.
Not going to lie…. it was hard.
Back then there were hardly ANY recipes available. I missed bread, Starbucks, eggs, and cheese like no one’s business, and I felt like cooking for it was my full-time job.
Yet after only a few short weeks I had amazing results, so I stuck with it and wound up feeling better than I had in over 15 years!
Ever since I've obsessed over creating recipes and making the whole thing easier so that everyone can enjoy the same amazing transformation that I did.
To recap, here's what you get with Prep & Reset:

I have hundreds of satisfied customers that say things like “I made Michele’s Thai Chicken Soup for dinner tonight. Added baby bella mushrooms because I had some on hand and it sounded good, but otherwise I stuck to the recipe exactly. I highly recommend this soup. It’s so savory and satisfying. Even my 3 yr old ate it up and drank the yummy broth.”
...
and “My favorite breakfast is Michele’s Parfaits. They make me look forward to breakfast again!”
But I also am a food-lover who has been eating a mostly Paleo diet (and the AIP diet during parts of that) for over 10 years and developing recipes that whole time, so I know what works and doesn’t and know all the tricks for getting flavor from the ingredients available.
The step-by-step meal prep plans and the dump-and-go meal plans have been created so that those with very little time and energy can accomplish them. They're meant to SAVE you a ton of time. They’ve also been designed with the knowledge that you may be suffering from brain fog - so they’re easy to read and comprehend.
However – if you really cannot do it, they’ve been written in a way that you could hire a local high school or college student, or even a stay-at-home mom looking to do something while her kids are at school, to cook these for you for just a few hours. These inexpensive options would get delicious Paleo or AIP-compliant food in your fridge, pantry, and freezer, and help them out as well!
While there are recipes that would adhere to these further restrictions, there are no indicators letting you know if they are suitable for these diets. Therefore this may not be the best solution for you.
Yes! I've been creating recipes for the Autoimmune Protocol for 9 years now, so I am WELL familiar with how many people can't tolerate coconut. Yet I also know how many recipes out there are coconutty. Therefore I started being super aware of this and the majority of my recipes are either coconut-free or have instructions on how to easily substitute for coconut if necessary.
Most meal plan memberships offer you done-for-you meal plans that tell you what meals to eat and give you recipes for each. However, they typically aren’t focused on saving you time, and most are cook from scratch for each meal. So while the thinking has been done for you, significant time is still needed to prep and cook the meals - at every single meal time. Many people have found them to be extremely difficult when dealing with a family or low energy. Plus, if you don’t like or don’t want one or more of the meals suggested, it can be quite discouraging.
These plans are meant to be done when you have time and energy so that you can save the dishes for those times when you do NOT have time or energy. And as you work through more sessions, you’ll have even more variety to choose from at meal times, so you can have an endless combination of foods to create a tasty meal in minutes.
For sure there are a lot of recipes out there - I have a lot on my free Thriving Autoimmune website too! But step-by-step meal prepping guides? Dump-and-go freezer meal plans? Recipes specifically designed to be frozen? Those you'll be hard-pressed to find anywhere else. Those are the big time, energy, and money savers. The recipes you find online are the ones that will most likely take up a lot more of your time and energy. And with P&R, all of the recipes are in one place, most with demo videos, no ads, and more are added all the time.
Plus you get ALL of my ebooks for sale in my shop AND the bonus masterclasses, which people have raved about and said made all the difference in their AIP journey.
You get Lifetime access, so there's no rush to use them and they'll be there for you when you feel the need to get ahead by meal prepping or to find some inspiration for your next meal. Plus you'll get any and all updates to Prep & Reset.
