Cooking Tips:
1. Avocado oil and extra-virgin olive oil are our go-tos and can be used interchangeably. We like to cook with these oils because they’re rich in heart-healthy fats.
2. Coconut milk (full fat) is a creamy and delicious dairy-free alternative to milk and cream. While you might think that coconut milk will taste overwhelmingly like coconuts, the flavor is surprising subtle when added to savory soups and sauces.
3. We use low-sodium broth (whether it’s chicken, beef or vegetable) for all of our recipes because it allows us to add salt to taste and control the sodium level, which can get pretty high when using boxed broth.
