At Good LFE, we believe that food should be a source of joy, connection, and nourishment, even when dealing with dietary restrictions. So, get ready to fire up those grills, grab your favorite apron, and let's dive into a world of flavorful, gut-friendly goodness!
Turkey Burger with Special Sauce
These burgers have some hidden vegetables to balance your meat intake, increase your vegetable servings, and help to keep your burgers from drying out. Serve with our classic special sauce for a savory finishing touch.
Traditional Mac & Cheese
A crowd pleasing favorite and still gut-friendly, this is a lovely mac and cheese to make and serve right out of the pot. Topped with extra-crispy crumbs for a crunchy touch of texture.
Sautéed Zucchini with Red Onions & Lime
Zucchini has a mild flavor and most people think it demands layers and layers of flavors, but in actuality, it can sing on its own with the addition of just a few simple ingredients.
Green Bean Potato Salad
A lighter version of potato salad and great for summer picnics. Leftovers can easily transform into a Niçoise salad. For a full lunchtime meal, add a handful of olives, a boiled egg, and tuna.
