About the ingredients

Protein-rich pasta

Using pasta that uses protein sources like, edamame, lentils and beans can be a really great way to get in the healthy, light and satisfying proteins. Although we don’t need to overdo eating protein, protein is important to have on a regular and balanced basis to help rebuild and restore skin cells if you have eczema. Proteins help make the cells that produce our skin, hair and nails. And having quality sources of them is helpful for building stronger, more resilient and supple, shiny versions of them.

Importance of versatility

Versatility, the ability to change things up and make something my own is one of my favorite things in life. This is especially true because of having eczema because having the ability to customize your dish allows you the freedom to add in healthier, fresher, and more beneficial foods to your diet rather than being at the mercy of whatever the chef prefers to use or having surprise allergenic ingredients sneak their way into your plate causing an inflammatory response. Being able to cook your own dishes to your liking with quality organic ingredients that you know are safe puts you in complete control which bypasses any need to feel anxious about whether or not what you’re going to eat is going to trigger an itchfest or not.
