Spiced Coconut Bison Meatballs Postpartum Warming Recipe

Warming the body during postpartum can be done in so many different ways. Some mommas love using spices in their foods like turmeric, ginger and cumin. Other mommas like to use temperature like warm soups, steamy tea and hot stews. And there are the majority of mommas that do a blend of both to bring healing to their body.

Nourishing ingredients inspire my everyday care for postpartum mommas. I spend so much time learning about healing ingredients and how to best support the postpartum recovery journey. When I think of nourishing high quality meats I always think of Us wellness Meats. The quality of the meat is unlike any other and I know mommas can tastes the difference!
