A Journey to Wellness One Ingredient at a Time
Our Motivation
I prayed to learn the truth about food, nutrition and health.
I always say, there’s no such thing as healthy food, only better ingredients.
In developing The Keyes Ingredients, it is my sincere hope to educate, motivate and provide practical insights that will keep families from experiencing the challenges we walked through.
Educate

For 18 years we have celebrated thanksgiving with the same family and friends (who are family by now). We are thrilled when they arrive and sad when they leave. Both families adjusted to the first born leaving the nest (off to college) and reuniting was magical. Best one ever!! We tore down fall and set up for Christmas. As for dinner we cooked with “our eyes and our hearts” @annalisa_pompeo we purred our sweet potatoes in a broth that was simmering for hours, added lemon and spinach and the leftover chicken (from the 8 chickens we stuffed- yep!! Turkey allergy -so we do chickens) best part we topped it with a dollop of leftover stuffing:). We may or may not have added gravy… @yonderwaymarket yonderwaymarket. Breathe in … breathe out;) enjoy every minute. #thankful #christmasdecor #treesup #soup
Thankful for all of you!! Enjoy your family. #thankful #thanksgiving
During this thanksgiving season, I am thankful for the organic (pun intended) reach of our community. We received a generous donation from Lemm Elementary school!! They had a drive to create breast cancer awareness in October and chose us as a recipient of funds. Thank you Lemm elementary @lemmpto as you have sponsored a seat at our table for cancer patients to come and learn better ingredients and feel the love of the art of making meals together. Come visit us soon! We welcome all to spread the word and share our story!www.thekeyesingredients.com #lemmelementary #thankful #thekeyesingredients #cancerprevention #donate
Thank you @curiouselixirs for sponsoring a wonderful evening!! Our Keyes Ingredient’s cocktail/mocktail party was a huge hit! We all enjoyed sampling all the delicious flavors. I think number 6 and number 2 were the winners!! Education is key!! These non alcoholic beverages packed with great ingredients and adaptogens were suggested for those who choose not to drink, for the “mocktail in between the cocktails and to ensure reasonable sugar!! The mixes used in alcoholic beverages are crazy high in sugar unless purposefully crafted by you:) join the trend and enjoy one of these refreshing beverages:) the food included deviled eggs, stuffed mushrooms, hummus, and soup. Our class was filled with great questions and love for the cancer patients and survivors that were able to join us last night!! #cocktails #mocktails #curiouselixirs #thekeyesingredients
Today we are having our Christmas cocktail/Mocktail class up at our teaching kitchen. Feeling a little festive I took a picture of an thanksgiving arrangement I put together and sent it to a former student of mine, who owns a Floral shop. She, in return sent me these pictures of an ornament I made for her 20 years ago!! It was just the perfect way to put me in the Christmas spirit for this evening. Thank you Taylor!! #pineyrosefloral #relationships #christmas #thanksgiving #cocktailparty #thekeyesingredients
