When Every Answer is ‘No’

I'm a social worker. Half of the kids I work with are 11 year old boys who struggle with anger outbursts due to the trauma, sickness, and emotional pain they've had to experience in their lives. I am the one who works with the family and providers to develop a "crisis plan" so everyone knows what to do to be safe and calm when a potential crisis comes up. The one "trigger" on nearly every single little boy's list is "being told 'no'." I feel ya, kid.

My 11 Favorite Whole30 Recipes

About half of them are super easy to make, and they other half aren’t complicated, but are just too yummy not to include! Try them and let me know how you like them!
