ABOUT

Woman standing in front of antique truck with wooden snack board.

Welcome! I’m Nicole, the lady behind Finished with Salt. I’m a born and raised Oregonian. I’ve spent most of my life tinkering around in the kitchen. Obsessed with food and all it’s social forms of tradition and culture. I enjoy learning about food history and different techniques used in traditional cooking methods.

I am a busy Momma to a toddler who loves flavorful food which is reflected in my quick and simple recipes. I hope you love them as much as we do!

I started this blog in 2018 as a creative outlet after so much thought went into picking out my site name! Felt like naming a child! I decided on “Finished with Salt” for a few reasons. First, I’m obsessed with salt….. food NEEDS salt, I do not enjoy bland food! I also chose to dedicate this space and my work unto the Lord and in doing so a few verses came to mind, the first from Leviticus and you know any blog named after a verse in Leviticus means serious business!

“As an offering of first fruits you shall bring them to the Lord, but they shall not ascend for a soothing aroma on the altar. Every grain offering of yours, moreover, you shall season with salt, so that the salt of the covenant of your God shall not be lacking from your grain offering; with all your offerings you shall offer salt.”  Leviticus 2:12-13

“Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person.”  Colossians 4:6

Zoodle ramen + Thai citrus fusion with spicy garli Zoodle ramen + Thai citrus fusion with spicy garlic notes. Yep that would have been a better name for this Shrimp with Zucchini Noodle bowl but apparently no one is searching for that. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Anyway it’s good, REAL good and I make a version of it almost once a week. It’s healthy, nutrition-packed and super satisfying!

Bacteria gets a bad wrap. 🦠 It is often misunde Bacteria gets a bad wrap. 🦠 It is often misunderstood and villainized as the enemy that must be eliminated. But bacteria is not bad. We are made of bacteria.
.
“Good bacteria” is needed to balance “harmful bacteria”, it is the imbalance of bacteria that is dangerous. An imbalanced microbiome can contribute to inflammation, mental health decline, poor immune function and vitamin and mineral deficiencies. .

When balanced, bacteria serves us well and protects us well. It’s their job. Bacteria is crucial to every system of the body. The microbiome is involved in the circulatory, digestive, immune, neuroendocrine, musculoskeletal and many other systems. .

Here are some of the ways you can support the balance of your body’s microbiome:
.
🌿Consume a variety of whole foods.
🌿Eat lots of plants, organic when you are able.
🌿Consume more prebiotic fiber in foods like onion, garlic, asparagus, banana, artichoke and apple.
🌿Include fermented foods in your meals like sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir, etc.
🌿Drink clean water free of toxic additives.
🌿Sleep well, set yourself a routine bedtime. Rest is best when your body can predict it is coming. 🌿Spend time in nature.
🌿Cut out artificial sweeteners.
🌿Choose to wash your hands over sanitizing when possible, use natural sanitizers or wipes free of triclosan when hand washing isn’t an option.
🌿Select cleaning products that work without compromising your health. For this I recommend the EWG Healthy Living app that allows you to scan products for a rating. 🌿Reserve the use of antibiotics for when they are truly needed. 🌿Choose what you stress over. If you can’t control it, let it go. .
