Ingredients for your luteal phase: chickpea, garlic, and onion. During the luteal phase, you want to focus on fiber-rich foods to support the large intestine in flushing out excess estrogen and consume nutrient-dense food as your body's metabolism naturally speeds up.
Onions are one of the easiest ingredients to add to a luteal phase recipe! They are high in antioxidants, help regulate blood sugar levels, and are a great source of manganese and potassium.
Chickpeas/Garbanzo beans are great for luteal because they are high in fiber which helps flush out excess estrogen, but also high in vitamin B6 which aids progesterone production. It's also a good source of plant-based protein - and protein helps stabilize blood sugar which can help balance your mood as you go into your menstrual phase.
Garlic is filled with anti-inflammatory properties, and studies actually show that the consumption of garlic helps significantly reduce premenstrual symptoms with a confidence interval of 95%!
Marry Me Chickpeas
Serves: 3 Active Time: 5 minutes Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
0.5 white onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp tomato paste

1 can chickpeas
1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
2 Tbsp nutritional yeast
1 tsp dried oregano
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
3 cups spinach
Process
Start by sautéing the onions for 4-5 minutes, or until they become translucent, in a large oiled pot or deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook for another minute.
Next, add all ingredients except spinach. Simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
Add spinach and mix until wilted. This should take roughly 2-3 minutes.
