Master List of Biblically Clean Recipes | Land of Honey

This page serves as a landing point for all sorts of Biblically clean recipes. Whether you're new to cooking in the way that Scripture tells us to, or you just need some fresh inspiration for meals, turn in here for links to Biblically clean breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack recipes.

Are you new to Biblically clean eating? Essentially, it's following Scripture's instructions about what we do and don't eat. You can learn more about it here.

A couple of things...

-The recipes I share here are mostly from other blogs. I'm not necessarily recommending everything else on those websites, but the specific recipes I give links to (and anywhere else on Land of Honey) meet the criteria for Biblically clean food.

-I try and stick to recipes that are made from real, whole, healthy ingredients. While you don't have to eat ultra healthy to have a Biblically clean diet, I do think it's wise to have the majority of our diets be foods that the Living God created, which promotes health in our bodies.

-For the most part these recipes are simple and straightforward and totally doable for any old weeknight. I try to find dishes that don't require a huge investment of time or money to make, so you can feed yourself and your family Biblically clean meals throughout busy seasons.

-I don't believe the Bible forbids mixing meat and dairy. See more on that here. That said, in the few recipes I share that mix red meat with cream or cheese, it would be easy to leave out one ingredient or the other, or to make a substitution such as ground turkey for beef, or olive oil for butter, if you prefer.

-A lot of people will tell you that only veganism is truly Biblically clean, but this idea is simply not supported by Scripture. While you could certainly make an argument that Adam and Eve's original diet was plant based and free of animal products, the Bible also tells us which animals are permissible to eat, and the Messiah describes eggs as good things and served fish to the disciples after he rose from the grave. If you want to have a vegan diet, go for it, but it's not accurate to say that the Bible requires this of believers.
