National Cooking Day: CBD Recipes

National Cooking Day: CBD Recipes

Cooking is more than a daily task; it’s an act of love, creativity, and nourishment. Every year on September 25th, National Cooking Day encourages us to slow down, head to the kitchen, and reconnect with the art of preparing meals. 

For many, cooking is a form of self-care, and what better way to celebrate this holiday than by infusing your dishes with the wellness benefits of CBD?

At lost range.®, we’re passionate about creating high-quality, small-batch CBD products designed to elevate your daily routine. And yes, that includes your time in the kitchen. From sweet treats to savory mains, CBD can bring both relaxation and balance to your favorite recipes.

In this blog, we’ll explore:

Let’s roll up our sleeves and get cooking.

What Is National Cooking Day?

National Cooking Day was created to inspire people to get into the kitchen and discover the joy of cooking. In today’s fast-paced world, many of us rely heavily on takeout, meal kits, or prepackaged foods. While convenient, these options often lack the nutrition, mindfulness, and creativity that come from preparing a home-cooked meal.

Celebrating this holiday can mean:

  • Trying a new recipe
  • Cooking from scratch
  • Experimenting with fresh, local ingredients
  • Sharing a homemade meal with friends or family

It’s a reminder that cooking can be more than just a means to eat; it can be a creative outlet and a wellness ritual. And when you add CBD into the mix, you get a double dose of self-care: nourishment for the body and relaxation for the mind.

Why Cook with CBD?

CBD (cannabidiol) has become a household name, praised for its potential to help support relaxation, reduce everyday stress, ease discomfort, and promote balance in the body. While tinctures, topicals, and gummies are popular ways to consume CBD, the kitchen offers endless possibilities for incorporating CBD into your routine.

Here’s why more people are embracing CBD cooking:

  1. Easy to Incorporate: CBD oils and tinctures are easy to measure and add to everyday recipes without altering the flavor too much.
  2. Customizable Wellness: Cooking with CBD allows you to decide how much to use and when to add it, whether you want a subtle boost in your morning smoothie or a more potent dose in your evening tea.
  3. Enhances Everyday Rituals: Food and wellness go hand-in-hand. By infusing CBD into meals, you’re turning something ordinary (eating) into an opportunity for self-care.
  4. Delicious Pairings: CBD pairs well with a variety of flavors, earthy herbs, sweet honey, rich chocolate, and savory sauces.

Tips for Cooking with CBD

Before we dive into recipes, let’s cover some pro tips for cooking with CBD:

  1. Start Low and Go Slow: If you’re new to CBD, begin with a smaller amount and adjust as needed. Everyone’s body responds differently. 
  2. Avoid High Heat: CBD can lose its potency when exposed to high temperatures. Try to add CBD oil or tincture after cooking, or incorporate it into recipes that don’t require heat (like smoothies, dressings, and dips).
  3. Pair with Healthy Fats: CBD is fat-soluble, meaning it’s best absorbed when paired with fats like butter, olive oil, coconut oil, or avocado.
  4. Mix Well: Stir CBD evenly into your recipe to ensure consistent dosing.
  5. Choose the Right Product: At lost range.®, our CBD tinctures and Whipped CBD Honey are kitchen favorites. They’re versatile, high-quality, and designed for seamless use in food and drinks.
