article Sunshine ☀️ = More Vitamin D for us all 🥰
We are absolutely loving the sunshine ☀️ this week! Not just because it stimulates the “happy hormone” serotonin in us humans. Sunshine is also nature’s secret ingredient for our pasture-meats and eggs. When our Kakadoodle chickens have access to sunlight, they can synthesize the vitamin D through their skin and then transfer those higher doses of vitamin D through their eggs. Same goes for our pasture and prairie-raised meats.
FEATURED PRODUCT
With all the Super Bowl buzz, let’s talk about a classic football food: chicken wings! Our pasture-raised chicken wings from Cornish Cross chickens who roam freely on lush pastures and are supplemented with Non-GMO feed. Crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor, these wings are a hit with every bite. No chemicals, just good food.
Pasture-raised chicken wings typically contain higher levels of essential nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and omega-3 fatty acids. This is because pasture-raised chickens have access to a diverse diet resulting in meat that is richer in nutrients.
RECIPE

- 3 pounds chicken wings split, tips removed
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line two rimmed baking sheets with foil and fit them with wire racks.
- In a large bowl, toss the wings with melted butter. Arrange the coated wings in a single layer on the wire racks, not touching each other.
- Sprinkle the wings with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
- Bake the wings until cooked through and their skin is browned and crispy, about 40 minutes.
- For extra-crispy skin, lower the oven temperature to 170℉ and keep the wings in the oven for 30-60 more minutes. Serve immediately.
