Cinnamon Plantain Fritters (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
Cinnamon Plantain Fritters cook up in 15 minutes + make your gluten-free breakfast a breeze! I’m a little disappointed in myself – I’m willingly watching a reality show about WWE girls called Total Divas. It just happened to be on when I turned the TV on and the remote is just a foot […]
Top 10 Austin Paleo Guide
This was my third trip to Austin which has been named the Paleo Mecca of America (I unofficially made that up) as the host of the annual PaleoF(x) convention each April. The other two trip were for the Ironman Triathalon here in October – one of which I worked and the other which I watched a […]
My 10 Best AIP Recipes (Paleo/AIP)
10. Avocado Carob Fudge Bars A LOT of you guys have made these unique bars and I usually get the same comment, “They look so good, but they sound so weird [goes and makes bars] OMG THEY ARE SO GOOD. HIDE ME.” These three layer bars get a lot of lip service from us and […]
Sticky Antioxidant Energy Bites (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
I am forever looking for convenience foods that aren’t from the store… foods I can grab on the go, bring to the movies, on a spontaneous picnic, or offer up for snacks when I have friends over. I love making dried fruit energy balls with unique ingredients. How many times have we seen […]
Bacon-Wrapped Cinnamon Apples (Paleo, AIP, Whole30)
They say everything is better with bacon, but I have to admit I am not a bacon lover. Actually the smell of it cooking in the morning makes me incredibly nauseous! Weird. Word. BUT bacon-wrapped things make me very happy. One of the best restaurants in Chicago is called HB (stands for Home […]
Strawberry Peaches n’ Cream Smoothie (Paleo, AIP, Vegan)
We all need those simple recipes in our memory cache to utilize during busy mornings, harried afternoons, or just when you’re too dang hot to use your stove, oven, or grill. I whipped up this smoothie for my husband as he frolicked in the pool like an 8-year-old boy. We had a pleasant weekend […]
Lamb with Olive Tapenade Rice (Paleo, AIP, Whole30)
If you like olives, make this tonight. If you don’t like olives, we cannot be friends in real life. Fine. Yes, we can. We just can’t be the type of friends that sit around on a Thursday night throwing olives into each other’s mouths from across the living room. You know what I’m tired of […]
Shrimp Ceviche Salad (Paleo, AIP, Whole30)
My newest guest post recipe on Autoimmune Paleo is a triple threat: simple to prepare, nutritious, and refreshing enough for a hot summer day. I envision myself lounging around on the pool deck in mid-July after a long day playing in the ocean, kicking back with a fizzy Kombucha, ceviche, and some plantain […]
Italian Sausage Pizza (Paleo, AIP)
Italian Sausage Pizza made with homemade, nightshade-free sausage and sauce + an extra-extra dose of veggies… your family will love this grain-free, dairy-free pizza! I love a recipe where you can still get your meat and veggies but its a big enough departure from your typical daily meals that it feels […]
Bacon-Date Crusted Salmon (Paleo, AIP, Whole30)
You don’t see bacon and salmon together frequently in recipes, but I’m here to say that is a culinary mistake. Flaky salmon takes on a sweet, smokey flavor when crusted with chopped bacon, herbs, and a little lemon to round things out. This is a recipe easy enough to whip up on a […]
