Paleo Stromboli (AIP)

      Can you believe these grain-free, dairy-free AIP-friendly & Paleo Stromboli actually have the taste & feel of a gooey, cheesy pizza pocket? The filling possibilities are endless but I really love the simplicity of prosciutto & rosemary.   When I first made this recipe over 3 years ago, I had no idea […]

Instant Pot Maple Bacon Balsamic Pulled Pork (Paleo, AIP)

maple bacon balsamic pulled pork

  I made a big, well big to me, announcement on social media yesterday! If you’ve been following G&E from its inception in 2014, you’ll have noticed I have written a few articles on fertility (or infertility as was my case) with autoimmune disease. I struggled with this issue for my entire 20’s (I’ll be […]

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 […]

Plantain Chips & Avocado Dip [AIP/Whole30/Paleo]

I was deadset on some pseudo-Mexican food tonight, so I combined all remotely Mexican-y ingredients in my kitchen for this bomb meal. The shredded pork is Nom Nom Paleo’s famous recipe for Kalua Pig made in my Instant Pot. Best investment I have ever made for my kitchen by the way. It makes batch cooking so […]

Triple Meat Poutine [AIP-Friendly]

Okay, so between this recipe and my one for Beaver Tails/”Queues de castor”, I am taking you all on a Paleo journey of my birth city, Montreal. Now these are no replacement for the real thing. Traditional poutine is fairly soggy, salty, and drenched in MSG-laden gravy and cheese curds, but we can all imagine […]

Sweet & Tangy Pulled Pork

      Pulled Pork cooked in cranberries for a tangy, sweet, unique Instant Pot main that will be on the table in a little over an hour!     I’ve been hitting a funky wall with recipe development lately. All of my creativity is being driven towards work right now… and finding creative ways […]

Plantain Chicken Fritter Clubs (Paleo, AIP, Whole30)

  Well, that was a mouthful! I can guarantee these are incredibly flavorful for two reasons. #1 I have been sick this week with a sinus infection and have not been able to taste my food for days, but I could taste these babies, and boy were they good. #2 My husband went bonkers over […]

Cinnamon-Apple Quick Braised Pork (Paleo, AIP, Whole30)

I  am a sucker for slow-roasted meats, but with pork that drastically increases the histamine levels, which isn’t so hot for me. Quick-braising a pork shoulder only takes 1 hour (versus 5 or 6 in the oven), so you don’t have to stay home all day waiting for your dang meat shoulder to cook. It’s […]

Lebanese Pork Hand-Pie (Paleo, AIP)

These Paleo AIP Lebanese Pork Hand-Pies contain all of the tastes of my heritage while still keeping true to the Auto Immune Protocol; best of both worlds!   God my dog is good-looking. He seriously stops strangers in their tracks during rush hour in Chicago. Rafael makes 54-year-old buttoned up CEOs late on a daily […]
