From pizza crust to chicken enchiladas casserole to banana cream pie, Kelly’s book is filled with delicious and simple recipe for paleo beginners to those fully committed to the lifestyle. It was so hard to…

Chocolate Cashew Clusters
We are in the Christmas countdown. My small-ish family of 5 has grown over the years to 12! Yes 12. Twelve is a lot of people to buy presents for. I went the DIY route this year and made lash lengthening serum, headache salve and eye cream for the ladies of my family. I’m not…
Chipotle Coffee Pulled Pork
You guys. This chipotle coffee pulled pork recipe is so easy and so good! I saw something on Pinterest but it had like 20 ingredients and was zero paleo. How do you replace pop in a recipe?! No clue but I won’t touch the stuff. As I perused the grocery aisles, I threw in a…
Guest Post: Essential Paleo Cookbook, Chili Topped Parsnip Fries
I’m excited to have Louise from Paleo Living Magazine on the blog today! I first came across Louise’s recipes on her blog Ancestral Chef. Louise has a new e-book, The Essential Paleo Cookbook, out that is absolutely amazing. Along with her new cookbook, Paleo Living Magazine is hosting a HUGE giveaway featuring some of my favorite products,…
Dairy-free Cheesy Potato Soup
Dairy-free and cheese in the title might be a little confusing but hang in there with me. For as far back as I can remember, my family has been eating cheesy potato soup. It is a family favorite from my grandma to my little nieces. Unfortunately our cheesy potato soup is as far from paleo…
Sweet and Tangy Lil’ Smokies
I hope everyone had an amazing Thanksgiving and also a filling one! I stuffed my belly with turkey, grain-free stuffing, raw cranberry sauce, pomegranate balsamic brussels sprouts and Fed + Fit’s apple pie from her new ebook. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite food holidays. I will eat and eat and eat with little or…
Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie
Confession time. My sister made this Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie. She has the patience to remake recipes multiple times if it doesn’t work the first time. I accredit this to the fact she has three children and also an extreme sweet tooth. I on the other hand am not blessed with said patience. Give me…
Grain-free Traditional Stuffing
So this is traditional stuffing in the sense that it is my mom’s recipe, but this is technically dressing because I don’t cook it in my turkey. I just can’t bring myself to call it dressing because that is what you put on a salad. Stuffing is stuffing to me wether it is cooked in…
Bourbon Clove Applesauce
So I am going to say it… it is freezing out! Freezing. It was 70 degrees in Oklahoma last week. Yesterday I woke up and my weather app read “feels like 10 degrees.” I am not okay with this. I love fall. It was one of the things I absolutely missed when I lived in…
Paleo Chicken Parmesan Casserole
Why hello there November and Day Light Savings Time. I used to be such a fan of Day Light Savings, not anymore. Day Light Savings means the end of evening shoots for food bloggers. Gone are the days of making dinner, taking pictures and eating. Also it is getting cold! I took these pictures outside…
Pomegranate Balsamic Brussels Sprouts
Life is about to get crazy! I am moving this weekend hopefully. I was hired at a new job! And I’m working hard on The Eighty-Twenty e-magazine. With everything going on, I might only share one recipe a week for the next couple weeks. I want to make sure I am giving you guys quality…
Crockpot Tom Kha Yum Soup
Thai lovers might be wondering why this soup is orange instead of white. Well when I lived in Los Angeles my favorite Thai restaurant’s tom kha yum soup was orange. Also they called it tom kha yum soup instead of tom kha gai. I’ve been trying desperately to recreate this soup because honestly I miss it…
