Ever since I shared my Blueberry Mojito Gummies on The Eighty-Twenty, I’ve been wanting to make another cocktail-inspired gummy recipe. With Cinco de Mayo right around the corner, I thought why not make a margarita gummy. I used to love margaritas. It wasn’t a tiny crush or a short affair. Most of my college years…

Herb Pork Tenderloin with Cinnamon Sweet Potatoes
Meaty Mondays are now a thing! Okay maybe not, but I really want to start a trend here. Not just because starting a trend seems really neat, but I know I didn’t used to get enough meat in my diet. I stayed away from red meat and pork for so long, and you can only…
Rustic Apple Custard Cake
I’m in the two week countdown!! Fourteen short days from now I will be boarding a plane to hop across the pond to my European excursion. I can’t believe it is so close. I’m getting down to the gritty details like what to pack. I’m hopeless! I have no clue how I’m going to pack…
Paleo Chia Almond Smoothie
When I lived in LA, a juice shop opened right next to my hot yoga studio. Pretty brilliant planning if you ask me. After you get your sweat on, a nice cold-pressed or coconut water sounds fantastic. One night after a particularly grueling session, I decided to branch out from my go-to drink and order…
The Primal Life Kit
Just a reminder The Primal Life Kit is still available! The bundle is packed with very useful products for you! I know lots of bloggers are promoting the bundle, but each one sold from me helps support my blog and developing new recipes! I love creating recipes for all my readers and can’t wait to…
Enchilada Pasta
Introducing Meaty Mondays! I’m sure you have heard of Meatless Mondays, but I want to make Meaty Mondays a thing! After attending Paleo fx (I will probably being using this phrase obnoxiously for the next two weeks), I realized it is so important to be eating meat. Not just any meat, but a wide variety…
Four Things + Paleo FX Recap
I’m dreaming of butter coffee and quiche from Picnik in Austin. Paleo FX was such an amazing experience. I learned a ton more about paleo. I attended sessions from the autoimmune protocol to the healthcare system to paleo for women. At times, I felt like I was the most unhealthy person in the room, but…
Strawberry Cobb Salad with Tangy Poppyseed Dressing
I can’t believe it is already Thursday. This week is almost over, and I need to go grocery shopping big time! I’m planning a full recipe testing weekend and have a list to feed a small country. Not really but it does seem like a lot of food. Thank goodness for my family, who doesn’t…
Raw Carrot Cake Bites
I learned so much at Paleo fx this past weekend. I am really want to start eating more variety. I ate chicken and turkey for so many years. It has been a transition to simply add read meat and a little pork back in my diet. After attending many of the sessions on the autoimmune…
Roasted Lamb with Blackberry Balsamic Reduction
I’m driving back from Austin today. I’m sad to leave the city but have to get back to reality. I have a lot of stuff to catch up on, and I need to let you in on a little secret. I’m going to Europe in three weeks for a month! I’m so excited to depart…
Journey to Health
Today I’m sharing my health story for the first time over on The Eighty Twenty. While my story isn’t one of extreme weight loss, I think many people can relate to the journey of finally discovering what being healthy truly means. Long battles with body image and yoyo dieting plagued me for years until I…
Four Things
Instead of going to Coachella this year, I’m in Austin for Paleo F(x). While I’m sad to be missing the festival, I couldn’t be more excited to connect with so many Paleo people! I’m also excited to explore Austin a little more. I’m staying in town until Tuesday and want hit up as many food…
