With fall brings crockpot season! I always forget how much I love my crockpot until cool weather rolls around. I tend to be a messy cook. I try to clean while cooking and still end up with a huge mess in my kitchen. This is where the crockpot comes in. Everything goes into one pot…
Paleo Butternut Squash Lasagna with Cashew Cheese
Sometimes I really miss Italian food. It is probably the hardest cuisine to convert to Paleo. I used to gorge myself on fettuccine alfredo. Now I can’t imagine eating such a heavy dish. Since investing in a spiral veggie cutter, I’ve been able to dabble in more Italian paleo friendly dishes with my zucchini noodles….
Paleo Cajun Burgers with Caramelized Onions
This is one of two recipes where I put my cajun spice mix to use. From the results, there will be many more occasions for this spice blend. I have a serious urge to put it on everything I make! It’s so good. Yes I know it is just a spice blend, but it is…
Raw Red Currant Jam
Ok so I got the pumpkin out of my system. Well kind of. I have more recipes to come. Those can wait until later, or I might have to change my blog’s name to pumpkin and paleo. Just kidding. But no really, I might have gone a little overboard. The other week I picked up…
Pumpkin Almond Dip
I’m pretty sure I have mentioned my love of almond butter before. It is a serious love that I don’t see fading anytime soon. Thankfully I have stopped eating spoonfuls just by itself. Since I opened a can of pumpkin for my homemade pumpkin spiced lattes, the can has been tempting me to use it…
Spicy Pumpkin Pasta
I’m sad it’s the last day of September. September is my favorite month of the year and not just because it is my birthday month. September means the beginning of fall. Oklahoma summers can be scorching and fall weather is always a relief. In LA September means less crowded beaches and still plenty of sun….
Cajun Spice Mix
So there is a small possibility that I am addicted to Pinterest. I find so many great recipes via Pinterest. My browsing usually ends in an hour long binge. I can’t stop. There is also a lot of strange stuff on Pinterest. While I was perusing the food and drink category the other night, I…
Paleo Triple Citrus Ceviche
So my last post was basically an ode to fall. Let’s do a little 180. I go about 50/50 on if I like shrimp. It is so weird. Sometimes I love it. Other times I can’t stand the texture. RIght now I seem to be in a like phase. I had leftover sweet potato chips…
Paleo Pumpkin Cashew Chicken
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness. While I am sad summer is technically over, fall brings the best food of any season. One of my all time favorite holidays is Thanksgiving. Yes thanksgiving is still a ways off, but it doesn’t mean you can’t start celebrating early. Yes you can in fact put pumpkin in anything and everything….
Paleo Authentic Creamed Spinach
When I was younger, you couldn’t pay me to eat spinach. I didn’t like the taste at all. Cooked spinach was the absolute worst, but somewhere along the line something changed. Spinach isn’t the only vegetable I now love that used to hate. I think as we get older our preferences change. I’m not sure…
Gettin’ Figgy with It: Paleo Fig Shake
So my birthday was yesterday. I was eleven when Mr. Will Smith dropped those sweet tunes. Na na na na nana. Gettin’ jiggy with it! You can do the math if you really want. I can’t believe another year has past, and I am another year older. I am not opposed to getting older. Obviously…
Paleo Salted Caramel Dip
So now that fall is days away, can I start wearing sweaters and boots? No. I live in Los Angeles where there is no fall or winter. I loved this the first year I moved here, but it has faded with time. I miss fall. I miss the changing of the leaves; however, I do…
