Guys… and girls… the 100 degree temperatures are already starting here in Arizona, and I am already melting. When the temperatures begin to rise, I find myself gravitating toward no cook meals and side dishes. Coleslaw is one of my favorite summer time side dishes. There is just something about summer barbecues and coleslaw that…

Instant Pot BBQ Meatballs
My first Instant Pot recipe!! I have been loving using my Instant Pot since I got it for Christmas and experimenting with new recipes. I’ve already made these Instant Pot BBQ Meatballs three times! My sister even made them for her 4 kids, and they all gave the Instant Pot BBQ Meatballs a thumbs up….
Mayo-free BLT Coleslaw
I’m back from vacation and playing some serious catchup! It is the busy season at my job plus I have something special in the works. I’m super excited but exhausted, which is funny since I just spent a week at the beach. I am so happy that summer weather has finally hit! It means I’ll…
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…
Fire Roasted Pepper Burgers
I hope everyone had an amazing 4th of July! I’m sad to leave Florida today. I’ve been enjoying the ocean breeze, salt water and sand. I truly miss living by the beach. When I was little I dreamed about living near the beach, but never actually thought it would happen. Now that I’m back in…
Paleo Potato Salad
The countdown to the Fourth is on! I leave for Florida tomorrow bright and early. I haven’t been to Florida in more than 10 years. I still remember my family vacation to Sarasota with its powder white sand beaches and amazing sunsets. This time I will be visiting the Atlantic seaboard then jaunting down to…
Spicy Pineapple Ribs
I’m still getting back into my daily routine. It has taken me longer than I expected to get off of vacation brain. I guess being gone more than a month does that to you. I’m already planning my Fourth of July menu! I love cooking for holidays. I get so excited and start my planning…
Paleo KC BBQ Sauce
I’m off to Austin today for Paleo f(x) today!! I’m so excited and a little nervous. I’m not the best in big groups. I can be overly shy, which I’m working on. There are so many amazing sessions. Anyone else headed to Austin? What sessions are you most excited to attend? I can’t wait to…
Paleo Balsamic Apple Ribs
I planned on cooking all weekend, but instead I got food poisoning and spent most of the weekend balled up on the couch. It was absolutely beautiful this weekend, and I’m more than a little happy for the weather to finally warm up. Moving from Los Angeles has been tough in the weather department. I…
Four Things
I’m in New Orleans for the weekend and already loving this city! There is just so much going on. The first order of business was a drive-thru daiquiri. So not paleo but so worth it! I can’t wait to explore more of the city. There is so much history and culture. I want to soak…
Paleo BBQ Lil Smokies
Ok so that name is kind of a lie. I searched and searched for lil smokies without any weird ingredients but came up completely empty! All were filled with sugar, soy and weird ingredients I couldn’t pronounce. If you aren’t familiar with the goodness that is lil smokies, they are also called cocktail smokies, cocktail…
Paleo BBQ Chicken Pizza: Leftovers Round Two
Another round of leftovers! I greatly underestimated how much chicken is in a whole chicken. For one person, it is literally enough chicken to feed me for a week or two. Using my BBQ leftovers from here, I decided to make some pizza! Big decision time- cauliflower crust, almond flour crust or coconut flour crust….
