I love how easy it is to cook chicken in the crockpot. I have a couple chicken crockpot recipes on my blog (here, here, here). I am constantly trying to think of ways to cut down on kitchen time, and I always go back to my crockpot. You can make so many things in a…

Paleo Sun-dried Tomato & Artichoke Stuffed Chicken
My life feels a little boring right now. Time seems to slow down in the winter. The monotonous days of cold and snow drag with no end. Grey skies block out the sun giving the landscape a dreary outlook. I miss LA winter. It isn’t even a real winter, which is why I love it…
Spicy and Sweet Blood Orange Wings
Superbowl countdown is on. I’d love the attend the game some day, but preferably when it is in a warm location like Miami. I love NYC, but I’m not sure how I feel about sitting outside for 3+ hours to watch a football game. During college, I could barely handle November games in Kansas. My…
Paleo Chicken Tetrazzini
Ok so I can’t keep it a secret anymore. Well I wasn’t really hiding it, but I was too nervous to jinx anything. Yesterday I got lasik eye surgery. For the first time in almost two decades, I can see without glasses or contacts. I simultaneously want to scream joyously at the top of my…
Paleo Buffalo Ranch Dip
I love spicy food! One of my favorite dishes is buffalo wings. Yum. Sometimes I like to push my spicy boundaries, and sometimes it backfires badly. Pre-Whole30, I let a waitress convince me that the mango habanero wings at Buffalo Wild Wings were only slightly hotter than my usual, caribbean jerk wings. As I dug…
Plaid & Paleo 2013 Top Recipes
My little blog passed it’s six-month anniversary a couple weeks ago. The time has gone by so quickly. I truly love sharing my cooking creations. This year has brought a lot of ups and downs, but I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. Being able to share my paleo-journey not only keeps me accountable…
Paleo Chicken Marsala
The first time I ate chicken marsala was after losing a bet to a friend. If I won the bet, he had to make me dinner but if I lost I had to make dinner. Needless to say I lost. I made a really, really bad bet. I’m almost too embarrassed to say but you…
Paleo Creamy Chicken Pasta
I’m still trying to come to term with the fact Christmas is less than three weeks away. I can’t say I am a fan of holiday shopping. Don’t get me wrong I love picking out presents for my friends and family; however, I hate braving the crowds of holiday shoppers. People get crazy this time…
Paleo Chicken, Squash and Mushroom Stew
I am pretty sure I stored enough food away on Thanksgiving to hold me over until spring. Ok not really. But I did get pretty full. This year was my second paleo-Thanksgiving, and it was even better than last year. I was a little more than excited when my stuffing, which is actually dressing, tasted…
Paleo Indian Spiced Roasted Chicken
This weekend I attended my first book club meet up. Now this might not sound like everyone’s cup of tea, but it is right up my alley. Next to cooking I love reading. I set a New Year’s Resolution to read 100 books in 2013. I’m only three books from completing my goal! I normally…
Paleo Sweet Pomegranate Chicken
I love a good chicken recipe. While chicken might not be the most alluring meat, it is arguably one of the most versatile. With a simple glaze or marinade you can take chicken from spicy to sweet to savory. This recipe shines by being a little bit of everything. The initial sweetness is paired with a…
Simply Roasted Chicken and Fall Veggies
Fall is in the air. The leaves are changing color, and the temperature is dropping. I’m a huge baby when it is cold out. All I want to do is staying inside and snuggle under a blanket. With the changing seasons, I love staying inside and cooking up a hearty dinner. Roasting is my favorite…
