I am officially all moved in to Arizona but not unpacked. Thankfully I have a few days before my new job starts to settle in a little more. I can’t wait to explore my new city and find lots of local gems. I am so excited to be close to a Trader Joe’s again. I…

Crockpot Hatch Chile Chicken Tacos
I asked. You responded. Here it is! A new crockpot meal. Crockpot Hatch Chile Chicken Tacos. I love cooking in my crockpot (or slow cooker if I am being technically correct). Some of my favorite crockpot meals include my Spicy Mustard Chicken, Mississippi Roast and Tom Kha Yum Soup. My local Whole Foods recently held a…
Southwestern Shredded Pork
After abstaining from pork for 6 years, my first time eating pork besides bacon was this Christmas Eve when I made Nom Nom Paleo’s Kalua Shredded Pork. I was so surprised how much I enjoyed the meat and couldn’t even tell it was pork. Since then I have still been a little pork shy. I’ve…

Paleo Tangy Mustard Chicken
Sometimes naming recipes is hard. Sometimes I try to be cheeky. Sometimes I go for the more obvious. Who knew such a simple thing could be so difficult? This time I went for the more obvious name. What can I say? My creative juices seem to be running a little low. Or I am depleting…
Mini Paleo Key Lime Tarts
I have mentioned I am a recovering sugar addict, and I am not kidding. I crave sweets pretty much 24/7. As I have slowly added treats back into my diet, I was excited to try inventive recipes. Growing up my mom made a fantastic key lime pie. I would beg her to make it, and…
