I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend! I spent most of the weekend relaxing and contemplating what to cook this week. After hearing rave reviews about Paleo Mayo, I decided it was time to attempt to make my own. Growing up I was more of a Miracle Whip girl. I actually hated pretty much…

Paleo Potsticker Asian Turkey Burgers with Asian Coleslaw
It’s the final day of around the world with Plaid and Paleo, unofficially renamed around the southeast continent of Asia. I gravitate toward Asian flavors in my cooking sometimes unintentionally.

My typical restaurant order consists of fajita chicken enchiladas, Mexican mashed potatoes and rice with unlimited tortilla chips, salsa and quesadilla. Nothing from that is Paleo except maybe the salsa. I am still working on recreating this dish…
