This Paleo Mexican Salad takes me right back to my childhood. When I was growing up, taco salad and French dressing went hand-in-hand. This might seem like a weird combination, but it is utterly delicious. The subtle sweetness of the French dressing mixes with the savory taco meat for a fulfilling and flavorful paleo meal….

Hibiscus Coconut Margarita
Margaritas are one of my favorite indulgences. For some reason the paleo community has embraced tequila as an okay form of alcohol. I choose not to dig too much into it because I like tequila and margaritas. I am obsessed with this Hibiscus Coconut Margarita. I started drinking my own variation of the Nor-Cal margarita…
Paleo Chorizo and Potato Tacos
In college, my sorority threw a “Favorite Holiday” party. Since dressing up as a Groundhog might have been weird slash difficult. I settled on my second favorite holiday- Cinco de Mayo. Yes I know Cinco de Mayo isn’t necessarily a real holiday, but that is what I love about it. I think my love of…
Mexican Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Sweet potatoes are a great side dish that pair well with almost any meal! Before paleo, I thought of sweet potatoes purely as a Thanksgiving vegetable. This all changed after going paleo. Sweet potatoes provide a wide array of nutrients from vitamin C, antioxidants to paleo-friendly carbs! They are a versatile vegetable that can be…
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…
Chipotle Tacos with Pickled Onions
Guess what? On Sunday, I celebrated my 2 year blog anniversary! I partied it up by working at my real job, but I have a very excited announcement to make… I am writing an ebook. I’ve had this idea for a cookbook for over a year, and now I am finally putting my idea to…
Chimichanga Breakfast Skillet
So this weekend was rough. Well rough in the sports world. My alma mater is known as a basketball university but I still love football; however, watching my school play football is something of a painful experience. We were actually pretty good when I was in college but oh how the team has fallen. We…
Chicken Enchilada Soup
I leave New York today and as always I’m sad to leave this city. From the constant bustle of people to the food to simply the surrounds, NYC is a one-of-a-kind place. When I lived in Los Angeles, New York was an escape for me. It is the direct opposite of LA. While there are…
Stuffed Pepper Casserole
So I teased this recipe last Monday on my Instagram for Cinco de Mayo. I was super excited when people asked for the recipe! I would have posted it sooner, but I had some things planned for Mother’s Day. Anyways now it is up! This stuffed pepper casserole is super easy to make, and it…
Strawberry Margarita Gummies
Ever since I shared my Blueberry Mojito Gummies on The Eighty-Twenty, I’ve been wanting to make another cocktail-inspired gummy recipe. With Cinco de Mayo right around the corner, I thought why not make a margarita gummy. I used to love margaritas. It wasn’t a tiny crush or a short affair. Most of my college years…
Enchilada Pasta
Introducing Meaty Mondays! I’m sure you have heard of Meatless Mondays, but I want to make Meaty Mondays a thing! After attending Paleo fx (I will probably being using this phrase obnoxiously for the next two weeks), I realized it is so important to be eating meat. Not just any meat, but a wide variety…
Crockpot Chipotle Chicken
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…
