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 Irish Boxty + Full Irish Breakfast
I’m pretty pumped about St. Paddy’s Day if you haven’t figured out yet. I leave for New Orleans tomorrow!! I am so excited to explore the city and celebrate St. Paddy’s Day there. Anything I absolutely have to do while I’m there? I’ve never been and can’t wait. I made this Irish breakfast as a…
Paleo Coriander Pork Chops
So I haven’t had pork chops in about six years. I stopped eating pork and red meat in 2008. I thought I was doing the “healthy” thing in regards to the red meat and fatty bacon. On the other hand, I didn’t mind giving up all other pork products. I’ve had a weird relationship with…
Paleo Beignets Recipe
I’m so excited for my first trip to New Orleans in a couple weeks! One of my good friends from college moved there over the summer, and I’m going to stay with her for a week. I got my first taste of Mardi Gras when she face timed me yesterday. I’m so awkward at face…
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…
Paleo Oscar Party Foods
So a little known fact. I was actually in the move industry for a couple years. I love movies especially independents! I love throwing themed parties, and what better way to throw an Oscar party than to serve foods inspired by the movies up for Best Picture! Most of these come from the location the…
Cranberry Pesto Meatballs with Butternut Squash Mash
I’m recovering from a whirlwind trip to Austin, Texas. Just a little fyi a 14-hour round trip car ride isn’t the best idea for a weekend trip. While I am not the best flyer, I would take a plane over a long car ride any day. Good thing Austin was amazing! The food in Austin…
Cinnamon Apple Kombucha
I started off my home brewing journey in mid-December. I was nervous about buying a scoby online so I decided to follow Steph from Stupid Easy Paleo’s instructions here on how to grow your own. It was so simple! I definitely recommend trying this method if you can’t get your hands on a scoby from a…
Paleo Cranberry Pesto Meatballs
I’m so excited to be sharing my cranberry pesto meatballs with butternut squash mash plus a leftover remix over on the Paleo Parents’ blog today! I love making two dishes in one. You save time in the kitchen and get two dinners with one prep. Check it out here!
Paleo Sweet Pepper Chili
So I guess winter is sticking around after all. Don’t worry I have an official countdown to spring. Only 31 days to go. So close yet so far away. I got a little winter relief with a short vacation to the gulf. Texas beaches don’t really compare to California, but the weather was nice so…
Strawberry Cream Cheese Pancake Stack
Valentine’s Day is one day away people! If you have someone special, I hope you already made plans. I’ll be spending the day eating chocolate, drinking wine and thinking about how much I miss the beach. My one true love. Well I’m actually at the beach in Texas but it is not the same as…
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…
