Life is about to get crazy! I am moving this weekend hopefully. I was hired at a new job! And I’m working hard on The Eighty-Twenty e-magazine. With everything going on, I might only share one recipe a week for the next couple weeks. I want to make sure I am giving you guys quality…

Spicy Pineapple Ribs
I’m still getting back into my daily routine. It has taken me longer than I expected to get off of vacation brain. I guess being gone more than a month does that to you. I’m already planning my Fourth of July menu! I love cooking for holidays. I get so excited and start my planning…
Roasted Lamb with Blackberry Balsamic Reduction
I’m driving back from Austin today. I’m sad to leave the city but have to get back to reality. I have a lot of stuff to catch up on, and I need to let you in on a little secret. I’m going to Europe in three weeks for a month! I’m so excited to depart…
Paleo Balsamic Apple Ribs
I planned on cooking all weekend, but instead I got food poisoning and spent most of the weekend balled up on the couch. It was absolutely beautiful this weekend, and I’m more than a little happy for the weather to finally warm up. Moving from Los Angeles has been tough in the weather department. I…
Paleo Umami Brussels Sprouts
I feel like it has been forever since I did a vegetable post. Okay so I did post the bloomin’ onion a couple days ago. Evidently my memory isn’t to hot right now. I blame the weather. I’ve lost track of my days with all the snow. Well anyways, I usually try to include a…
Paleo Mississippi Roast
After being home a couple days, I am missing the bustling city. You might be thinking, but you live in Los Angeles that is a huge city. Well I actually moved back to Oklahoma a little before Thanksgiving. Yup I have been back in the Midwest for almost three months now. I loved living in…
Paleo Spiced Crispy Pork Belly
I’m currently curing my own bacon and cannot wait to put it into the smoker. When I purchased my pork belly I got a big piece. I don’t even know if you could call it a piece. More like half a piggy. Thirteen pounds worth. Instead of turning it all into bacon, I cut off…
Cranberry Pecan Brussels Sprouts
I love brussels sprouts. Seriously I could eat them every day. Sometimes I find this funny because until about two years ago I loathed brussels sprouts. You couldn’t pay me enough money to eat brussels sprouts. A couple years ago, everything changed. I didn’t realize I’d been eating them wrong. Steamed brussels sprouts are still…
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…
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…
Roasting a Whole Chicken: Paleo-Style
The idea of roasting a whole chicken felt very daunting to me. I roasted a whole turkey once before for Friends-giving, which was a somewhat comical experience. Needless to say after spilling almost all the turkey drippings on the floor and then breaking an entire bottle of wine, I steered clear of any big production…
