Did you know I write over on The Eighty Twenty? I am absolutely in love with this site and adore the other women contributing. I’m sure you’ve heard of the 80/20 rule when it comes to food, but The Eighty Twenty applies this to everything. Life is about balance. There is a time for work…

Chorizo Stuffed Dates with Roasted Pepper Sauce
On my trip to New Orleans, my friend and I ate at this awesome wine bar called Bacchanal by the Bywater. When enter into a normal looking wine store where you select a bottle. You can also choose from a large selection of cheese. They had a few raw cheeses, which was a big win…
Paleo March Madness Mash Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeños
So my blog was deleted from Blogger yesterday right when I was leaving for the airport. I cannot say how thankful I am to have it back up and running. I want to thank each and every reader and other paleo bloggers who reached out to help! I was on a little bit of a…
Flax Fruit n’ Nut Bars
Yeah I only have three days left of my Whole30, but I am planning on finishing strong. I cannot lie and say I haven’t come up with like 10 easy treat ideas for when I can eat honey by the spoonful again. Just kidding, I don’t eat it by the spoonful, but I do love…
Paleo Bloomin’ Onion with Spicy Dipping Sauce
I have been working really hard on improving my food pictures. My friend Rachel let me come over a cook, and then she helped me style my food! I am so excited how these photos turned out. They really do the recipe justice. I have come along way since my green chevron print with red…
Whole30 Superbowl Snacks
The January Whole30-ers might be done just in time for Superbowl Sunday, but that doesn’t mean you should derail your diet. I’ve rounded up 20+ Whole30 Superbowl Snacks. I love the Superbowl. Or maybe I just like throwing theme parties. Who knows? For me, it isn’t a Superbowl party without chili, hot wings, sliders and…
Paleo Buffalo Ranch Dip
I love spicy food! One of my favorite dishes is buffalo wings. Yum. Sometimes I like to push my spicy boundaries, and sometimes it backfires badly. Pre-Whole30, I let a waitress convince me that the mango habanero wings at Buffalo Wild Wings were only slightly hotter than my usual, caribbean jerk wings. As I dug…
Paleo Rotel Dip
I’m halfway done with Whole30. I feel like I’ve rounded a major bend and can see the light at the end. I’d like to say Whole30 has been a breeze, but it wouldn’t be the truth. I really like honey, like really like it! So far I’ve realized I still have a sugar problem. On…
Paleo Apricot Snack Bars
I can’t believe the weekend is already over. My sister and I drove down to Dallas for Michelle of Nom Nom Paleo’s book signing. It was so much fun. I was surprised how many paleo-friendly and gluten-free restaurants are in Dallas! We ate at HG Sply Co and The Company Cafe. Both were incredibly delicious….
Paleo Sour Strawberry Gummies
After reading lots of blogs and articles about the benefits of gelatin, I decided to get on the bandwagon. As a longtime sufferer of knee pain, I’d love to homeopathically help my knee rather than relying on pain medication. There are tons of benefits to consuming grass-fed gelatin. You can find out more here. I…
Plaid & Paleo 2013 Top Recipes
My little blog passed it’s six-month anniversary a couple weeks ago. The time has gone by so quickly. I truly love sharing my cooking creations. This year has brought a lot of ups and downs, but I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. Being able to share my paleo-journey not only keeps me accountable…
Paleo Gingerbread Dip
Yesterday I had one of my worst recipes fails. I was attempting a new pancake recipe, which turned out to be a disaster. They were too thin. Then too thick. Then gritty. I’m still at a lost of how they were so so bad. I’m still determined to get it right and share it with…
