I love this gluten-free grilled vegetable medley because it is so easy to make, and it is packed with fresh flavor. Grilled zucchini, yellow squash and red onions make the perfect summer veggie combo! My mom made a version of this grown up, and I was always in charge of manning the grill basket to…

Sweet Corn Salad
A few weeks ago, I headed back to Iowa with my boyfriend for his small town’s festival called “Sweet Corn Festival.” His town tops out at about 4,000 residents but more than 12,000 people flock to the tiny town for a weekend-long party complete with 5k, parade, beer garden and of course lots and lots…
Sheet Pan Paleo Teriyaki Chicken and Vegetables
So I haven’t blogged in 3 weeks. Oops. I had full intentions of posting this Paleo Teriyaki Chicken and Vegetables before I moved states, but alas I didn’t. Moving is a pain, and I somehow always push it out of my mind until the next time I have to move, which happens to be almost…
Honey-Sriracha Sweet Potatoes and Brussels Sprouts
These Honey-Sriracha Sweet Potatoes and Brussels Sprouts are so awesome! When I ate them all, I was literally sad they were gone. Does that sound crazy? Yes. But these Honey-Sriracha Sweet Potatoes and Brussels Sprouts were just that good. Vegetables are not sexy. Most people think vegetables as a necessary evil to exist and to…
Mini Hasselback Potatoes with Herb Butter
A year ago, I got my first taste of mini hasselback potatoes during a very special Valentine’s Day dinner. This year I recreated these mini hasselback potatoes with herb butter paired with my cast-iron steak. This dinner holds a very special place in my heart and recreating it took me right back to the moment…
Gluten-free Pesto Bruschetta Sweet Potato Rounds
I’ve been cooking up a storm lately! I always follow a meal plan when going to the grocery store to make sure I don’t do any impulse purchases and to cut down on food waste. One thing that always still seems to go bad in my fridge is fresh herbs! I am totally guilty of…
Paleo General Tso’s Cauliflower
I love a good Paleo Chinese takeout recipe! This Paleo General Tso’s Cauliflower recipe is coming from one of my friend’s cookbooks, The Big 15 Paleo Cookbook by Megan Flynn Peterson, which was recently released! Megan and I met when we both wrote for the website, The Eighty-Twenty. I love the concept behind The Big…
Fed & Fit’s Loaded Cauliflower Mac & Cheese
Guys! I am so excited to be sharing a recipe from Cassy of Fed & Fit’s new cookbook with the same name: Fed & Fit! I’ve been following along with Cassy’s blog since I first went Paleo. Her step-by-step instructions helped me when I was new to paleo and really new to cooking in general!…
Grilled Sweet Potato Fries with Southwest Roasted Red Pepper Dip
Guys! So I heard I was moving to Arizona at the worst possible time because it regularly gets above 100 degrees and even up to 120 degrees for most of the summer! While I am melting in the heat, it hasn’t stopped me from firing up the grill and enjoying one of my favorite parts…
Paleo Loaded Mashed Potato Bake
One of my favorite local restaurants makes this amazing loaded mashed potato bake. I am obsessed with it and order it any time I go there. I’ve been wanting to make it paleo for a while but kept going back and forth between making it with cauliflower or white sweet potatoes. I am so happy…
Winter Squash Casserole
Can you believe Thanksgiving is just over 2 weeks away?! I can’t believe how fast 2015 has flown by. Every year around 30 members of my extended family gather at my grandparent’s farm house in the middle of nowhere. It is a time for family, fun and lots of food! I created this winter squash…
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…
