Sometimes eating out can be tricky especially at your favorite restaurants. For me, I have a hard time branching out to my old go-to favorites. I am a creature of habit and when I find a dish I love I tend to stick to it. To help cope, I love recreating my favorites at home….

6 Greens Power Juice
I might have gone a little crazy with my juicer. I over indulged myself at the farmers marker and needed to use my produce before it went bad. I normally try and only use my juicer once a week in favor of eating all my fruit and veggies whole, but I might have busted it…
Paleo Butternut Squash Lasagna with Cashew Cheese
Sometimes I really miss Italian food. It is probably the hardest cuisine to convert to Paleo. I used to gorge myself on fettuccine alfredo. Now I can’t imagine eating such a heavy dish. Since investing in a spiral veggie cutter, I’ve been able to dabble in more Italian paleo friendly dishes with my zucchini noodles….
Paleo Cajun Burgers with Caramelized Onions
This is one of two recipes where I put my cajun spice mix to use. From the results, there will be many more occasions for this spice blend. I have a serious urge to put it on everything I make! It’s so good. Yes I know it is just a spice blend, but it is…
Spicy Pumpkin Pasta
I’m sad it’s the last day of September. September is my favorite month of the year and not just because it is my birthday month. September means the beginning of fall. Oklahoma summers can be scorching and fall weather is always a relief. In LA September means less crowded beaches and still plenty of sun….
Cajun Spice Mix
So there is a small possibility that I am addicted to Pinterest. I find so many great recipes via Pinterest. My browsing usually ends in an hour long binge. I can’t stop. There is also a lot of strange stuff on Pinterest. While I was perusing the food and drink category the other night, I…
Paleo Triple Citrus Ceviche
So my last post was basically an ode to fall. Let’s do a little 180. I go about 50/50 on if I like shrimp. It is so weird. Sometimes I love it. Other times I can’t stand the texture. RIght now I seem to be in a like phase. I had leftover sweet potato chips…
Paleo Authentic Creamed Spinach
When I was younger, you couldn’t pay me to eat spinach. I didn’t like the taste at all. Cooked spinach was the absolute worst, but somewhere along the line something changed. Spinach isn’t the only vegetable I now love that used to hate. I think as we get older our preferences change. I’m not sure…
Gettin’ Figgy with It: Paleo Fig Shake
So my birthday was yesterday. I was eleven when Mr. Will Smith dropped those sweet tunes. Na na na na nana. Gettin’ jiggy with it! You can do the math if you really want. I can’t believe another year has past, and I am another year older. I am not opposed to getting older. Obviously…
Paleo Mexican Chilaquiles
So I have a strained eye. Want to know how I got it? Evidently staring at your computer screen for four hours straight in bad lighting isn’t so good for your eyes. I really hope the Phillip Lim bag from Target is worth it! I got my official notification that it shipped today! Woo! I…
Paleo Italian Meatball Hoagies: Leftover Edition
I recently celebrated living in LA for three years. I can’t believe it has been three years. When I drove cross country three years ago, LA was full of new dreams and endless opportunities. A lot has changed in three years. Slowly I’ve fallen out of love with LA. I’m ready for a change. I’m…
Paleo Hawaiian Pizza
Yesterday, my friend came over to help me style my food and take pictures. I attempted to make pancakes, burgers, a side and a layered dessert. I think I overexerted myself just a wee bit! Thankfully most of the food turned out great, except for some overly spicy burgers. I will be fixing that recipe…
