It is still Hatch Chile season! I love being able to buy fresh roasted hatch chiles at my local Whole Foods. I love the spicy, smokey flavor of hatch chiles. One of my favorite pre-paleo snacks was hummus. I loved the creamy texture and all the different flavors that could be imposed on the semi-neutral…

Rustic Chorizo Pasta
I have one word to describe how I feel right now… exhausted. After three days in Austin at Paleo f(x) followed by a 6-hour drive in a torrential downpour, all I wanted was to take a big bite of this rustic chorizo pasta. Unfortunately I ate it all before I left along with the rest…
Spicy Chicken Noodle Bowls
Did anyone else wake up early Wednesday morning to see the full lunar eclipse? I set my alarm for 5:40am and stumbled out of bed camera in hand. I took a couple test shots of the moon earlier in the evening to get my settings right. Unfortunately I didn’t think about the fact the moon…
Pork Shoulder Ramen
Now this is a real Meaty Monday post! This pork shoulder ramen is full of meat, hearty mushrooms and zoodles. Best part- it is made in the crockpot! If you didn’t know, I love crockpot meals. They make life so easy. One of my favorite restaurants has a pork belly ramen dish. I have watched longingly…
Zucchini Apple Slaw
Summer produce is plentiful as ever. I love going to my farmers market and see loads of local vegetables and fruit. I still miss my LA market but my new one is definitely showing a lot of promise. Sadly it will be closing in a few months, but let’s not think about that! One of…
Chicken Gyro Kabobs + Tzatziki Dipping Sauce
I’m back!! I got back from my amazing European holiday early Friday morning. In my jet lag state, I almost forgot Saturday was Plaid & Paleo’s 1st Anniversary! I can’t believe it’s been a year: 210 posts and 150 original recipes later. Plaid & Paleo started as a way to keep myself accountable and…

The Eighty Twenty is an awesome online magazine for woman trying to balance a healthy life. There are tons of articles on fitness, books, recipes…
Grilled Lemon Zucchini
Lately I have been being a “tourist” in my own city. After living in LA for three years, it is crazy how much I haven’t seen or done. In the last week, I’ve visited a pumpkin patch in the OC, walked around Downtown Disney in Minnie Mouse ears and found one of the two remaining…
Paleo Roasted Artichokes on Zucchini Noodles with Lemon Garlic Sauce
Keeping on the straight and narrow isn’t always so easy. I went hard core Paleo for the first seven months then something happened and little cheats started creeping back into my diet. Soon I had fallen completely off the wagon. I was upset with myself that I’d let my “little cheats” get so out of…
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…
