I spent the weekend in Kansas at my alma mater, the University of Kansas. It was a great time with friends in a city that stole my heart years ago. Lawrence, Kansas is the quintessential college town full of students, extreme enthusiasm for sports, tons of bars and its own unique flair. There is nothing…
Fall is officially here. The day before the official start of fall, the weather cooled off. I’m still getting used to the changing seasons. In Los Angeles, the difference between summer and winter was a 20 degree spread. The gradual change from 80s to 60s goes almost unnoticed until it is back to 80s. This…
Guess what?! Today is my birthday! To celebrate I figured I would share one of my favorite new recipes! These carrot ginger meatballs are out of this world! I am not exaggerating at all. Most people might celebrate with sweets, but I wanted share something you can enjoy any day of the year. The shredded…
Better late than never. I had all intention of putting this recipe up yesterday, but then life happened and rain happened. Did you know taking pictures when it is raining is the worst? I am considering buying some lights so rain can’t derail my photo days, but I don’t even know where to start. I…
So this weekend was rough. Well rough in the sports world. My alma mater is known as a basketball university but I still love football; however, watching my school play football is something of a painful experience. We were actually pretty good when I was in college but oh how the team has fallen. We…
Who here loves brunch? I’ve talked about my brunch obsession before and I will definitely talk about it in the future. For me brunch is the best of both worlds. Sweet and savory. You don’t have to pick. You can have it all! Or at least if you go to brunch with someone who is…
Any Panda Express fans out there? I had my first encounter with Panda Express shortly after moving to Los Angeles. This was far before the word Paleo ever filtered through my ears. I fell hard for Panda Express. Do you want to add another entree for one dollar? Ok! How about a spring roll? Ok!…
One of my most popular recipes is my sweet potato and sausage breakfast casserole. I love this dish so much, and it is perfect for feeding large families. Most of the time though I am cooking for just myself. I want to start sharing more recipes with smaller serving sizes because I know I can’t…
Happy Monday! Just kidding it’s already Tuesday. Which is pretty exciting because it means the weekend is only a couple days away. Yes I understand the weekend just ended but I do love the weekend, and there are only a few left before summer melts into fall. Summer is my favorite season but this one…
While in Maine, I sampled some amazing food! From the lobster to the oysters, I was very impressed with the fresh cuisine. I’ve been a seafood skeptic for a while now. I don’t like anything too fishy. I pressed my boundaries in Greece splitting a whole grilled red snapper with friends. I pushed myself a…
One of the very first recipes on my blog was coconut crusted chicken tenders. I still love this recipe. It was one of my go-to recipes when I first started eating Paleo. Easy recipes were a lifesaver when making the transition to paleo. As I will soon celebrate my two-year paleo anniversary, I have started…
I had the pleasure of hearing Sarah Ballantyne, aka The Paleo Mom, speak at Paleo FX earlier this year. Prior to her talk, I wasn’t super familiar with the autoimmune protocol (AIP). I learned so much about not only AIP, but also which are the most nutrient foods. I am still trying to add more…
