All summer long, I have been sipping on this Pink Ombre Drink! After having the original version at Starbucks, I knew I had to recreate it at home like I did the Pink Drink last year. This Paleo Pink Ombre Drink differs from the standard Pink Drink with the addition of lime and passion tea!…
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…
So these Paleo Avocado Everything Bagels aren’t really bagels, but they feature all my favorite bagel things: everything seasoning, avocados and of course cream cheese! Oh cream cheese how I love you, but my body does not. Damn lactose intolerance. I’ve been on the hunt for a good dairy-free cream cheese for a while now,…
Growing up my mom’s key lime pie was one of my absolute favorite deserts. The creamy combination of sour and sweet hit the spot every time! I wanted to create my mom’s pie but put my own spin on it, so I decided to create this Paleo and Vegan Key Lime Pie Dip. If you…
A few weeks ago, I hosted a Game of Thrones watch party, and I searched the internet for recipe inspiration. While I found a ton of great ideas, none were exactly paleo friendly or even close. So I decided to recreate my own recipes into Game of Thrones Paleo Party food for the occasion! I…
Who else would agree with me that summer is amazing because it is also grilling season?? I love burgers, and I am so excited how these Paleo Jalapeño Ranch Burgers turned out!

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…
How is it almost July? Where is 2017 going, and why is it going by so fast? One good thing about it almost being July, means that July 4th is right around the corner. I love the Fourth of July! There is nothing better that outdoor grilling, fireworks, and spending time with friends and family….
Guess what today is? Plaid & Paleo’s Fourth Anniversary! Four years ago, I launched a little blog as simply a way to stay accountable to eating healthy. I mainly made other people’s recipes and posted terrible photos from my iPhone with a link to that blogger’s site. I never dreamed I would be creating my…
A few weeks ago, I jetted down to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico for a long weekend at the Hard Rock Vallarta Hotel. While I was technically there for work, my stay honestly didn’t feel like work at all. From the start, I was greeted by the extremely friendly staff before being led to my room. As…
Guys… and girls… the 100 degree temperatures are already starting here in Arizona, and I am already melting. When the temperatures begin to rise, I find myself gravitating toward no cook meals and side dishes. Coleslaw is one of my favorite summer time side dishes. There is just something about summer barbecues and coleslaw that…
