25 Paleo Thanksgiving Salads, Sides & Desserts
I have a confession: I've never made a turkey and I'm a little afraid to. There are too many methods to choose from and too much pressure to get it right. But salads? Sides? I'm all about those. Not to mention the desserts - but you probably already knew that. Last year I vowed that this would be the year to face my fears and learn to cook a turkey, but I guess I wasn't specific enough because the fates have me cooking a slightly different kind of turkey this year, who is due precisely ...

Gluten Free and Paleo Grilled Pizza, 2 ways (with Simple Mills)
It's a billion degrees and I love it. When you're a person of low body heat who lives in a climate that, at it's most vile, rivals the average temperature of Siberia, you embrace the heat. You celebrate the heat. You ... add more heat. I'm the person who doesn't bat an eye at turning on the stove or standing over a hot grill when it's 90 degrees and I barely notice it. ...

10 Surprising Healthy Foods That Freeze Well
I think my all-time record for not grocery shopping was 5 weeks. I wasn't out of town, I wasn't eating out very much, and I did stop at the store to pick up odds and ends, mostly eggs for breakfast and baby greens to keep myself in salads. Other than that, how did we survive? Hold on to your hats, folks, because I'm about to tell you the not-so-secret secret to healthy eating: The Freezer. Freezing means you can make healthy food ahead of time and eat it when you're ready. It means you can ... Read More about 10 Surprising Healthy Foods That Freeze Well
A Week of Make-Ahead Paleo Freezer Dinners
I'm starting to really miss cooking. There's nothing more calming at the end of a busy day - to me, anyway - than putting together a nice, but non-fussy meal that tastes great and leaves you feeling relaxed and satisfied. Unfortunately, that one-calming task has been super stressful lately with lots of travel, work deadlines, wedding excitement (a friend's, not mine, although mine and my husband's first anniversary was in there too), and, of course, the mounting chaos of the ongoing renovation. ...

Roasted Garlic Babaganoush (Gluten Free, Paleo, and Vegan)
The minute Labor Day was over, the skies took a look at the calendar, noticed the date and opened up like a ... well I can only think of closing and locking similes (doors! prison gates!), so just complete that brilliant and witty sentence for yourselves. Anyway, farewell, summer. You were a good summer, full of sunny days and beaming rays of sun. We definitely got our Vitamin D this year. And, more importantly, so did the veggies. The best part of summer is obviously the veggies (beach ... Read More about Roasted Garlic Babaganoush (Gluten Free, Paleo, and Vegan)
Surviving London (If You’re Gluten Free and Paleo)
If you’ve been reading this blog or following me on Instagram for the last few weeks, you already know that I have been in Europe on my honeymoon. It was fantastic and the food was probably the best part. Sorry to rub it in; I only mention it because I managed to go the whole trip to London, Paris and Istanbul without eating any bread or pastry, little dairy, and nearly any refined sugar. It IS possible. I made a few exceptions to my normal diet – primarily to allow some rice, potatoes, ... Read More about Surviving London (If You’re Gluten Free and Paleo)
Thin Crust Pizza (Gluten Free and Paleo)
Every so often, something gets dropped on your lap (or, in your mailbox, as it were) that is so wonderful that it doesn't leave your side for at least a few days, and the cookbook from whence this grain free thin crust pizza came is one of those things. I took it to the gym to read on the elliptical; I read it in bed; I dreamed of this pizza. I'm completely serious. I'm probably going to get kicked out of the midwest for this, but I am squarely in the thin crust pizza camp. Not too thin that ... Read More about Thin Crust Pizza (Gluten Free and Paleo)
Paleo-ish Veggie Sliders (gluten free)
Pop quiz: what goes better with sweet potato fries than a burger? Answer: sliders. Why? It's just a rule of the universe. Duh. Veggie sliders are inarguably better than beef sliders, though, especially when you're someone who hates beef and likes arguing (me), or someone who doesn't like meat but whose stomach can't handle, um, anything from the grain or legume families (also me). Because of my sensitivity to legumes, I try to limit my intake to the good stuff like bean-based ... Read More about Paleo-ish Veggie Sliders (gluten free)
