I can't tell you how many times I've come home from a long weekend trip, only to open the door and smell something rotten coming from my kitchen. I make it a point to clean my kitchen before leaving on long trips now, but sometimes there is just one thing I forget to do: run the garbage disposal. That smell really is the worst. My mom has recently gotten hooked on Pinterest and started getting crafty. Instead of just following the directions on the pins, she will make it her own and make it better and easier (something I clearly learned from her). Her most recent discovery ...
Paleo Spaghetti Squash Carbonara Recipe
Winter is almost here, so I'm attempting to expand my cooking knowledge to include more seasonal items, so it was only a matter of time before I tried cooking with squash. I've stopped searching Google for recipes and I have yet to find a Paleo food blog that I *love*, so I turn to Pinterest to look for dishes that I think will be appetizing. When searching for ways to prepare spaghetti squash I kept coming across this pin: Unfortunately this is one of those ghost pins that leads you no where. After some searching I was able to figure out the ingredients of normal squash carbonara ...
Paleo Dessert – Cherry, Coconut, Banana Smoothie
When searching for Paleo recipes on Pinterest, it is becoming increasingly hard to avoid all of the dessert recipes. I'm not one that normally (or ever) craves sweets, but occasionally I miss eating ice cream. This pin in particular caught my eye a few weeks ago: That recipe is easy, with very few ingredients and tastes delicious! When I had a cold last week soup just wasn't cutting it for me, so I whipped up (literally) one of these for lunch. I've never been one that enjoyed (or thought I liked) coconut, so I was a little wary of using so much coconut milk in this recipe, ...
Liquid Dinner Recipe Paleo Style
My cravings for vegetables continues, so in order for me to consume as many veggies as I want without sitting and eating for hours we have taken the juicer out of the cabinet. The last two nights I have consumed almost my entire meal in liquid form, and boy was it good! Last night I also had some small grass-fed lettuce tacos and tonight I had half of a sausage, so my meals haven't been entirely liquid. I love how colorful the fruit and veggies are! (more…)
Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps – Paleo Recipe
One food I love and crave at least once a month are wings. In high school I would go to Jim's Wings in Fort Collins every week for their .25 cent wings. Those were the days. Everyone I knew would be there, stuffing their faces and getting hot sauce and ranch all over their hands and cheeks. Most chicken wings at restaurants aren't really Paleo since they come breaded and instead of baking chicken wings, I decided to dig out the crockpot and make some shredded buffalo chicken. A quick Google/Pinterest search didn't find any Paleo recipes to I made one up. It turned out to be ...
