Paleo Hamburger Stir Fry with Cabbage and Carrot Noodles
Sometimes I want to eat something kind of fancy, but all I have is ground beef. That’s how this recipe was born; I wanted a fancy-ish lunch with minimal effort and ingredients I already had in the cupboard. I had a lot of fun making carrot noodles with my new spiral veggie cutter, and the…

Well, it’s Day 9 of the 21 Day Sugar Detox! I’ve had tons of energy lately and my appetite has been awesome (hungry at meals, not hungry in between)! I’m also finding out all the amazing ways you can cook with a green banana (I’m currently perfecting a 21DSD chocolate chip cookie recipe with green…
21DSD Beef and “Rice” Burrito Bowls + 21DSD day 2 updates
Yesterday was day two on my first-ever 21 Day Sugar Detox; I started on January 4 and I am loving it so far. Now I can’t say that I am not craving chocolate (and cheese; who am I kidding), and it is really hard for me not to nosh on cashews; they’re my favorite nut…
Paleo Breakfast Casserole
In our house, Breakfast Casserole means something very specific. Every year around the holiday season, we usually have family stay at our house and the customary breakfast used to be an egg and veggie casserole with a base of tater tots and topped with olive, onions, mushrooms, and peppers. When we went paleo, we subbed…
30 Minute Stuffed Acorn Squash
Fall comes early here in southern Wisconsin, and I couldn’t be more excited. Hunting season is just around the corner. I really think this is the year I’ll land a nice buck. We just got a scope mounted on the new rifle, and I’m daydreaming about how awesome this stuffed squash would taste with ground…
15 Paleo Meals Under 15 Minutes
I love cooking, and I could spend all day in the kitchen. Actually, I often do. Long, involved recipes do not faze me. But sometimes you’re starving and late for work, so you get home late and the kids are begging you for dinner. That’s what this list of recipes is for – all of…
Summer Minestrone Soup
Minestrone soup brings back a lot of memories for me. I remember the first time I went to Olive Garden. I went with my mom and we ordered their minestrone and amazing salad. Then we ate. And ate. Their minestrone is so delicious. After the delicious minestrone meal we went to see The Nutcracker…
Cassava Flour Pizza Crust (paleo thin crust)
My family loves pizza. Before paleo, we loved to have make-you-own-pizza movie nights. Mom would make her famous herbed pizza dough, and then we would all roll out our little circles of dough and top the crusts to our hearts’ desires. We went through a lot of paleo pizza dough recipes to find one…
Creamy Butternut Squash Lasagna (AIP, guest post on The Paleo Mom)
My family has a long history of casseroles. My favorite supper as a child was my grandmother’s tater tot casserole, which involved beef, cheese, tater tots, and of course the ever-present cream of mystery soup. I also loved my mother’s chicken and rice casserole, which for me was more of a rice casserole with a…

Paleo Beef Stew
Stew is probably my favorite meal to cook. It’s not quick, but the process requires only real, whole foods, a little know-how, and lots of love. Creating a great stew is like painting a picture, layer upon layer, to make the finished dish flavorful and complex; truly a masterpiece. This beef stew is full…
