Sometimes I take a step back and survey my life. I am currently sitting in my very messy room typing on my laptop the 4th blog post that I’ve written today. And it’s not just any blog post, it’s a blog post for Fat Bombs. If you had told me 6 years ago that part…
Paleo S’mores Cake
I’d like to tell you that this post is inspired by the fact that it is bonfire season (and indeed, I’d never miss a good bonfire), but really it’s because I’m obsessed with making homemade marshmallows with gelatin and stevia. So much so that I am currently clean out of gelatin. I just love being…
Paleo Sandwich Thins (nut-free, egg-free, vegan, low-carb)
The day after I got back from Paleo f(x) my dad grilled delicious beef burgers and we ate them with lettuce leaves as usual. But while we were eating Dad made a comment that he missed burger buns; and that was all I needed to get the wheels of my brain turning. I was super…
AIP Waffles
This is one of those posts that I made the recipe, took photos, edited everything, and then went to Paleo f(x) and forgot about the recipe. I rediscovered it in my post drafts and had to get it posted; these waffles are amazing! These easy waffles are a great intro to cooking with plantains as…
Chocolate Coconut Protein Bark
The more collagen I buy or get sent, the more amazing uses I keep thinking for it! I’ve done protein bars, protein waffles, and even protein pancakes. But the thing that I’ve never done is this (drumroll please…) protein CANDY! Protein candy? How is that even a thing? Well, when you consider that most protein bars…
Honey Lemon Paleo Gummy Bears
This recipe is in honor of my beautiful and wonderfully supportive mother. She absolutely loves gummy candy, and her favorite is gummy bears. Basically my mom eats Paleo Plus Gummy Bears. (There’s a diet book idea!!) My mom has also been growing our her hair, so she’s been trying to get more gelatin and collagen…
Mango Strawberry Kale Smoothie
Note: This is a sponsored post written for Perfect Supplements. All opinions and writings are my own. While we’re still getting a few chilly days here, spring has sprung in southern Wisconsin. And you know what that means; fresh berries and tropical fruits are appearing in the produce section! Warmer weather definitely screams smoothies, and…
Paleo Lemon Brownies
I was perusing through Pinterest the other day (so productive – lol) and I saw a pin that would change my life. Well, not really, but this was a very important pin. It was a picture of what the blog post author called “lemon brownies.” They were of course made with wheat flour but they…
No Bake Paleo Magic Cookie Bars
There was a period of time in my childhood that I have decided to refer to as the Magic Cookie Bar Era. What that means is that every time we would go to a get-together, playdate, party, or potluck, my mother would make her amazing 7 layer bars, or magic cookie bars. Come to think…
Paleo Cookie Brownies (egg-free)
I was surfing the web (read; Pinteresting) the other day and came across a cookie-brownie-cookie dough bar recipe that looked totally amazing. It was called Cavity Brownies, and was basically a chocolate chip cookie, crust, a brownie layer, and a cookie dough top layer. I was intrigued and knew I had to make a paleo…
AIP Apple Cinnamon Mini Muffins
There’s been a revelation in the world of AIP baking, and I cannot take credit for it. Rebecca from Lichen Paleo, Loving AIP has a recipe for No-Nut Tigernut Spread (aka homemade AIP nut butter). I was a little skeptical but I had to try making it because I knew it would be totally awesome…

Chocolate Coconut Oil Fat Bombs
Once upon a time, I bought a gummy bear mold with intentions to make homemade gummy bears. But when the mold came I realized I had no gelatin. But I’d already spent a whopping $10.89 of my hard-earned cash, so I had to do something with this mold while I waited for my Vital Proteins…
