My sweet little sister turns FIFTEEN this Valentine’s day; it’s crazy because I remember when I turned fifteen; I felt so old and mature – lol. And let’s not even talk about the fact that I’m going to be nineteen this month; yes we won’t even mention it. Anyway, my sister is sensitive to gluten,…
AIP Banana Muffins (paleo, vegan)
I’ve made many, many versions of AIP banana muffins before I came up with the perfect recipe. But it was worth it; these delicious muffins are fluffy and soft and they rise and cook through and everything! Plus there’s no gelatin involved, so they’re vegan too! The secret to the amazingness of these muffins is plantain…
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…
Salted Toffee Brownie Doughnuts – egg-free
Valentine’s Day is coming quickly, and I love any excuse to eat chocolate! That was pretty much the extent of rationalization that I needed to make these doughnuts. I also just bought myself some water chestnut flour, and I have to say that when it comes to egg-free paleo baking, water chestnut flour is a…

AIP Lemon Scones
I love lemon in any form. When I was little my grandma would make lemon loaf cake. Lemonade was always my jam. Now I like lemon water, but I thought I’d mix it up a little and make scones! These amazing scones are egg-free but you’d never know it. They’re luscious and lemony with a…

I’m not even sure that I need to say anything about this recipe. But because I’m told it’s good for search engines, here goes: These AIP banana bread doughnuts with creamy frosting are DA BOMB and you definitely cannot tell that they are free of grains, nuts, seeds, and (drumroll please)… EGGS!

20+ Egg Free Whole30 Breakfasts (21DSD too!)
Breakfast can be hard when you’re doing a Whole30 or 21DSD! I know I get tired of eggs and my dad is allergic to eggs. Here’s 20+ egg free whole30 breakfast ideas! These can be modified to be 21DSD: If the recipe contains banana, use green-tipped. If the recipe contains apple, use granny smith. If…
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…
AIP Sugar Cookies
I have the best memories of making whole-wheat sugar cookies with Grandma before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. I loved to eat the dough; so yummy! Last year I made some almond flour sugar cookies that were so delicious. This year though, I know that so many people can’t eat nuts, eggs, or seeds….
AIP Paleo Apple Cider Doughnuts
My dad and I were having a discussion last night about what food we would eat if we could be magically cured of gluten sensitivity. It didn’t take long at all for us both to decide that the food we would eat would be fresh apple cider doughnuts from the apple orchard. This is not…
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…
AIP Pancakes
It’s taken me a long time to get this recipe right. I’ve had to throw away piles of mushy batter dozens and dozens of times in my attempts to make AIP pancakes. But I kept on trying because I am just that motivated. Or stubborn. Probably stubborn. Whatever the case, I finally did it….
AIP Brownies
See that picture? Those are AIP brownies. This is the 5th brownie recipe that I’m posting on the blog. And guess what: I’m not sorry. Not even a little. Why? Because brownies are awesome. But also because I want everyone to be able to eat brownies. I’ve got a brownie recipe for you if you’re…
AIP No Bake Cookies
Do you love cookies but hate heating up the house? It was about 90 degrees here last week and ever time I wanted to cook something I cringed at the though of heating up the house. I did it anyway because I’m a die-hard baking fanatic, but that’s not the point here. The…
