I had quite the time making this recipe. The first test batch that I made I forgot to put any sort of oil in, so the waffles with quite dry. And twice I accidentally dumped in Penzey’s Galena Street Rub spice mix (which is very savory) instead of cinnamon! Needless to say, when I finally…
21DSD Apple Muffins
I’ts day 16 of the 21 Day Sugar Detox! I’m feeling like I have good energy, but man, I really want chocolate. Less than a week to go! In the meantime, I am loving these cute little apple muffins. I’ve been doing a lot with green bananas lately, but the green apples need a little…
Paleo Chicken Broccoli Alfredo Pizza (21DSD, nut-free)
I’m just going to say this before anyone else does: Now Inside Out is one of my favorite movies (and that line is probably my favorite), but I don’t live in San Francisco, and here in rural Wisconsin, you can pay a lot of money at a pizza place for a chicken broccoli alfredo pizza,…
Paleo Taco Casserole (21DSD)
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…
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…
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…
AIP Blueberry Muffins
This recipe has been in the works for a long time. Longer than I’d like to admit, actually. I’ve wanted to make AIP blueberry muffins for a really long time, and well, I kept failing. While I literally spit out some of my creations, I kept trying, because I love a challenge. Probably too…
AIP Biscuits with garlic and “cheese”
My family sometimes jokes about all the food allergies we have in our house. I’m celiac, and other members of the fam are allergic to dairy and eggs. Plus we eat mostly paleo. So this makes baking somewhat of a challenge at times. Most of the gluten-free or grain-free breads out there either contain eggs…
Bacon and Avocado Kelp Noodle Salad
When I was younger, my favorite cookout food was the pasta salad. No joke. Even when I went paleo, I could forego the bun and potatoes and chips and soda, but I always had to have a scoop of the pasta salad. Now that I’m a diagnosed celiac, cookout pasta salad cheats are out…
AIP Sweet Potato Bread
I love finding new ingredients to play with. Especially fun new flours, because baking is one of my favorite hobbies. So when I got these flours in the mail from Anti-Grain, I was beyond excited. I guess you know you’re a paleo blogger when your day is made by receiving sweet potato, apple, and squash…
AIP Scones with Raspberries
When I was 7 years old, and was absolutely obsessed with my Easy Bake oven. I loved to stir up the little mixes, scoop them into the pan, and push them into the oven. The seconds would tick by so slowly as I waited for my confection to bake. When the timer finally beeped, I…
AIP Breakfast Bars with Applesauce and Raisins
I have kind of a thing for bars. I don’t know what it is, but I just love the idea of being able to grab a delicious bar and eat it and be fueled. The problem is, most paleo-friendly bars are either not very good, or they are a big loaf of nuts and seeds….
