Sweet potatoes are one of those foods that you either love or hate. I love them because they taste so sweet to me that I feel like I’m eating a treat and I can say I’m eating a vegetable; what? Win-win if you ask me. My dad, on the other hand, thinks that sweet potatoes…
Paleo Honey Bunches of “N’ Oats”
If there’s one thing that I hate about using a food processor, it’s having to stop the food processor and scrape down the sides because whatever food I’m processing invariably gets stuck to them. So I thought of an amazing solution: I removed the cap attachment from the food processor cover so that the cover…

Coconut Cacao Paleo Protein Bars
It’s no secret that I love a good paleo snack bar. Recently I’ve tried RX bars, which are not only Whole30 approved, but delicious, and I loved not only how they tasted, but also how energized and good I felt after eating them. However, RX bars can be a a bit pricey, and if you…
Paleo Rolls 2.0 (Nut-free, Yeast-free, Coconut-free)
A good roll is definitely a must in our house when the holidays roll around. Before paleo, we would all eat Grandma’s delicious homemade whole wheat rolls, and before I was diagnosed with celiac, I definitely still cheated on Thanksgiving and ate one slathered with butter. I’m now to the point where touching bread makes…
Banana Chia Seed Paleo Breakfast Cake (nut-free, 21DSD-compliant)
When I first went paleo, I ate a lot of muffins and pancakes for breakfast. I would bake a large batch of muffins on the weekend and we would have them all week. Over the years breakfast has become more chill at our house, but when we have company we like to bake something sweet…

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…
Paleo Butterfingers
It’s funny; this is the first “Halloween candy” post that I’ve ever done in four years in the blogging space. Reason being that our family never really did Halloween. For me, Octobers are about eating too much pumpkin custard, watching Packer football, wearing fuzzy sweaters, and prepping for the Thanksgiving deer hunting season. The only…
Paleo Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls
So I now have 22 cups of homemade pumpkin puree in the freezer. (Watch me make it here.) So what? It means that there are more pumpkin recipes coming your way! I can’t stop. These paleo pumpkin cinnamon rolls are so amazing. Soft, chewy, bready, and amazing. The pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice really…

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…
Paleo Pumpkin Pudding
This paleo pumpkin pudding is for all you pie-crust challenged peeps. Because after all, pumpkin pie is just a custard with a crust right? Year after year as the holidays rolled around, my mother and made crust after crusty recipe. Fully 8 out of 10 crusts would collapse or shrink or crumble or explode like…

Pomegranate Chicken Salad with Pears
I remember the first time I ever ate a pomegranate. I was probably three or four years old at the time and I was at a friend’s house with my twin brother, and for some reason I was given a part of a pomegranate. I picked out and ate each of little seeds with my…
