Peppermint Paleo Hot Cocoa
One of my favorite Christmas tradition that we have is Christmas Cocoa, which we drink while putting up our decorations. Mom used to use Swiss Miss and a candy cane stirrer, but now we enjoy this rich, peppermint-y version of Christmas Cocoa. Enjoy!

No-Bake Chocolate-Dipped Paleo Macaroons
Hey everybody and happy post-Thanksgiving! Is everyone just like super-full? ‘Cause we are. And I must confirm: the pie crusts in the last post were the best pie crusts we have a had in a couple of years. And now on to this recipe. We are a bit sick over here, enduring a bout of…
Paleo Blueberry Mug Cake
Hi all! Sorry for my absence from cyberspace in the recent weeks. I’ve been quite busy with school and work and saving the world, you know. 😉 I whipped up this muffin for a little after-lunch treat and thought it was yummy enough for a quick blog share! This recipe is a variation of my…
Cinnamon Paleo Baked Pears
My mom can go a little crazy sometimes. Like when we go to the Amish produce stand and they have pears for 30 cents a pound, so she buys 30 pounds. Twice. So we now have 60 pounds of pears vegging out in our basement. Not that I’m complaining, of course. I love to cook…
Strawberry Thumbprint Paleo Macaroons
Happy Easter everyone! I had some free time this afternoon and felt like baking; so I whipped these up! I am not that good at baking, but these turned out remarkably well! They are light and sweet and perfect for an Easter party or just an early spring treat. Hope you enjoy them! Strawberry…
Chocolate Avocado Smoothie
Perhaps I should have called this post “How to Get a 12 Year-Old to Eat an Avocado” or something like that because I just made it for Julia and she slurped it right up! I love it because it’s super-creamy and full of amazing fats. You don’t taste the avocado; it just adds a great…
Chocolate Orange Paleo Brownie Mounds
I had the hardest time naming this recipe. I was originally aiming for a chocolate-coconut pavlova with raspberries, but the result of my pavlova attempt was too substantial to be called a pavlova. Then I realized that we didn’t have any raspberies! So I made lemonade out of lemons and recalled that oranges and chocolate…
Paleo Gingerbread Cookies (without molasses)
I was in the mood to make Christmas cookies this weekend, so I decided to recreate a gingerbread cookie recipe that Mom used to make. It did not have molasses, but used butterscotch pudding mix. Man they were good… In order to replicate that flavor, I used lots of vanilla and a healthy dose of…
Paleo Truffles
In practicing my food photography, I needed a new recipe to try out my skills on. That’s the origin of this fudge-y truffle recipe. Conventional recipes for truffles use butter and cream, but I had just made some homemade coconut butter and thought that it might work well. The coconut butter was easy to make…
How to Make Coconut Butter
The following recipe is for coconut butter. The version is made with shredded coconut and therefore very economical. I think it’s delish and I love it with fruit or celery for a snack.

Paleo Coffee Cake with Cinnamon Swirl
Ever wonder if it’s possible to make a healthy cinnamon roll? I did. I looked up recipes and even concocted one of my own, but it was a lot of work and left a lot to be desired when it came to flavor. Then, it hit me. Why not make a plain cake with a…
Paleo Peach Crisp
This peach crisp was a recipe I just came up with yesterday to use up our overabundance of very ripe peaches. Mom raved when she tried it, and I must say, it’s amazing. Paleo Peach Crisp Recipe Type: Fruit Desserts Author: Heather Resler Prep time: 15 mins Cook time: 30 mins Total time: 45…
Paleo Strawberry Shortcake
I think this may be one of the best desserts I’ve ever created. The shortcake is moist and delicious, perfectly complemented by the whipped cream and strawberries. Julia had two huge pieces, Mom raved, Clint lapped his up, while even Dad, who doesn’t eat coconut flour as a rule, liked it. The cool thing about…
