I am obsessed with all things pumpkin these days. Can I just eat pumpkin for every meal? So delicious, and so many ways to use it too. I am also a total chocolate lover. Especially dark chocolate. So I decided mixing pumpkin and chocolate couldn’t be a bad idea. I was right. This pumpkin fudge…
The Perfect Paleo Snickerdoodles
I hate computers and I love the Internet. Two days ago, something weird happened on my website and ALL my recipes disappeared. My pictures were still there, but all of my cute little recipe forms were gone. I called my host FIVE times, my amazing tech-savvy aunt twice, I emailed my theme author, and I…
Paleo Butternut Squash Brownies
It’s fall. There. I said it. I WILL NOT say what season is coming after fall. Nope, the W-word is not in by vocabulary until December. Right now, I just want to enjoy fall. Can I just have fall and eat pumpkins and apples and squash and and cinnamon spice and the weather never…
Dairy Free Cheesy Potato Casserole (with AIP option)
Up here in the Midwest, we love food. We especially love eating food with friends. The average joe’s paridise up here is a nice big potluck. And the most favored food here? Cheese, of course. You know you’re in the Midwest when you find a huge dish of cheesy potatoes at every potluck, get-together, and…
Paleo Pumpkin Snickerdoodles
I feel like fall has come. I was so happy with nice hot summer, and then BOOM – Labor day was here, school started (yay for advanced biology!), and the temps dropped about 20 degrees. I really can’t complain; I really enjoy the 60’s to 70’s temps, and the leaves are just starting to…
Paleo Crusty Bread
I have been on a quest for a good paleo bread for a long time. I wanted a paleo crusty bread loaf that had that “real bread” look, texture, and taste. When I made a savory soup or paleo pasta dish, I often wish for something to mop up that last bit of sauce with, or to…

Paleo Bagels
This recipe is for the bagel purists. There are so many recipes on the Internet for paleo bagels, but most of them are just savory muffin batter baked in doughnut pans. Forgive me, but that just isn’t a bagel. I feel like if you’re going to eat bread, or a bagel, or a pancake, or…
Perfect Paleo Flatbread
It’s not often that I make a recipe more than once before posting it, but this recipe has gotten made in our house three times in the last three days. And there are only four pieces left as I type. I keep finding excuses to make it, and we all find excuses to eat it….

Paleo Banana Bread Bars (No Egg Whites)
When I made this paleo banana bread recipe, we were overrun with bananas that all decided to ripen together. Like a few pounds of them. No one in our house really likes to eat bananas just by themselves; oh no; we must have freshly baked banana bread. Even my dad, who really doesn’t like…

Paleo Apple Cherry Muffins
I love making treats that are relatively guilt-free. These muffins are only fruit-sweetened. I am known in my family for not making things sweet enough, but my family, including my teenage brother, loves these muffins. I have been making so many treats for my blog lately, they are starting to clutter up our fridge. …
No-Fail Avocado Fudge
I am notorious for my terrible fudge-making skills. I’ve probably tried to make a fudge recipe at least five different times, and failed every time. It was a very depressing time in my life. One time I even tried a traditional recipe for fudge that I found online. It didn’t set up AT ALL. It…
Paleo Zucchini Muffins
I remember the first time we got a pattypan squash. It was last summer at one of our local farmers markets. Pattypans are sooo cute, and we love to saute them or roast them with some garlic and sea salt. Today was my day off though, and I felt like doing something a…
Ultimate Paleo Chocolate Macaroons
It seems like every third recipe that I post has something to do with chocolate. I really am a bit of a chocolate fanatic. Not just any chocolate, but real, dark, high quality chocolate. If the chocolate is good enough, I can even eat it with no added sugar. Just the pure goodness of…
