We are a very meat-and-potatoes family. Give us a nice roast, some baked potatoes, and lots of butter, salt, and pepper, and we are happy campers. Sometimes though, I like to sneak in little surprises. Like putting beef heart in stew, or adding liver to meatloaf (I actually haven’t gotten the courage to try…

Coconut Chia Cranberry Paleo Energy Bars
I am slightly obsessed with chia seeds lately. I know, I know, they’re not a superfood, but they do have some good fiber and they are so versatile for cooking. I have been eating chia puddings pretty much every morning, and I also love chia seeds in kombucha. Chia seeds are pretty…

Strawberry Shortcake Paleo Pancakes

She would whip up her amazing, fluffy, whole wheat pancakes, and then she would top them with fresh sliced strawberries and whipped cream. She only made it in springtime because that’s when strawberries are on sale. I always knew it was spring when Mom…
