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 Sausage Hash with Mushrooms
My mom loves to eat my food. Seriously, every time I make a new dish, she’s in the kitchen asking me for some! As a result, I made two batches of this hash within the space of an hour yesterday. Her exact words: “Whenever you make something, just assume I want some.” High praise indeed!…
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…
Crispy Plantain Chips
Good morning everyone! I finally found fifteen minutes to write a blog post! I hope no one has stopped following my blog, because this recipe is sure to impress. Like the title implies, this recipe is my go-to fix when I want chips. I make chips from plantains! What is a plantain, you ask? It’s…
Italian-Inspired Paleo Beef Stew (Beef Stew 101)
I am posting this recipe by request after I made it for a potluck this last Friday. I am very glad for the chance to post it because it gives me the chance to educate you guys on proper stew-making! Sorry there’s no pic; It was all eaten up before I could take one! I…
Avocado Dip with Dill
You all know how much I love avocado, so I thought this post was only natural. I whipped this up last night when I was feeling the need for avocado dressing on my salad. It actually didn’t work on salad as well as I had hoped, but as a dipper for crudites there’s nothing better!…

Paleo Chicken Curry
For my birthday, Mom and I went to this amazing Thai restaurant in Madison and porked out on their to-die-for chicken curry. I wasn’t originally aiming to replicate it when I made up this recipe, but it tastes almost exactly like it! I love this curry because it’s easy and it doesn’t have non-staple ingredients…
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…
Quick “No Oats” Paleo Hot Cereal Mix
It was the morning of my 16th birthday. I was surfing the Internet looking for fun recipes when I stumbled across a paleo porridge recipe. It looked amazing and I had everything. I made it and I couldn’t believe it, but it tasted exactly like the regular oatmeal that I’d been missing for so long!…
Bacon Wrapped Steaks
Ok…..so like I’m not trying to brag or anything but Dad says this is the best meal he’s had in a long time! It all started this morning when Mom asked me if we should have bacon wrapped venison tonight; I always like my deer meat so I was all for it. Then I ended…
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 Crackers with Dill
I whipped up these fun crackers yesterday afternoon and even Julia lapped them up! Mom raved about the dill and said they were the best paleo crackers she’s ever had! I love them because they don’t totally exhaust our resources of almond flour, yet the recipe makes lots of crackers. I also love them because…
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…
