I just realized that I am posting an ice cream recipe in October. Kinda rebellious since the weather is cooling down, but that’s how I roll. Because who doesn’t want to sit inside as the trees turn yellow and red and chow down on deliciously creamy mint chocolate chip ice cream? Plus this recipe is…
Paleo Breakfast Strata
When I was a kid learning to cook, strata was the one dish that never really made sense to me. Like why add a bunch of bread to an already delicious egg casserole recipe? It always seemed like a source of unnecessary carbs and an extra filler ingredient. That is until I tried Fox Hill…
Sugar Detox Coconut Butter Truffles
My family and I have this running kind-of-joke that some of the desserts that I cook are not sweet enough. In reality they’d probably like me to add probably 2 extra tablespoons of maple syrup to a recipe, but that extra 32 grams of sugar isn’t something I usually think the recipe needs. I think this…
Egg Free Paleo Pancakes (low-carb)
Not to brag, but also, to brag, my cooking skills have come a looooong way. Not like I was a good cook as a small child though, just that I went from becoming a bad cook or no-cook kind of cook to the allergy-free baker I am now. For instance, my first cooking experience was…
Cookie Dough Fat Bombs
Sometimes I take a step back and survey my life. I am currently sitting in my very messy room typing on my laptop the 4th blog post that I’ve written today. And it’s not just any blog post, it’s a blog post for Fat Bombs. If you had told me 6 years ago that part…
Paleo S’mores Cake
I’d like to tell you that this post is inspired by the fact that it is bonfire season (and indeed, I’d never miss a good bonfire), but really it’s because I’m obsessed with making homemade marshmallows with gelatin and stevia. So much so that I am currently clean out of gelatin. I just love being…
Paleo Sandwich Thins (nut-free, egg-free, vegan, low-carb)
The day after I got back from Paleo f(x) my dad grilled delicious beef burgers and we ate them with lettuce leaves as usual. But while we were eating Dad made a comment that he missed burger buns; and that was all I needed to get the wheels of my brain turning. I was super…
Chocolate Coconut Protein Bark
The more collagen I buy or get sent, the more amazing uses I keep thinking for it! I’ve done protein bars, protein waffles, and even protein pancakes. But the thing that I’ve never done is this (drumroll please…) protein CANDY! Protein candy? How is that even a thing? Well, when you consider that most protein bars…
Coconut Flour Donuts – with low-carb option
I remember when I was probably 6 years old we were building our new house and living with our grandparents while we were doing so. Every once in a while for a special treat Grandma would get though little mini vanilla doughnuts for us to enjoy with breakfast; they were so delicious! These vanilla doughnuts…
Chocolate Coconut Oil Fat Bombs
Once upon a time, I bought a gummy bear mold with intentions to make homemade gummy bears. But when the mold came I realized I had no gelatin. But I’d already spent a whopping $10.89 of my hard-earned cash, so I had to do something with this mold while I waited for my Vital Proteins…
Low Carb Pumpkin Bars
I am of the opinion that pumpkin should not just be relegated to fall and Thanksgiving! It’s so much fun to incorporate this delicious squash into my food all months of the year. Pumpkin is also a high-nutrition, low-cal addition to baked goods; and canned organic pumpkin in available all year round; why wouldn’t we…
Low Carb Chocolate Muffins
Ah February. For most, this is the month of Valentine’s day, but for my family, it’s also the month of birthdays! It’s my birthday this month, by brother’s, my sister’s, my dad’s, my grandma’s, my cousin’s, and even our dog’s! So the fact that it’s also Valentine’s is a bit of an afterthought in our…
21DSD Chocolate Chip Cookies (soft-baked)
I believe this recipe took me four tries to perfect, and I have lots of not-quite-perfect cookies in the freezer. It’s difficult to make a perfectly-textured cookie without the use of coconut sugar or maple syrup! But I’m so glad I kept trying, because these cookies are the perfect not-sweet treat. One of these cookies…
Paleo Taco Casserole (21DSD)
Well, it’s Day 9 of the 21 Day Sugar Detox! I’ve had tons of energy lately and my appetite has been awesome (hungry at meals, not hungry in between)! I’m also finding out all the amazing ways you can cook with a green banana (I’m currently perfecting a 21DSD chocolate chip cookie recipe with green…
Low Carb Sandwich Bread
Today is day 8 of my 21 Day Sugar Detox, and I’ve been craving something bready! I have a lot of yummy paleo bread recipes already, but I wanted something that was 21DSD approved that I could make sandwiches with; this recipe was the result! This is still categorized as a “not-sweet treat” on the…
Coconut Flour Flatbread – Paleo, Low-Carb, 21DSD
Yay! My first blog post of 2016! I’m totally going to be writing “2015” and then changing the 5 to 6 after the fact for basically the next six weeks. But that’s ok because it’s a lot easier than changing a 4 to a 5 like I did last year, although I must say that…
