February is birthday month in my family; My twin brother and I are going to be 20 (!!!) and my little sister is going to be 16! I remember when I turned 16 and I thought I was sooooo old and mature. And so now I guess my little sister is old and mature as…
Cassava Flour Sugar Cookies
I have made these cookies like 5 times in the last 5 days. They just keep disappearing, so I have to make more. I mean it’s not like we’re eating that many cookies of course. Definitely not. But the few cookies we have eaten, IN MODERATION, of course, have been delicious. Perfectly sweet, chewy, dense…
Paleo Peppermint Bark
I am so excited for Christmas!! Seriously though I’m feeling very self-righteous right now because I’ve got my Christmas shopping nearly done. That’s definitely not normal for me; usually I’m just starting shopping now. But enough about me let’s talk about peppermint bark! I love chocolate, both dark and white, and this combo of the…
Perfect Coconut Flour Brownies
So let’s talk about coconut flour. That’s the point where I can feel your eyes glazing over because seriously who wants to talk about the isolated fiber of a coconut? Me, that’s who! Why? Because I am a nerd. But also because the discussion involves brownies. Oh, are your ears perking up? Do you mean…
Paleo Skillet Peach Crisp
So it’s confession time: When I see ripe and delicious fruit sitting on our counter, what do you think I see? A healthy paleo afternoon snack with a dollop of almond butter? HAHA no. I see dessert. Not as in I’m so healthy I eat fruit as dessert, but I see the muffin or cake…
Easy Paleo Lemon Cake
I love my family. One of the things I love about it is that we all really enjoy spending time together, even if a hangout is a teensy bit short-notice. But we always need some dessert; so I love having quick recipes on hand. A lot of times we will make gluten-free brownies but I…
AIP Strawberry Shortcake
During this season my mom always brings home lots of delicious and nutritious berries from the store when she shops each week. We love them for snacks and such, but if you’ve ever had a ton of beautiful red strawberries in your fridge you know they just sit there and basically beg you to cook…
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…
Paleo No Bake Brownies
So something momentous happened a couple of days ago that has nothing to do with brownies. And actually it has nothing to do with me. Well actually it sort of does. But not really. Heather, quit babbling and tell me what it is! Ok fine, if you’re going to be like that. My little sister,…
60+ Paleo Snacks
Let’s talk about paleo snacks. And I don’t mean some silliness like ‘got paleo snacks?? HERE’s some paleo snacks for you!’ Nope, this is a heart to heart conversation. You know, in blog post form. Because raise your hand if you can eat super well at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but that doughnut or…
Paleo Strawberry Ice Cream (dairy-free, coconut-free, egg-free)
Wisconsin is Amish-central, and we have an Amish farmer right down the road who grows fresh strawberries. They’re juicy, sweet, delicious, and make supermarket strawberries seem like wax imitations of the real thing! My family love ice cream, and when I made this super-simple recipe for them, it was gone within just a couple of…
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…
Paleo Protein Brownies (egg and nut-free)
Let’s talk about big words. Here’s a ton of big words: “My sufficiency has been serensified. Any more would be obnoxious to my superfluity.” Apparently this is something that my grandparents say occasionally when they don’t want any more food; we found this out on a recent vacation we went on with them. I now…
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…
