This is Mom’s super-special recipe that she came up with after she had tried to years to find a good recipe for spaghetti sauce. Finally, out of desperation, she threw the ingredients that she thought would taste good into a pot, and voila! The spaghetti sauce recipe that our whole family just loves! You’ve…
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!…

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…
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…

Paleo Grilled Chicken with Italian Marinade
Last night Dad said I could create the marinade for our grilled chicken. I was in the mood for Italian, so I made a marinade recipe based off of Mom’s Italian Dressing recipe. The chicken breasts marinaded for a couple hours and Dad grilled them up on the gas grill. The resulting chicken breasts were…

Cauliflower Rice Pilaf
Ever miss rice? I know I do. But I’ve seen numerous paleo recipes that call for grated cauliflower in place of the rice and I tell you it’s so similar it’s eerie. This recipe was born out of a love for boxed Rice-a-Roni rice pilaf mixes. Mom used to make them before we became…
Paleo Chicken with Red Wine Sauce
I figured out the key to perfect chicken breasts: cut them thin, dredge lightly, sear just to brown, and bake on a rack for just 20-25 minutes, just so a meat thermometer reads 170. The dredging adds a pleasant color and texture to the breasts, as does the browning. Searing them just until the desired…
