So, I made it! I survived three weeks of a sugar detox. I didn’t really think I could do it. For some reason, it seemed out of my reach. I mean, how could I possibly not eat bread, pizza, cookies, PASTA, or have a glass of wine for three weeks? I think the key […]
Paleo Meatball Stroganoff
Here you’ll find a Paleo adaptation from a recipe in The Warm Kitchen. I’ve been experimenting with Paleo a lot more lately and I find that it’s a way of eating that really resonates with me. You can expect to hear more about my adventures with Paleo in an upcoming blog post, but in the […]
Best Paleo Banana Bread
I do a lot of experimenting in the kitchen. Some times things just don’t work. You don’t hear too much about those. And some times I hit it out of the park. Well, this is the case with this recipe. I found the right balance of sweet, moistness, and banana flavor with no grains, gluten, or […]
Eggplant zucchini bolognese paleo lasagna
If anyone knows me, they know that when I’m in the kitchen, sometimes I just make stuff up. Take tonight for example. I am currently following the 21 Day Sugar Detox* (21DSD) from Diane Sanfilippo. She has a recipe in the 21DSD cookbook* for a veggie lasagne. I would say that was my inspiration for this […]
Gluten-Free Gingerbread Cookie Recipe (Dairy-Free, too!)
Generally when I see pictures of gingerbread cookies, I know they are off limits. So, along with recipes for many of my other favorite holiday cookies, I have one for a gluten-free gingerbread.

The company started shipping their three gluten-free products over the summer and grocery stores […]
Zenbelly Cookbook Review
When I first heard about eating paleo, I just didn’t get it. I didn’t understand why people would give up grains and sugar. Now I do and let me tell you, if you are paleo and enjoy eating (like most of us do), you are going to love this cookbook. First, let me tell you […]

Mashed Cauliflower and 52 New Foods book review
When Jennifer Tyler Lee asked me to be a part of the blogger challenge for her new book, The 52 New Foods Challenge, I was excited to help. Jennifer and I met a few years ago, realizing we had a similar passion when it comes to feeding our families healthy foods. She is also the […]
Burrito Casserole
When you’re craving a burrito, is it really that gluten-containing tortilla you’re after? My guess is that it’s actually the hearty combination of fillings–the rice, beans, cheese, meat, etc. that got your mouth watering in the first place. Sure you could always make or buy gluten-free tortillas, but why not take a twist on the […]
