All my life I’ve been using store bought deodorants. I used to always get tired of their potent smell, of how weird it felt taking a shower and trying to remove that sticky (almost rubbery) feel it left behind, of how it stung when applying it right after shaving…goodness, so many “inconveniences” deodorants would give me. Do you feel the same way about your current deodorant too? Or am I the only crazy one? In any case, if you are a bit unsure about your deodorant and all the ingredients Read more [...]

I love making people happy. I love to create. I love to share. I love to feed. When you add all of those up, what do you get? Bread making time! You may be thinking…”moooore bread recipes?!” Well.

  Welcome to the second day of Amazing Paleo BREADS! Today we have a lovely banana bread recipe for you to try. It’s a total winner. My full loaf of banana bread is almost gone, but boy do I have great plans for the slices we have left! I am planning on using my very last slices to make Paleo Banana Bread French toast! Doesn’t that just sound incredible? I think so. Sunday brunch cannot come soon enough. ;) Everyone in their right mind loves some sweet banana bread, so I just thought that Read more [...]

Do Paleo people feel the need to have bread once in a while? YES. Goodness, yes! At least I do for sure. I love bread. Love its texture, love all that you can make with it (sandwiches, french toast, etc.) and I especially love how fun it is to eat it (its ok, you can call me weird). Bread makes me feel all sorts of happy. Can you tell I have a thing for it? Because of this strong love I have for bread, I am dedicating the next two blog posts solely to it. These recipes wont be the savory kind, Read more [...]

Hi lovely Paleo people! It’s been a while and I have missed you. ;) I hope you all had a wonderful Valentine’s Day! I am sorry I didn’t post this recipe a bit sooner (as it would’ve been a perfect way to finish a romantic date), but hey, better late than never right? You can still prepare this for someone special (just because you love them), for a birthday party, a dinner party or any special occasion.

"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change and though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea; though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains quake at its swelling pride. Selah. The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our stronghold." Psalm 46:1-3,7   “God I trust You.” These are words I kept repeating to myself over and over again last Friday night. These brought strength and peace Read more [...]

Who doesn’t crave sweets once in a while? If someone says they don’t , well…I’d like to meet this person face to face and ask them what their secret is. Cravings are totally normal. I crave sweets all the time, and just like me, I bet a lot of you do as well. It's good to know we're not alone on this one, huh!? I find comfort in knowing that the Paleo diet is not limiting at all when it comes to treats. That with a bit of creativity and a few key ingredients, one can create wonderful Read more [...]

Before I show you how to make Chocolate Chip n' Macadamia Nut Cookies, I have exciting news! My husband and I are getting a new apartment in the heart of downtown Boise!

We are thrilled and cannot wait to get all settled in. This means, Amazing Paleo will now have a new kitchen! Read more [...]

* Guest Blogger: Bonnie Lewis, from Bonnie the Baker :) At what point in our lives do we go from having opinions to have convictions?  An old pastor of mine once said that as he got older, his list of convictions got shorter and his list of opinions got longer.  I guess this means that as he learned more and more he allowed his mind to be changed, and things that he once felt very rigid about became a part of a category in which he held his thoughts loosely.  On the other hand, his list of convictions Read more [...]
