Evaporated milk. Do you guys ever use it? I use it once in a blue moon to make desserts, but other than that, I am not one to use evaporated milk. I did a quick search to see what else people use evaporated milk for, and it looks like it’s used for all sorts of stuff! To
I have a feeling a lot of you feel like I do around this time of year: in need of a good strategy to stick with a challenging New Year resolution! Is this you? It always seems like such a great idea (as if it was a piece of cake) to set these exciting resolutions for the
Paleo Cornbread? But corn is not allowed on the Paleo Diet, so how does that work? Well, ma friends, that’s why I absolutely love baking substitutes and why I think there is a ton of power in learning how to be tricky in the kitchen (wink wink)! Let me introduce you to my No-Corn Paleo Cornbread recipe, a Corn Bread
We’ve had raspberries galore in our home these last few weeks, because Whole Foods has had raspberries on sale for a long time now, so naturally, I’ve been adding them to my shopping cart every single time I step foot over there (which is like every other day, #foodbloggerprobs). I’ve had to get creative with how I
Cooking for everyone in the family and pleasing them all with a meal is no easy feat. The grownups crave one thing, the kiddos crave another thing, and then there are food intolerances and allergies to take into consideration. And so, where do you even start? Taking everyone’s food preferences into account each night can be hard and exhausting, to
My husband and I have been having this Blackened Chicken with Avocado and Cucumber Salsa recipe on repeat. We absolutely love it. It’s one of those dishes that’s got it all; it’s great tasting, nutritious, easy to make and very satisfying. I like to use my grill to prepare this dish, but if you feel like it’s currently
One of my favorite condiments to add to any dish is a fresh, chunky, summer-inspired salsa. I use it to top grilled chicken, pan-fried fish, a juicy stake, or even a breakfast omelette; so much flavor can be added to an otherwise simple meal in as easy as one-two-three. I always, always, always keep a container of my favorite
It’s right at the end of summer when I start craving cozy fireplaces, chunky sweaters, cooler temperatures and ALL-THINGS-PUMPKIN. Yup. I am one of those people who shamelessly loves to make pumpkin everything during the fall months…breads, cookies, muffins, soups, salads, you name it. And if I’m being super honest with you, sometimes the pumpkin
I personally know a ton of people who really like bacon, a few people who are OBSESSED with bacon, and just a handful of people who don’t like bacon (so strange, right?!) For all of us who do love bacon though, I have compiled some of the BEST Paleo Diet recipes out there! These ’57 Recipes for
I love eggs. They are a great source of protein, they’re very nourishing, versatile and straight up delicious. However, sometimes, they are the last thing I want to have for breakfast. It’s just a fact. And when that happens, I like to play with other Paleo-approved ingredients in my kitchen to come up with something epic. Because,

There is something about warm weather that makes me want to eat nothing but salads. I crave a light, refreshing, tasty salad more than I crave dark chocolate or black coffee…and that says a LOT. A nice salad hits the spot and keeps me satisfied, giving me great nutrients and macros that make for a balanced nutrition. Typically, my salads will have
A few weeks ago I was asked by the cavemandietblog.com to share my number one tip on how to get started on the Paleo Diet. They were compiling a bunch of tips from different Paleo bloggers and experts on this, to put an article together that would help those who are looking to jump on the

The bacon, the avocado, the tomatoes, the mayo…they all go so well together. It’s like one big party in your mouth! This particular BLT is very filling, so if you’re someone who eats a lot, you’ll
Who doesn’t love a classic meatball? I crave them at least once a month. Not sure if it’s because they’re so saucy, so comforting, so packed with protein, so tasty…but there is definitely something about them that draws me to them often. A classic meatball goes well with anything; parsnip mash, roasted root vegetables, sweet potatoes, kale salad, zoodles, you
I haven’t made meatloaf in a loooong time — in fact, I don’t think I’ve had a bite of meatloaf in at least a 2 years. It’s one of those things where you know its traditional recipe has gluten, so you just don’t think about it as a choice for dinner. However, for some strange reason both my husband and
Twice baked? What does that mean? Is it a lot of work? Does it take hours to do? These might be some of the questions that pop into your head a after reading today’s recipe’s name. Totally normal. I’d be thinking the same thing too! Twice baked means just that. These sweet potatoes are first baked at a certain temperature for forty minutes,
If you talk to my friends, they’ll tell you that they’ve definitely had these Crispy Purple Sweet Potatoes served to them as a side dish when they come over for dinner in my home. Yup. That’s because these are my go-to side dish in wintertime and I am not shy about serving it over and
