3 Layer Paleo Carrot Cake

Many things in life make me happy. My husband, my family, my girlfriends, hosting parties, a good fiction book, a glass of wine after a long day, the beach, swimming in the ocean, blue skies & sunny days, 90 degree weather, the place where my husband and I got married (my aunt’s vacation farm on the Andes),

You guys. The weather is finally getting better in Boise, and I could not be happier. The sun is my life, and warm weather is what I live for. Gimmie sun and seventy plus degree weather, and I am good to go. It’s all I need. Forget about food and water. Okay, maybe just forget

Tres Leches Dessert

I have a mega treat for you today. This was one of my favorite desserts growing up in Ecuador. My mom would make a few of these for special occasions or for birthday parties, and I, being the food-lover that I am, would polish off whatever cake leftovers there were after the party was over.

Coconut Dream Bars

These Coconut Dream Bars are delicious. Honestly, they are probably one of my favorite Paleo (and vegan) desserts ever. What I love about these little Coconut Dream Bars is that they are not too sweet and they don’t feel like a heavy dessert. The ingredients compliment each other well, allowing every bite to be full of flavor, yet not

Mixed Berry Jam

I’ve been using this Mixed Berry Jam recipe almost every day this last week, spreading it on top of Paleo waffles, breads and banana NiceCreams (or as I like to call them, Healthy Bowls). This temporary habit of mine has been wonderfully delicious. I made this paleo jam recipe thinking of Valentine’s Day, as it’s color, taste and texture will add

Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes

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

Lemon Banana Paleo Bread

I’ve been on a huge bread-making streak. My last three posts have been about bread. Can you tell I love bread? I do. Guilty as charged. It’s my weakness…I could eat loaf after loaf after loaf. 😉 I am not sure what’s causing my baking-drive lately. It might be the colder weather, the need of

Paleo Berries ‘n’ Cream Ice-Cream

Let me start by saying that typically, ice-cream is not allowed on the Paleo Diet. As its name suggests, it has “cream”, and cream is dairy. Dairy is not Paleo, therefore bye-bye ice-cream for all of us. Sad day. Luckily, there are some wonderful Paleo approved ingredients out there than can help us in the

Tropical Smoothie

Today is day two of my smoothie craze. I woke up, had some tea and got my fruits ready to be “smoothied”. There’s nothing like having fresh, juicy and flavorful fruits first thing in the morning. It’s refreshing, soothing and sort of exciting. It’s exciting because not only do fruits taste incredible, but they also

Today’s Paleo Thanksgiving Recipe is the bright and very sweet, Cranberry Sauce! This is one of my Thanksgiving favorites by far! I love how amazing it tastes and the few ingredients it calls for.
