Happy Sunday Friends! It is finally March and the sun is staying out longer and I am loving it! That being said, it has been exceptionally cold this year- the coldest winter we have had in 40 years apparently. So naturally, I am perpetually cold and my skin is as dry as the desert but… …
Vanilla Cake (AIP, Paleo)
A just because cake….yep this is a just because cake. I created this because I felt like there wasn’t an AIP vanilla cake recipe out there that I liked. It took some playing around but I think I am finally happy enough with the recipe to share it with you all. I think I may …
Avocado Taco Bowls (AIP, Paleo)
Happy September! This is the craziest time of year for me and I feel like I have been neglecting the blog but I have a fabulous new recipe for all of you Taco Tuesday lovers out there. I am all about celebrating the small things! These are so delicious and the filling for the avocado …
Lemon Coconut Cake with Lemon Glaze
Happy almost Easter and Happy Spring! This week I am headed to Nashville for Spring Break to visit my sister so I have been busy packing and prepping for my upcoming trip. Since I will be in Nashville for Easter I am not sure what I will be eating for Easter dinner yet but I …
Oven-Roasted Plantains
Life can be busy… so busy that basic things like cooking can fall by the way side. Many people assume that because you follow a healing diet such as the Autoimmune Protocol, then you must spend all of your time in the kitchen. There is some truth to that statement but I am always looking …
Chocolate Caramels (AIP, Paleo)
These Chocolate caramels are the real deal you guys! Nobody will be able to tell that they are dairy or chocolate free. I should caution that these are very sweet and should be eaten in moderation but if you can’t indulge in a little chocolate at Christmas time then when can you? I had to …
Pumpkin Hamburger Soup
I love Autumn and everything associated with it: sweaters, boots, blanket scarves, and of course pumpkin. When I was a kid my mom always made a Hamburger Soup. It consisted of ground beef, tomatoes, corn, and macaroni noodles along with some Italian spices. It was always one of my favourite dishes but now that I …
Hearty Lamb Noodle Soup
You know when I was thinking of a title for this recipe I kept hearing “chicken noodle soup” every time I said “lamb noodle soup” so it is my hope that by adding the word Hearty to the title… you will be able to distinguish between the two as this is not a traditional chicken …
Deconstructed Cabbage Rolls (AIP, Paleo)
Cabbage rolls- the ultimate comfort food but they also take forever to make from scratch. Let’s face it- in today’s fast paced world there just isn’t a lot of extra time to spend in the kitchen. The only problem is that when you are following a healing diet such as the autoimmune protocol…you need to …
AIP Teriyaki Sauce
I don’t know about you but one of the things I miss the most while following the AIP is sauces…especially AIP Teriyaki Sauce. I think it is mostly due to the fact that I can’t just go buy a sauce at the store or have a ready made jar in the fridge. This AIP Teriyaki …
“Chocolate” Banana Bread (AIP, Paleo)
I know you guys really enjoyed my Chocolate zucchini muffins awhile back and I did too. This past weekend I was craving some banana bread but everything is better with chocolate or carob if you are following the AIP like me. So I thought I would incorporate some more “chocolate” into a recipe. You can …
Eating AIP in Italy & Travel Tips
I know this post has literally taken me ages to get up considering I went to Italy in April and it is now the end of July, but it’s finally here! I wanted to start off by saying that for a long time I was worried about travelling while following the autoimmune protocol. During the …
