I am always looking for quick weeknight meals that I can throw together with minimal effort, like this AIP Creamy Chicken Bake. I have no problem cooking a multi step recipe on the weekend, in fact I really enjoy it. That being said, during the week I do not have the time or energy to …
AIP Birthday Menu 2017
Last month I celebrated my 29th Birthday. It was also my third birthday while following the autoimmune protocol. Of course I have reintroduced certain foods and can enjoy the odd non-paleo/aip treat but for the most part I still stick to an AIP outline because my body feels best when I do. So I …
Holiday Bars (AIP, Paleo)
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas… everywhere you look! I am so excited to start off December with my first holiday recipe! I use to make a version of these holiday bars in my pre-AIP days and I absolutely loved them. I wanted to try and create something similar and so this recipe …
Herb Roasted Duck
It is officially the holiday season and I couldn’t be more excited. Outside it looks like a winter wonderland and I am patiently waiting for a free weekend so that I can get going on my Christmas baking! When I think of a holiday meal my mind instinctively goes to turkey but this year I …
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 …
Double Hot Chocolate (AIP, Paleo)
As most of you know, I am a lover of all things chocolate. Sometimes you can feel left out this time of year with all those fancy holiday drinks being advertised. So I wanted to create a hot chocolate with some extra chocolate flavor that tasted just as good as it looks. In addition to …
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 …

Tuna Noodle Casserole (AIP, Paleo)
I have always been a fan of comfort food, and Tuna Noodle Casserole is one of my favorite cozy meals. I think that most people are casserole lovers, and when the days get shorter and the weather gets colder- these are the types of dishes I crave. Growing up this was not a dish my …
Pumpkin Spice Raisin Muffins (AIP, Paleo)
I am truly enjoying this season, especially with these yummy Pumpkin Spice Raisin Muffins! I know not everyone is a fan but I love pumpkin and the combination of the warm spices really make me love Autumn even more. Autumn is my favorite season even though it is short lived in Northern Canada. I would …
Thanksgiving Menu 2017
Happy Thanksgiving to all of my fellow Canadians! I absolutely love this time of year and I welcome any excuse to get together with my family and friends and share good food. We usually have Thanksgiving with either my parents or my husbands parents. Last year we spent Thanksgiving with my husbands parents so this …
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 …
