Pumpkin Season has officially started! Well maybe not officially but I have been working on pumpkin recipes for the past few weeks and I am not complaining about it! I love Autumn and I love pumpkins so naturally I enjoy creating recipes with pumpkin. I actually consider it self-care. If anyone wants to hire me …
Eating AIP in London & France
So you are following the Autoimmune Protocol and you want to travel abroad. Can it be done? Yes! Is it always easy? No…but remember it can be done. 2017 has been a big year of travel for me. I went to Italy in April and to London, Paris, and the French Riviera in August. I …
Lemon Zucchini Bread (AIP, Paleo)
It’s zucchini season and I love using the zucchinis from my own garden in this Paleo AIP Lemon Zucchini Bread. I thought this recipe would be perfect for this time of year, just as Summer is winding down and Autumn is about to begin. I also wanted to use lemons in this recipe because on …
Guest Post: Love Yourself Into Feeling Your Best
Self-Love and self-care seem to be buzz words right now and for good reason. On a healing journey, self-love and self-care are important pieces to the puzzle in order for full healing to take place. Like exercise and stress management, self-love is another area that I need to work on. Since I myself am not …
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 …
AIP Pesto Sauce
This year my husband and I decided to try our hand at gardening. Surprisingly it has gone quite well. We have a mini greenhouse and a variety of planters on our deck. Currently we have kale, mixed greens, romaine, collard greens, cucumbers, zucchini, broccoli, and a variety of herbs. It was a slow start but …
My Favorite AIP Batch Cooking Recipes (August 2017)
If you are new to the autoimmune protocol then you may be wondering what batch cooking is and why I am writing about it. On the other hand if you have been in the AIP community for awhile then you have probably heard the term “Batch Cooking” numerous times. Batch cooking is simply making your …
“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 …
Prosciutto & Basil Linguine Alfredo
“OMG there is no way that this Prosciutto and Basil Linguine Alfredo pasta is AIP friendly!” That’s what you are going to be saying once you try this recipe. I started my AIP journey just over three years ago and this is literally the best thing I have eaten so far. I suppose that comes …
Shrimp Cauli-Fried Rice
This is my first week of summer vacation and let me just say that I needed this break so badly. The end of the school year brings tons of extra work, high stress and unfortunately less than 8 hours of sleep. On top of that I was experiencing some allergy symptoms- itchy throat and runny …
Chocolate Zucchini Muffins (AIP, Paleo)
I have been missing chocolate zucchini cake ever since I started the Autoimmune Protocol. So I have made it my mission to create an AIP friendly version. Today is finally the day! I am pretty pleased with how this recipe has turned out. I decided to make these into muffins so I could eat them …
AIP Creamy Beef & Cauli Rice Casserole
If you’re in need of a quick, easy, and hot weeknight meal, my AIP Creamy Beef & Cauli Rice Casserole has got your back! I thought it was about time for a new recipe but to be honest I have been so busy with the end of the school year nearing (life of a teacher) …
