Awhile ago I posted a recipe for my oven roasted plantains and you guys really enjoyed that recipe because it was so simple and quick. So I thought I would share another easy recipe that is in rotation at our house a few times a month- oven roasted chicken wings. The best part is that …
Cinnamon Coconut Raisin Cookies
This is the perfect weekday cookie…if there is such a thing. These remind me of an oatmeal raisin cookie sans oatmeal of course. They are crunchy but chewy and are flavored with cinnamon, coconut and raisins. I feel like these cookies are really easy to throw together and would be perfect for a weekday treat. …
Tropical Winter Smoothie (AIP, Paleo)
So it is still Winter…I mean spring is coming in some parts of the world but it’s not here yet where I am. Not even a little bit. If I am being realistic I know that we can get snow up until the end of April so I still have two months or so until …
Scalloped Sweet Potato & Ham Casserole
I really miss creamy dishes. Even though I know my body and dairy are no longer BFF’s, I still long to taste those creamy sauces that go with all the best casseroles. I also miss potatoes, and the closest thing to potatoes are the white sweet potatoes as they have a milder, less sweet flavor …
Ham & Sweet Potato Soup
I have another recipe for you guys today that uses up left overs! This recipe in particular uses up left over ham, but you could also substitute turkey or chicken as well. This is a hearty soup that is good for you and I like having it in my freezer so I can pull it …
Creamy Chicken Bake
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 …
Chocolate Peppermint Coconut Truffles (AIP, Paleo)
I can’t believe that Christmas is already over! The holiday season always seems to come and go so quickly and every year I try to savor these moments a little more. It’s such a magical time of year and I love that everyone can relax for a few days and spend time with their loved …
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 …
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 …
