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 …

Easy AIP Brownies
I don’t know about you but I am a lover of AIP brownies. I always choose chocolate over vanilla no matter what the circumstance is. My mom is a really good cook but she is an even better baker (including brownies). She baked something for our lunches every week growing up. Old habits die hard …
