I am going to tell you a secret…I love peaches and nectarines but rhubarb….not so much. I don’t know anybody who gets overly excited when they hear rhubarb but they do when they hear it with the word crisp or crumble. I love a good apple crisp or a blueberry crisp but I have gotten …
Banana Coconut Raisin Muffins (AIP, Paleo)
I love muffins… they are so versatile in flavoring and they are the perfect treat when you are on the go. Whenever I am travelling I like to pack a couple muffins with me. They tie me over until I can have an actual meal and they last pretty good at room temperature. It’s been …
Crispy Oven Roasted Salmon
Hi guys, I am back at it today with another simple weeknight meal that is ready in less than 30 minutes. The AIP diet is a very nutrient dense diet and I know that when I started I struggled to eat enough fish because I live in northern Canada in a landlocked province. We all …
Italian Chicken Bake
Blogger confession…I had no idea what to call this recipe. I even reached out on social media and while people agreed that the recipe looked delicious, they couldn’t decide what to call it either. So rather than keep this recipe from you any longer I am just going to bite the bullet and call it …
Oven Roasted Chicken Wings
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 …
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 …
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 …
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 …
