A just because cake….yep this is a just because cake. I created this because I felt like there wasn’t an AIP vanilla cake recipe out there that I liked. It took some playing around but I think I am finally happy enough with the recipe to share it with you all. I think I may …
Lemon Coconut Cake with Lemon Glaze
Happy almost Easter and Happy Spring! This week I am headed to Nashville for Spring Break to visit my sister so I have been busy packing and prepping for my upcoming trip. Since I will be in Nashville for Easter I am not sure what I will be eating for Easter dinner yet but I …
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 …
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 …
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 …

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 …
Chocolate Banana Smoothie
I truly believe you can never have too many smoothie recipes in your arsenal. I have my favourites of course but every now and again it’s nice to switch it up and try something different. When The Paleo Mom aka Dr. Sarah Ballantyne partnered up with Vital Proteins to make an AIP friendly Collagen Veggie …
Mediterranean Pasta
Let me start off by saying that pasta and pizza are probably the foods I miss the most. Perhaps I was Italian in another life. Obviously there are AIP versions of both of these dishes but still I miss the originals from time to time. After travelling to Italy on my honeymoon I was inspired …
My AIP Wedding
In this post I am going to be sharing with you how I kept my elopement AIP friendly. Just a pre-warning it’s going to be a long one! I got married on March 13th, 2017 in Sechelt, British Columbia, Canada. The planning of even a small wedding can be stressful. I knew that it wasn’t …
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 …
