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 …
Chocolate Pomegranate Bites
Happy February! This post was inspired by Valentine’s Day and my love of chocolate. I know most people either love Valentine’s Day or they hate it. I personally like the reminder to tell my loved ones how much they mean to me. That being said, even if you not a fan of Valentine’s Day you are …
AIP Breakfast Casserole
I seem to be on a bit of a breakfast kick lately. First pancakes, now a breakfast casserole! You may have heard me tell the story about how when I first started my autoimmune protocol journey I was eating a lot of meat for breakfast. Stews, steak, stoups, sausage patties etc. Sometimes I would miss …
AIP Pancakes
Self-care/love can sometimes mean you just want to indulge and eat some AIP Pancakes & syrup. When you are following the autoimmune protocol, making pancakes can be a little trickier. Self-care and self-love are part of the healing journey. Make time for it…even if it’s mid-week! Don’t you always feel somewhat accomplished when you have …
Review & Interview: The AIP Italian Cookbook by Ambra Torelli
Hello lovely readers! I have a special treat for you today. I am reviewing The AIP Italian Cookbook by the lovely and talented Ambra Torelli of Littlebitesofbeauty. Oh and she was kind enough to let me interview her about her new book and share it with you guys! First off I want to tell you …
AIP Holiday Menu
Christmas is almost upon us…I think it’s less than 5 sleeps! I have my in-laws staying with me and they will be cooking a traditional Czech dinner on Christmas Eve and I will be doing the dinner for Christmas day. Now many of these recipes are from my favourite AIP cook books, so I won’t …
Green Beauty Review: FitGlow Beauty
Wow, where has November gone? I can’t believe it’s almost over. This week I wanted to switch things up and do a lifestyle post. Following the autoimmune protocol includes more than just food choices. I have spoken about this before, but I felt it was important to mention again. What you put on your skin …
Roast Chicken Soup
You know what time of year it is??? It’s the season for soups! Autumn is by far my favourite season and where I live it is unfortunately a short one. So I extend my season of soups into Winter as well. I can’t believe it is the end of September already. Next week I will …
Chicken Meatballs
This recipe is one I like to make when I have to travel. It is quick and easy to make, a good source of protein, and travels well, provided you can keep them in a cooler. They also freeze well and make a great appetizer or snack. You could use ground turkey instead of ground …
Blueberry Coconut Milk Popsicles
I can’t believe I am already saying this but…summer is almost over. I enjoyed these popsicles all summer long and made a new batch almost every week! I don’t generally eat popsicles in the cooler months so I am going to make one last batch of these this weekend before I tuck this recipe away …
AIP Pantry
Once a year I attempt to re-organize my pantry. Not only to make it look better but also to make it more functional. I am a grade one teacher so I usually do this in the summers when I am not working. I live with my fiancé and he does not follow the autoimmune protocol. …
Wonton Soup
I know it may seem like a weird time to be making soup but sometimes these cravings come out of nowhere right? I was just thinking the other day that I miss wonton soup. In my SAD days (Standard American Diet) I would have considered this soup to be quite healthy. Obviously from an AIP …
