Corned Beef and Cabbage with Parsnip Turnip Purée
My apologies for getting this up after Saint Patrick’s Day! As I mentioned on Facebook, we took a last minute trip down to Los Angeles to see family and friends and attend a conference. I know it doesn’t bring as much excitement when it’s not presented with leprechauns, shamrocks, and green cookies; but this … Read more
Cinnamon ‘Oat’meal Raisin Cookies: St. Patrick’s Day Style
I remember pulling a batch of my rosemary raisin crackers out of the oven about 4 years ago and watching as they changed from brown to a bright shamrock green color. I quickly ran through every ingredient in my head and couldn’t possibly think of why this happened this particular time when I had … Read more
Corned Beef Brisket: Brine (Nitrate-Free)
Update from US Wellness Meats: “All the xylitol has been removed from the corned beef brisket and flatiron. The natural spices are clove, cinnamon, and allspice.” I had originally planned on using a pre-brined brisket for this recipe so my timing would have been precise and allowed enough time for you to purchase your … Read more
My Green Smoothie
Everyone has their own go-to green smoothie these days, but in case you are lacking in creativity or just need a change from your usual- here is my green smoothie. Mine is not the beautiful green hue that you see in so many because Asher refuses to drink it if it’s green, so I … Read more
Grain-Free Sugar Cookies (Paleo and SCD)
My birthday falls just 3 days apart from Valentine’s Day, so I’ve told Ryan over the last 11 years to not stress about V-day and just focus on my birthday.

Leftover Roast Chicken Soup with Roasted Vegetables
Roast chicken is an almost effortless dish to prepare and always satisfies a hungry crowd. I don’t have a recipe up on my site for some reason (we’ll have to fix that down the road!) but I like to roast mine perched atop a bed of root vegetables in a little white wine and … Read more
Crepes…or tortillas…or lasagna noodles (grain-free, paleo)
The most frequent question I get from readers when they view my original grain-free tortilla recipe, is “what can I do with all of the leftover egg yolks?” First off, I frequently use the organic free-range egg whites in the carton just for convenience sake, but a handful of yolk recipes immediately come to … Read more
Italian Baked Eggs (Oeufs En Cocotte)
As you know, I have been attempting a Whole30 challenge for the past few weeks. I say “attempting” because it hasn’t been a perfect journey. I’ve been very transparent on Facebook and let you know when I’ve messed up and eaten things I wasn’t supposed to. Technically, you’re supposed to start your 30 days over … Read more
Guest Post : Pumpkin Bread (paleo, grain-free, gluten-free)
