Avocado, Spinach, and Chèvre Scramble
I have no idea how this post got lost in the mix, but I snapped these photos while we lived in Hawaii last year and completely forgot to share the recipe! Just looking at the photos brings back so memories and makes me miss all of the dear friends we met while we were … Read more
Guest Post: Paleo Vanilla Chai Pancakes
With my new cookbook well under way and keeping me very busy, I’ve lined up some fellow bloggers to do guest posts for me two Saturdays a month. My autoimmune condition is heavily fueled by stress, so in an effort to stay healthy, these friends will help relieve some of the stress and keep recipes still coming … Read more
Pumpkin Spice Cookies with Vanilla Cinnamon Icing
I am finally getting around to giving you the recipe for the sweet little Pumpkin Spice Cookies I teased you with on Facebook a week ago. My intention was to post it right after we arrived in Kona, but life has been so hectic! I feel like I’ve been in an out of grocery … Read more
Real-Deal Chocolate Chip Cookies
If you frequently succumb to looking at food-porn (hate that name), on sites like Pinterest, ChowStalker, or FoodGawker, then you know that a simple image can have you salivating and daydreaming about the dish in an instant. Sadly a lot of grain-free foods are deceiving to the eye. They can look like the real thing … Read more
Lemon Parsley Grilled Zucchini
It was over 104 degrees here today, so we opted for grilling instead of doing anything in the kitchen. I marinated chicken breasts and legs with olive oil and a 1/4 cup of my Pesto Sauce, and threw this lemon and parsley marinated zucchini on the grill once the chicken was done. The lemon and parsley … Read more
Zucchini Noodles
There’s plenty of silly names for them: zoodles, zusketti, zuttuccine. Strangely, we call zucchini “zukes” (and and cucumbers “cukes”) around this house. Because the original is just too long to say right? Call them what you wish, but Zucchini noodles are kind of like the new spaghetti squash. Or at least they are during the … Read more

Watermelon Salad with Arugula, Goat Cheese, and Candied Walnuts
I’m hosting this month’s Go Ahead Honey, It’s Gluten Free event and the theme is Seasonal Salads. After making my Watermelon Mint Lemonade last week, I knew I had to transform the lovely flavors of the juice into a salad. Watermelon is in abundance here so it was the perfect recipe to use as my … Read more
Berry Tart with Dairy-Free Vanilla Bean Custard
Here is festive bit of eye candy for you. And, of course, it tastes good too! I almost didn’t want to cut into it so to preserve the design. Vibrant berries are in abundance at our farmer’s markets and I just couldn’t resist buying vats of them and adding them to all of the dishes … Read more
