My junior year of college I went through a very strange lemon poppyseed muffin phase. My university mainly sold these muffins in the libraries on campus. It got so bad I would literally just pop into one of the libraries between classes to see if they had the muffins. For some reason the lemon poppyseed…

Plaid & Paleo Grill Roundup
Happy Memorial Day! I hope everyone is having an amazing day. I’m in Greece today. While I may not be in America, I will be enjoying the day in my typical fashion. Laying out on the beach or enjoying some water sports! When I was little, we attended all sorts of small town festivities because…
35 Summer Autoimmune Paleo Recipes
After attending autoimmune sessions at Paleo FX, it really got me thinking about the autoimmune protocol. Autoimmune diseases and diagnosis are growing at a semi-alarming rate. While the stats can be scary, it is so amazing to read people’s stories of how they have healed themselves with eating real food. I believe in the power…
Crockpot Balsamic Beef
It’s Meaty Monday! I know Mondays can be a drag since the weekend is over, but I hope Meaty Mondays make them a little better. I’ve been loving this series because I do cook a lot of meat dishes. I’m trying to incorporate more simple meals back into my blog. When I first started blogging,…
N’Oatmeal Cookie Shake
When I was little I hated oatmeal. The gooey nondescript texture paired with the strange light brown color never appealed to me. While I wasn’t chowing down on liquid oatmeal, I did love oatmeal raisin cookies. There were always plenty of oatmeal cookies left on any cookie tray because once one kid figured out they…
Stuffed Pepper Casserole
So I teased this recipe last Monday on my Instagram for Cinco de Mayo. I was super excited when people asked for the recipe! I would have posted it sooner, but I had some things planned for Mother’s Day. Anyways now it is up! This stuffed pepper casserole is super easy to make, and it…
Strawberry Basil Cupcakes
I’m off! I leave for Europe this evening. I’m freaking out a little but I am so excited to start this adventure. Since I won’t be celebrating Mother’s Day with my mom, I wanted to make her something before I left. She requested strawberry cupcakes. The thought of making strawberry cupcakes was a little daunting…
Three 15-Minute Lunches
I leave for Europe tomorrow! I might be freaking out a little, but in a good way I think. Today I’m sharing three 15-minute lunches over on The Paleo Mom. Whether you are a stay-at-home mom with kids at school or live alone, it is always nice to know you can have an easy home…
Rose Sugar Scrub
It’s down to the wire. I leave for Europe in two days! I can’t believe it is finally here. I’ve been planning this trip for almost a year. I had almost all my outfits picked out when I checked the weather in Europe for probably the 50th time. Unfortunately it wasn’t good news. London, Paris…
Tangy Tomato Glazed Meatloaf
Five years ago if you told me I would be cooking meatloaf, I would have laughed. Meatloaf was one of those strange foods from my childhood that I never understood. Eating meat in the shape of bread never appealed to me. Last year I made my very first meatloaf, and it was kind of a…
Four Things
I’m currently suffering from a severe allergy attack. I’m going to call it that because I refuse to be sick. I mentioned on Instagram I was feeling under the weather. The overwhelming response was copious amounts of bone broth. Here is where I fail as a paleo person. I’ve never made bone broth. I know…
Paleo-on-the-Go Review
I had the pleasure of meeting Dave and Karen from Paleo-on-the-Go at Paleo FX. They are so nice and not to mention run an amazing service. When I was at my old job, this was a typical day for me. Wake up a 7:15am. Get ready and make breakfast. Out the door by 7:45. Arrive…
