Congee (Gluten-Free)

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Dec 7, 2019 at 3:21pm

It’s a bit hard to see in the photo, but underneath the greens, sticky pork, poached egg, crispity ginger and garlic bits, and drizzle of tamari is…congee, or rice porridge. At it’s most basic, congee is rice cooked for a long time in quite a lot of liquid, until the rice breaks down into a…

Sunday Bolognese (Primal, Gluten-Free)

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Nov 15, 2019 at 4:45pm

I am FINALLY posting my most-teased recipe of all time. I’ve been posting #sundaybolo posts on Instagram stories for years and while I’ve shared the recipe with friends and family, I’ve never shared it here. Before I dive in to the recipe, let me take a step back and say hello! How are you? I haven’t blogged…

Chocolate Avocado Pudding (Paleo, Primal, AIP, Vegan)

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Aug 30, 2019 at 4:48pm

As we head into the holiday weekend, I wanted to remind you of this dead simple, utterly spoon-licking-worthy, no-cook chocolate pudding. You can’t mess it up. And you can’t not eat it, either, you should know that in case you make a giant batch and you’re the only one home. From the first time I posted…

Crispy Chicken Salad with Peaches, Corn & Green Beans (Paleo, Primal) and Gascony, France

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Aug 10, 2019 at 2:27pm

Oh my stars I am going to miss summer produce. That’s a little trick that I employ, by the way, to keep myself from taking even one bite of this gloriousness for granted – I remind myself that these treasures of perfect corn, peaches, and green beans are temporary delights. It’s not a sad reminder. In fact,…

Slow-Cooked Halibut with Warm & Cold Salad (Paleo, AIP/Whole30-Adaptable) and Ostfriesland

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Aug 6, 2019 at 5:28pm

I mention my Grandma and Grandpa Meyer quite a lot here on the blog. My memories of both are utterly tied up in my love of food and cooking, as well as for big family gatherings. Their home in Clara City, Minnesota, was a fun, delicious, and steady anchor in a sometimes tumultuous childhood, and…

Flavorbomb Chicken Breasts (Paleo/AIP/Whole30)

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Jul 11, 2019 at 8:28pm

I work with many women who can not bear to eat another boneless, skinless chicken breast. They burned out on them, probably as 20-something, health-conscious women eating chicken breasts as a steady source of lean protein. Because they ARE a great source of lean protein. And they’re fast to cook and are incredibly versatile. But I…

Coffee-Rubbed Steak (Paleo/Whole30)

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Jul 6, 2019 at 3:18pm

How do you throw together last minute meals? (And why are they always so good? I think it’s because of the adventure of winging it – a little risk is super delicious, in life and food.) I kayaked on Lake Harriet a couple of weeks ago with my friend Eric Tollefson and while we knew…

Summer Barbecue Menus (Paleo/AIP)

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Jun 28, 2019 at 3:07pm

Hellooooo July 4th Partiers! Yeah, I’m even talking to you AIPers and those on an elimination diet. I would argue that if you’re 1) working on your health, 2) trying to uncover food sensitivities, 3) addressing an autoimmune disease, or 4) trying to lose weight, it’s MORE important than ever to entertain and socialize. Deciding…

Pork, Apple & Chard Meatballs (Paleo/AIP/Whole30)

Posted by Stephanie Meyer on Jun 20, 2019 at 3:34pm

So many meatballs, so little time. That could be the tagline for this blog. 😂 The reason I sing their praises often: meatballs are awesome. Straight off the pan, submerged in sauce or gravy, nestled into noodles (even the grain-free types), swiped through a snappy condiment, anchoring a bowl of soup, or rolled up in…
