Holiday Gift Guide 2020
Photo by The Restaurant Project ® Happy Holidays and welcome to a pretty damn rad gift guide. I had a great time pulling this together for you. My goal is to share healthy, fun, and unique gift ideas because right about now, we need all three of those things. Let’s dive right in! Give the…
Fish Tacos with Roasted Pineapple (Paleo)
Photograph courtesy of Brenda Score of A Farm Girl’s Dabbles I hope this post finds you healthy and well. How goes the quarantine cooking? We’re several weeks in now, so I suspect that the novelty of staying in every night has worn off. I suspect also – from what I’m reading on Instagram and Facebook –…
Salmon Cakes with Rutabaga Chips (Paleo/AIP/Whole30)
How are you? I don’t normally start a blog post that way, but these are strange times indeed. Here in Minnesota, our governor has just ordered stay-at-home to give our healthcare system a chance to gear up for Covid-19 hospitalizations. As of this writing, I’ve already been distancing myself for two weeks (so far, so healthy)…
Stocking Up On Paleo Essentials (Paleo, AIP, Whole30)
If you’re planning ahead and anticipating the possibility of spending several days at home due to COVID-19, but can’t (or don’t want to) stock up on beans and rice, frozen pizzas, and chips/crackers to see you through, I’ve put together a list of paleo/real food essentials for you to consider. I’m not adding photos (other than…
Chicken Sheet Pan with Vegetables & Balsamic Glaze (Paleo, AIP, Whole30) and Boosting Immunity
I hope this blog post looks incredibly dated in a short period of time. In the face of COVID-19 making itself known in the US and around the world, I wanted to share my tips for staying healthy during cold/flu season. It likely won’t surprise you that I put my focus on nutrient density. But what does that mean?…
Mint Chocolate Chip Nice Cream (Paleo, AIP, Whole30, Vegan)
It’s a balmy 50°F outside right now which is totally ice cream weather in Minnesota. I just returned from a long walk in the sun and there were many, many people walking and running in shorts and tank tops. We are insane, in the best possible way. (I was jacket-less although I did wear sleeves and yoga…
Spicy Roasted Cauliflower Tacos with Cashew Crema (Paleo, Vegan) from The 30-Minute Paleo Cookbook
Too busy to cook dinner most nights of the week? Not with my new cookbook, which I am SO excited to share with you! Please welcome The 30-Minute Paleo Cookbook to the world of nutrient-dense cookbooks. She’s my third baby (after my son Nathan and my other book baby, Twin Cities Chef’s Table) and she’s due…
Swedish Meatballs (Paleo, Primal, AIP, Whole30)
I had such terrific Swedish Meatballs last week (at Travail’s pop-up Uffda, lasting just a few more weeks, you should go!) that I was inspired to revisit this recipe, which I first published several years ago. I decided to update the meatballs to be Paleo, AIP, and Whole30-compliant so everyone can enjoy them! It was a verrrrry…
Orange Beef & Broccoli (Paleo/AIP/Whole30)
Happy New Year! Let me reintroduce you to vegetables. 😂 In all seriousness, I so hope that you enjoyed your holiday. Every part of it, including all of the non-vegetable treats. I certainly did! My little sister Etta got married in Colorado on December 14 and that kicked off a solid three weeks of periodic…
