Easy Gluten-Free Pizza for Indoor or Outdoor Ovens
We are a thin crust pizza family which has made it pretty easy for me to keep everyone happy with gluten-free pizzas. Especially since 1) I spent this fall and winter playing with a fast, fool-proof pizza crust, and 2) we got a small pizza oven in anticipation of a deck expansion and hard-wired propane…
Blueberry Kuchen – Kingsfield Market Berry Bake-Off Critics’ Choice Winner!
I’m pulling this recipe up from the archives because it’s so incredibly easy and delicious. I’ve made it multiple times over the last 11 years (11 years!) and no matter who I serve it to, they ask for the recipe. This past week, I made it using Bob’s Red Mill 1-to-1 all-purpose, gluten-free flour. I…
Beef Stew for Zoë
Last spring and fall I had the honor of being a part of the filming of my dear friend Zoë Francois’ baking show, Zoë Bakes, which just debuted on the brand new Magnolia Network on Discovery Plus! At the time, I was still living upstairs in the ballroom apartment (aka The Treehouse) of Zoë and her husband Graham’s beautiful home. (Zoë and…
Tired of Being Hungry All the Time?
I personally hate being hungry all the time. I find it tiring and annoying. Appetite is a tricky beast, with many inputs, from setting to mood to hormones to stress to the actual food itself. There’s no question that food has been an easy comfort since the pandemic began, but now that the stress is…

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…
