Cauliflower-Leek Soup with Crispy Shrimp (AIP, Paleo)

Around five years ago, I somehow fell into the company of a group of incredible women who were about to usher me through a massive life change. I didn’t know it, and they didn’t know it, but in retrospect I can see that the way we became fast friends was a rare and special thing,…

It’s a weekend for griling, of course – I’m planning a little grilled tasty every day.
