Cauliflower rice is so versatile. There's an endless combination of things you can do to it and serve it with. Being that is still January of the new year and a lot of readers are newly interested in paleo, I thought it was important to post a recipe for a paleo staple: Basic Cauliflower Rice. If you're new to paleo, … [Read more...]

Blackened Seasoning Blend
One of the best ways to eat healthy and stick with it is to add spices and flavors to your food. Without spice, flavor, and variety, you will surely become bored and start craving other foods... and probably less healthy ones. I like this Blackened Seasoning Blend because it's so easy, so fast, makes no mess, and really adds flavor to protein. Plain grilled chicken, salmon, beef, or shrimp can easily get boring fast. And if you've gone to a … [Read more...]

Butternut Squash Soup with Apple and Carrot
With cold weather sweeping across the country, it just felt like soup time. I had the Sesame Beef side dishes ready to post, but I'm going to save those for later. I'm sure you'd rather have soup first! The news broadcasts and talk show hosts are having a field day talking about the weather. I am particularly enjoying Jimmy … [Read more...]

The idea to make this dish literally came to me while I was lying in bed, trying to fall asleep. I'd been … [Read more...]
Make Your Own Almond Milk
Almond milk is a great paleo substitute for cow's milk. I find I use it mostly in smoothies, sauces, purees, and coffee or tea. It's not nearly as complicated as you might think. I bet you can even make it right now with all of the tools you have in your kitchen. All you need is water, almonds, a blender, a large bowl and a … [Read more...]
Grilled Chicken Wraps with Quick Pickled Veg
I had a reader tell me the other day that she used to be paleo but gave it up because she felt like she was eating the same few meals over and over. Getting really bored of just bison, avocado, broccoli, and sweet potatoes, she stopped eating paleo despite getting results she wanted from the whole, clean foods way of eating. Here is the great news: you don't have to eat the same four things over and over to eat paleo! There's so many … [Read more...]
