Sweet Potato Pear Soup | Crowd-Pleasing Recipe

I’ve been making this stupid simple soup for over ten years (before ‘paleo’ entered anyone’s lexicon), but it had fallen out of my regular routine until I was cold last week and wanted something warm to bring for an engagement party potluck. This is the analog recipe: fatfree.com/recipes/fruit-soups/sweet-potato-pear-soup (how embarrassing) SWEET POTATO PEAR SOUP 1/2 onion, diced…

Eat ALL THE (chickpea) PASTA!

This baby, found on the Banza website, is basically me. For as long as I’ve been able to eat it, I’ve LOVED pasta. After Paleo-ing for many many years, I don’t eat much pasta (but if it’s homemade, OH PLEASE I’M EATING ALLLLL OF IT), so I was pretty thrilled to find a pasta with…

How 100 Calories Helped Me Do Things I Love: GoMacro

Seriously, these 100-cal GoMacro bars are the perfect bite to pop between football games to stay energized without feeling full. Good bars are hard to find, which is why I generally don’t rely on them for snacks. But they’re so convenient! So when GoMacro offered to send me some 100-calorie samples, how could I say no?…

holy grail protein chocolate chip cookies

Just. Look. At. These. Cookies. Can you tell they’re paleo(ish)? Maybe. Can you tell they have whey protein powder in them? NOPE! Honestly, I don’t know how I stumbled upon making these crumbly, crunchy, chewy, paleo-ish chocolate chip cookies. I just got re-inspired after I tried a terrible commercially-produced protein-powder cookie and thought I have…

PaleoTrim Supp + Discount Code

I heard about a new Paleo supp called PaleoTrim and had to try it. As many of you Paleos know, diehards don’t consider supplements paleo, but nobody every accused me of being a diehard (see: booze, cheese, and paleo-ish chocolate chip cookies) so I’m excited to talk about PaleoTrim. It’s kind of like an energizing multivitamin. PaleoTrim…

Butternut Squash Lasagna Cups

I finally made a recipe I’d been wanting to make for awhile: butternut squash lasagna cups, from Pinterest. I like lasagna, but I don’t love it like I love pizza. But it has a lot of the same elements, so you’d think I’d love it just as much … anyway, I haven’t spent much time…

Surprising Success: Seafood Sausages

While searching foodily.com for a recipe for shrimp and scallops, I stumbled upon this: Seafood Sausage with Miso Mustard Recipe Although it is paleo, I wasn’t looking for a paleo recipe, but it intrigued me. So I made it. Basically you food-processor a bunch of seafood, roll it into cabbage (the hardest part, and I…

“I eat better than you.”

Awesome conversation overheard today after yoga: Woman 1: “You have the most amazing back, what do you do?” Amazing Back Woman: “This [yoga] and my diet.” Woman 1: “What? I guarantee I eat better than you.” Amazing Back Woman: “Nope, it’s all in the diet.” Woman 1: “I eat better than you. You eat meat.”…
