This is the best cabbage soup ever. Not that I’ve had a lot of cabbage soup. But it is LEGIT!! It has lots of dairy, so if you are a non-dairy Paleo, you can stop reading. As usual, I started somewhere with someone else’s recipe and modified it like crazy for what I have in…

Tamale Tamale Tamale
I tweeted a lot about these babies, and external sources have confirmed: TAMALES ARE AWESOME!! Particularly these tamales. That I made. These are my 3 flavors. I was inspired to make tamales thanks to a new ridiculously awesome Austin blog called HilahCooking.com. Check it out. These are the video instructions I followed (I used vegetable…
Austin: Free 24 Diner Food!
325,600 eggs were harmed in the making of a year of 24 Diner. I know I write about 24 Diner a lot, but they have local food and free-range meat and delicious burgers and cool people and are open 24 hours a day and really, what’s not to love? Free is also something you should…
PetsGiving
Petsgiving. Pets Giving. Pets … oh, you know. My lovable dog Denali is a rescue, so when I heard that Nulo is being thankful and donating money to shelter pets WHILE giving customers a discount, I had to place an order. And share with you, natch. Between now and Thanksgiving Day (Nov 25), for every…
ACL: Eating Guide
Eating with me is a challenge, I will freely admit. I want free-range happy meat, chicken, milk, and eggs. I don’t want white bread, I probably don’t want whole wheat bread, I definitely don’t want corn (unless it’s a tortilla chip) or beans or soy. I don’t want fake sugar, or agave, or real sugar…
Nulo for Nali
I’ve mentioned Austin-based company Nulo before (Nutrition + Love, awwww!) but now that my lovable if slightly neurotic mutt Denali has tried Nulo (nulo.com), I’ve got more to say. The bounty shipped quickly: Two varieties of dry food, a selection of wet, and some treats. Nali, as I mentioned, is a smidge neurotic. Poor thing…
Austin: Snap Kitchen Update
Snap Kitchen. Everything about it is so right. The store – you walk in to an airy, all-windowed place with bright green floors, bamboo counters and tables, white plastic chairs, and bright orange accoutrements. There are no walls, save some muddled clear walls defining a main office and registered dietician’s office. That’s right–there’s a full…
More on why you should eat grassfed beef
For a video interview (peep it here) for EndlessBeauty.com, a colleague and I hit up My Fit Foods, who is sponsoring us for two weeks of our Extreme Body Challenge. In Austin, My Fit Foods was quickly a big hit with the CrossFit community but has recently faced some fierce competition from the likes of…
Snap Kitchen
In Austin, we’re all busy, we’re all super active, and we’re all worried about our health. Sure, we love our queso and margaritas and gourmet doughnuts and cupcake trailers, but on the regular we like to eat right. Snap Kitchen is a new chef-prepared, healthy take-out food concept that is opening not one, but TWO…
My Fit Foods Update – Open & Huge Discount!
My Fit Foods’ Westlake location finally opened last Friday (here’s my previous coverage of My Fit Foods), and today a fantastic Groupon arrived in my email box: $15 for $40 worth of food – that’s 64% off! I immediately bought it. My Fit Foods is prepared foods that are healthy in the real way (low…
