This is the 10th year I’ve hosted a neighborhood cookie party. It’s one of my favorite Christmas traditions. Everyone brings cookies and their recipe, we talk, eat, enjoy the evening and go home with a yummy assortment. Here’s the recipes for the treats that were brought this year. Banana Drop Cookies...
A friend once brought this fudge to a Christmas exchange I host and it was soo good! I made a few tweaks to a very basic, easy recipe to make it more Paleo friendly. Even though I make it with less sugar, it’s still a pretty sweet treat, but the complexity of the cinnamon and...
This summer I grew mint in my garden and with the sole purpose of making mojitos. I’d never made my own before and wasn’t sure how they’d turn out. Answer: deelish! Note: these are NOT paleo (duh) — they contain sugar and alcohol so if you are a paleo purist, this is not the...
This is fast becoming my favorite party food. It’s perfect for potlucks, summer parties, or football tailgates. While not perfectly paleo (it contains cream cheese), it’s pretty close and the addition of sweet potato reduces the amount of cream cheese required. Many bacon jalapeno recipes wrap the bacon around the jalapeno. In this version,...
I have a recipe for “Tutti Fruity Kabobs” that I got from my mom and loved to make in my pre-paleo days. Now that our diet is cleaner, I still make these kabobs, with just a few tweaks. Here’s the paleo version of the yummy chicken kabobs — they are perfect for summer grilling!...
With all this cold weather, I’ve been craving soup and was looking for something different than my usual fare. After searching a bit on the interweb, I found a great looking recipe for Brazilian Shrimp Stew. I made a few alterations to suit my taste and my ingredients on hand. Since I don’t know anything...
I try and plan my meals for the week and I usually have time to cook, but some nights are just crazy or somehow it’s 5 o’clock and I haven’t a clue what to make. For those nights, it’s chicken breasts to the rescue. Aside from time to defrost, it can be grilled in...
We love apple crisp, but we don’t love gluten. Fortunately, eating paleo doesn’t mean you have to give up this delicious fall dessert. While my old apple crisp recipe is definitely yummy, we find this paleo-ified version quite tasty and way better for you. The nice thing about apple crisps is that they are not fussy (unlike...
I’ve shared before the way I make Paleo Mayo, using an immersion blender. I recently had a lightbulb moment and realized it can be made in the container you will store it in, eliminating more dishes. Brilliant! The recipe is the same as before, but I include it again here so all...
