I used to adore a particular locally made biscotti that had a hint of orange flavor and was generously dipped in dark chocolate. Alongside my large-o mocha of sugar and chocolate, it’s no wonder I battled with my weight back then. Now I make my own grain-free treats....
Lemon Blueberry Coolers
These refreshing cookies make a wonderful treat with tea or coffee on a relaxing Sunday morning. I love to make them in the spring and summer when I’m ready for the lighter flavors of lemon and blueberries. Dehydrated blueberries are an excellent addition because they...
Kitchen Sink Cookies
Ahh, I love a recipe that has no hard-and-fast rules. As the name implies, you can throw whatever you’d like into these bad boys . . . well, anything but the kitchen sink! My favorite combo is shown here: chocolate chips, pecans, coconut flakes, and raisins. But we...
Chocolate Almond Butter Swirls
When you start eating Paleo, you think that you’ll never bake again, let alone make eye-catching treats because the ingredients, and therefore the doughs, are so different from traditional baking. But after playing with ingredients and dry-to-liquid ratios, you find...
Almond Shortbread
Shortbread is essentially flour and butter. That’s it! Yet, it’s amazing. Well, I used to think so before going Paleo. Nowadays, I make this version with heart-healthy coconut oil and almond flour, creating an amazingly decadent, melt-in-your-mouth shortbread that...
Pumpkin Cardamom Pancakes
Why should the nasty prepackaged foods get all the convenience? Even Paleo pancakes can be premixed in a jar with a tight-fitting lid, making for easy pancake cookin’ in your hotel room! Make sure to use a larger jar than you think you need, as this batter will...
Coffee Cup Eggs
This recipe isn’t new; it has been around as long as the microwave. But I’m always amazed at how many people don’t know about it or have no idea how to cook an egg in the microwave without it turning into jerky (which, by the way, is not good!). This little breakfast...
Br-Egg-Fast Hot Dogs
Sometimes, when you travel, you have to get creative with breakfast. With a celiac husband, my family can’t just pop into IHOP and order eggs and bacon, hold the pancakes. This is because most restaurants that serve breakfast mix their own pancakes and waffles, or...
Creamy Cilantro No Potato Salad
First, a big thank you goes to Sarah Fragoso at Everyday Paleo for coming up with the original No Potato Salad made with cauliflower. Genius! Second, this recipe is another example of how I often mess up in the kitchen. One of the best parts of a good potato salad,...
Sweet ‘n’ Smoky Deviled Eggs
If you’re tired of the same ol’ deviled eggs, this recipe will get you “egg-cited!” And best of all, you can customize the filling “egg-zactly” how you like. Prefer the flavor of mayo over avocado? You can use Paleo mayo instead, or a little bit of both. Like your...
