You might say this is the recipe that broke the caveman’s back. Julie had made Paleo Grits only a few days before, and I really wanted to surprise her with a cool meal that incorporated her latest creation. Julie is the real brains behind the apron in our house. So...
This is our take on meatloaf, again one of those all-time ultimate comfort foods. Most family recipes for meatloaf involve similar basics, though quite a few home recipes call for added breadcrumbs and store-bought ketchup. Much like burgers, this Turkey Loafing...
If you were to poll people who have embarked on a paleo path and ask them “what protein source do you most often eat?” chances are chicken would be at the top of the list. There are hundreds if not thousands of ways to prepare chicken, which makes life all that more...
The first time I made coq au vin for one of my Le Creuset cooking demonstrations, I was convinced that I was either going to burn my eyebrows off or injure some innocent bystander. Flambéing is dramatic, and always gets my heart racing with that noise it makes as it...
A few things to remember about chicken, barbecue, and grilling: always use tongs to handle your meat, store-bought sauce isn’t worth the gas you used to go pick it up, and it is really hard to screw up BBQ Chicken. This recipe calls for using the same cuts of chicken....

There is just something special about chicken. It seems to have its toe in so many comforting recipes. Chicken pot pie has to be near the top of most folks’ comfort food lists. Something about the word “pie,” I guess. The crust may crack and separate a bit, depending...
Turkey will come across your radar at minimum once a year. We gave this recipe a try this Thanksgiving when we spent four days in Tennessee and told my Mom to stay out of the kitchen. You should have seen her. She didn’t know what to do with herself the entire time we...
Let it be known that to say I (Julie) love Mexican food might actually be an understatement. Since converting to a paleo way of eating, Mexican food at our house and out at restaurants has usually meant fajitas in some way, shape, or form, minus the beans and rice,...
The history of Country Captain absolutely fascinates me. Do some searching around the Internet, and you’ll spend hours upon hours reading about this dish and folks like Cecily Brownstone, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and even the U.S. Army making Country Captain...
