MUSHROOM AND SAUSAGE STUFFING My mom made this stuffing for our first Paleo Thanksgiving. I remember being really hesitant about it, wondering what in the world Thanksgiving might be like without creamy mashed potatoes and bread stuffing. It may be different, but it’s…
MARINATED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS For some reason, these marinated portobello mushrooms always remind me of my mom, which is funny because I don’t think she makes them that often—I guess she did once or twice, and I really remembered them. (It’s the same way with…
GRILLED MUSHROOM SALAD I had a really awesome salad once with my friend Blair at a restaurant in Charlotte called Luna’s Living Kitchen; it was a huge bowl of kale greens topped with the most delicious mushrooms I’d ever eaten. That restaurant is a mostly raw vegan…
CREAM OF MUSHROOM SOUP This mushroom soup is really creamy and really good. I know thick, cheesy soups can be incredibly comforting in the colder months, but this beef broth base (say that five times fast) does the trick with the help of a can of full-fat coconut…
BUTTON MUSHROOM CEVICHE This recipe was inspired by two completely different things: first, a trip I took to Miami where I ate almost nothing but ceviche for three whole days, and second, those little marinated, almost-pickled mushrooms you sometimes find in olive…
SQUASH RIBBON SALAD WITH APPLES AND WALNUTS This is a really interesting salad to eat for lunch, with lots of texture and flavor going on. The combination of kale, apples, and squash already makes it feel pretty autumnal. Add some walnuts for crunch and a splash of…
SQUASH NOODLES IN WALNUT-SAGE BUTTER This is a super easy and really luxurious recipe. The combination of fresh sage and walnuts in a simple butter sauce is a winner. SERVES 4 PREP TIME: 10 minutes COOK TIME: 10 minutes 4 tablespoons grass-fed butter 1 small shallot,…
SQUASH CASSEROLE Summer squash is so versatile but for some reason never got any of the hype that zucchini did, and I’m not sure why—you can still make it into noodles, cut it up and have it raw with Beet Hummus (here) or Ranch Dressing (here), just sauté it in some…
SQUASH BREAKFAST SKILLET This recipe is a squash-y take on Baked Eggs in Tomato Sauce (here). They’re still baked in a tomato sauce, but lots of fresh summer squash is added to up the vegetable count. Squash and tomatoes go so well together, and with baked eggs, this…
SQUASH BISQUE Thick, creamy butternut squash soup is incredibly comforting and perfect on a chilly fall day, although you could definitely lighten it up and serve it any time of year. Make a big batch of this the next time you find a butternut squash at the…
SPAGHETTI SQUASH WITH MEAT SAUCE Spaghetti squash has really become a Paleo staple—long before people were spiralizing zucchini and other squash, the humble spaghetti squash was offering up its succulent flesh, which, when roasted and then raked with a fork, releases…
SAUTÉED SQUASH WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES This squash with sun-dried tomatoes is a wonderful side dish for summer. A big batch of it goes perfectly with burgers or hotdogs at a cookout, but it’s also a great option for weeknight dinners and will be great with any…
