Paleo Cream of Mushroom Soup

Paleo Cream of Mushroom Soup

This is a great soup for recipes or as a standalone.  I like it as is… but it is more attractive with a garnish or a sauce.  One day I’ll update this with a prettier photo but for now, the basics.  I love mushrooms, personally, […]

Tempering Chocolate

Tempering Chocolate

Let’s talk about tempering chocolate!  Tempered chocolate is shiny and crisp and when you snap it it makes a cracking sound.  If you have blooms (white on the surface of the chocolate) it has begun to lose its temper but it is not all lost.  […]

Paleo Cassava Tortillas

Paleo Cassava Tortillas

Cassava tortillas are a family favorite.  In trying to wean my family off of (soooo much) corn, I was experimenting with these using different flours and methods… and finally settled on this.  As a bonus I can eat them thanks to a long but worthwhile […]

Paleo Bulletproof Chai Latte

Paleo Bulletproof Chai Latte

This is a gorgeous, fat-bomb-bulletproof-style chai with all the foam and joy of a real live latte.  I use a stainless steel milk frother, but if you have a ball jar and a leak proof lid, that can work in a pinch. Electric frothers are […]

Dark Chocolate Espresso Mint Cookies (Keto, Paleo)

Dark Chocolate Espresso Mint Cookies (Keto, Paleo)

I have to say… when I was a kid I really liked my mom’s cookies.  They were blue ribbon award winning oatmeal cookies and they were gorgeous.  But my favorite cookies were Double Chocolate Mint Chip ones she make on a whim once and then […]

Hazelnut Milk

Hazelnut Milk

I am that lady who picks up stuff in the “organic” section, reads the ingredients and put them back in disgust. I know some of these things take a bit of process to make shelf stable but I am unwilling to put ingredients in my […]

Chai Spice Hempseed Porridge (Nootropic, Keto, Vegan)

Chai Spice Hempseed Porridge (Nootropic, Keto, Vegan)

I have been intermittent fasting for a couple of years now.  I tend to break from it on Saturdays to shake things up and I have been craving this for weeks now so I thought it a good time to revive it.  Needless to say […]

Lamb Meatballs

Lamb Meatballs

These meatballs are a weekly (or at least fortnightly) staple meal in our home and are always a favorite.  They are easy to make, autoimmune friendly, egg-free, gluten-free and grain-free!  I usually make them with hot chips of either the nightshade or sweet potato variety […]

Dark Chocolate Coconut Ice Cream (Keto & Paleo)

Dark Chocolate Coconut Ice Cream (Keto & Paleo)

This is another adaptation of my mother’s keto ice cream genius.  She went to work to create a keto version of Chocolate Moose Tracks and after quite a few tries she nailed it!  I cannot do dairy so I adapted it for me and used […]

Apple Pie with Cassava Crust (Paleo options, No Sugar)

Apple Pie with Cassava Crust (Paleo options, No Sugar)

I was really pleased with the results of this pie.  It was tricky to be sure to make the cassava flour behave but in the end with my usual tricks it did just fine. It is an offshoot of my Einkorn Apple Pie, but it […]
