If you’re like me, you’re always looking for new and easy sides to add into your weekly meal rotation. There have been times when it felt like all we had was roasted sweet potatoes, which – don’t get me wrong – are delicious, but it’s always good to explore out of your norm. Variety is the…
Curried Chicken Salad
There’s something about chicken salads that just scream “summer” to me. Maybe it’s because growing up in Alabama, where summers are super hot & humid so you didn’t want to use the oven or stove, my mom would have “salad nights” for dinner quite often. Which usually meant a combo of tuna salad, chicken salad, pasta…
Strawberry Lemonade Cupcakes
Summer is upon us, and that means pool parties, backyard BBQs and many holiday shindigs. And what says summer better than Strawberry Lemonade Cupcakes?! That’s right! One of the best beverages made into a delicious handheld cup of cake. Also this one is sure to please a crowd of any age. What makes it special is…
Massaged Kale Salad
Let’s talk kale. Kale has become as ubiquitous a health buzz word over the past several years – it’s like the “fat free” of the 90s. It’s everywhere. We’ve moved beyond kale as a weird garnish on your dinner plate through the world of kale smoothies and kale chips and into a new kale culture,…
Crispy Slow Cooked Duck
It’s no secret that I’m a fan of food projects and recipes that utilize the slow cooked method. Whether it’s in the oven while making fall off the bone tender meat dishes, on the smoker or even in the slow cooker, there’s just something that is magical to me about cooking through the day. I’ve…
Crawfish Frittata
This past summer while visiting Suzanne in Alabama, I wanted to make a traditional Crawfish Boil. It came out awesome (so awesome that we included it in our Best Of Paleo eBook submissions for last year) but in my inexperience or enthusiasm to pull it off, I ordered WAY too much live crawfish for the amount of…
Corned Beef
It’s no secret that I’m quite the fan of food projects. Especially when it comes to making my favorite meats. A few of the more popular posts here are: home cured bacon, spiced cider brined headcheese and even how to render your own lard. Last year I made two different recipes utilizing corned beef for…
Pavlova
Have you ever heard of a Pavlova? I sure hadn’t until my good friend Leslie brought one to our Dancing with the Stars/Bachelor nights as her contribution to the potluck spread. Nothing goes better together than friends, reality tv shows and food! It’s one of the things I miss most about our life in LA….
Loaded Baked Sweet Potato Soup
We’re big fans of the soup purées as you can see from the Roasted Winter Squash Soup and Pumpkin Bacon Soup of year’s past. The Winter Squash Soup is a family staple at Sean’s family holidays and as Suz has said with the Pumpkin Bacon Soup: ‘It’s like Fall in my MOUTH!” These types of…
The Best Paleo Recipes of 2015 Ebook | Crawfish Boil
Near the end of 2014, our good friends Bill & Hayley of Primal Palate told us about their idea for a sort of “best of” paleo recipe round-up. They asked us if we would contribute to it, and of course we happily jumped on board! What an honor to be included among some of the…
