I’ve always been a fan of mayo. It was one of my favorite condiments for sandwiches, meat, and even dipping veggies in. Now that I’m eating a ketogenic paleo diet for epilepsy, I found that utilizing paleo mayo is a great way to keep my fat content up. It’s also infinitely customizable. Add a couple…
Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon
Brussels Sprouts are quite possibly one of the most misunderstood veggies out there. My dad shares the generalized opinion that they are the most foul tasting vegetable on the planet.
