Lately we’ve been making skillet salmon fillets about once a week. They’re super quick and easy. What’s great about salmon is it’s so versatile and handles various cooking methods so well. Be it on the grill or cedar plank, roasted in the oven or even gently cooked in the Sous Vide, salmon cooks up like…
Vietnamese Street Tacos
These Vietnamese street tacos are something that I’ve wanted to make for quite awhile now. It’s no secret that since I moved to Canada for work, I’ve been slightly obsessed with the traditional Vietnamese noodle soup of Pho. I’ve made it myself before and even make my bone broth the same flavor because I find it…
Hazelnut Mocha Smoothie
One of the places we MUST stop at whenever we go to Austin, TX is Picnik. They have a knack for making some amazingly creative and tasty blended coffee options (not to mention the most deadly delicious blondies ever conceived). They start with the idea of bulletproof-style coffee but in a blended variation. So really…
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,…
Sausage Stuffing Stuffed Squash
The credit for this recipe goes all to Suz. She’s been working so hard on her Autoimmunity Protocol (AIP) and a big struggle she’s had in the past is making meals that have variety. This Sausage Stuffing Stuffed Squash is no exception. I really couldn’t be more proud of her. As of this posting she’s just…
Sous Vide Beef Filet Tail and Sweet Potato Mash
Now this recipe was actually made for the first time a couple of weeks before I even moved up to Vancouver. Since then, I’ve made it multiple times with subtle variations just to see what works best. The key though is a nice filet tail from our friends at Tx Bar Organics and the flavor…
Review: Clean Eating With A Dirty Mind | White Chocolate Caramel Cashew Clusters
When you go Paleo, there are so many things you might have a hard time leaving behind – mainly those that fall into the ‘decadent’ category. From salty favorites to sweet delights, there are many temptations, comfort foods and old favorites that we all miss dearly. That’s where someone who is part mad genius, part…
Bone Broth Bouillon Cubes
So this recipe is actually something I’ve been making on a weekly basis for about 4 months now. It’s THE perfect way to take bone broth with you on the go without worrying about it spilling in transit. Since I’ve been living in Vancouver for just over a year now, I tend to walk or ride…
Flourless Dark Chocolate Cake
This Flourless Chocolate Cake has been in the works in the Pastured Test Kitchen for quite some time now. It started back several years ago when at my cousin’s birthday party in LA, she served this delicious flourless cake! Then there was another LA family get-together, and that cake was served again! Upon about the…
