It seems like when people make the switch to a paleo lifestyle, they naturally gravitate towards this classic dish for a snack, especially when it comes to parties and get togethers. I can’t tell you how many of these I’ve eaten in my lifetime because it’s quite honestly, way too many to even think about….
Crab Dip with Homemade Cocktail Sauce
This is an appetizer that my family serves at virtually every get together we have. Most notably Thanksgiving and Christmas. The version we usually make is a simple parfait of sorts of all the ingredients layered on top of each other. Traditionally, we just place the cream cheese log on a plate then add crab…
Spiced Cider Brined Head Cheese
This has been something that I’ve wanted to make for over 2 years now. I first heard of headcheese from a friend of mine at the gym. I was running a 12 week paleo challenge there, and he asked me what my take on headcheese was. At the time I was dead against any and…
Crock Pot Bone Broth
First off, I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year! I truly hope your holiday break was as amazing as mine was. My girlfriend and I each traveled home to Colorado to visit our families for Christmas. Her entire family was in town from Alabama for the eventual birth of her new nephew. Which…
Holiday Lattes with Paleo Shortbread
We’re officially in Mid December A.K.A. the thick of the Holiday Season. Now is the time where everyone starts making (and devouring) all those tempting and delicious holiday treats. My family alone makes over 8 different kinds of cookies and treats for Christmastime. From turtles (chocolate, caramel and pecans) to hazelnut chocolate covered chow mein…
Review: Nom Nom Paleo: Food For Humans | Asian Cauliflower Fried “Rice”
If you’re a paleo person, just starting out or a veteran offal eater – you’ve got to be familiar with the seriously popular site by Michelle Tam: Nom Nom Paleo. Michelle’s site is dedicated to paleo recipes, yes, but it’s oh-so-much more. That’s why when she broke the news that she and her husband Henry…
Crock Pot Carne Asada
So I know lately, given the season, I’ve been focusing on lots of desserts and holiday fare. So with this recipe, I wanted to get away from that briefly, hey Thanksgiving might be over but Christmas is coming, and I have a few recipes coming down the pipe for that! But for now, I must…
Ginger Cilantro Salmon Cakes
I know that beef and pork make up the bulk of the recipes on this site. There’s only a handful of seafood recipes on here and while I do eat seafood fairly regularly, I haven’t posted many of the recipes here. Sorry about that. I do have a whole list of seafood items that I…
Top Ten Thanksgiving Recipes
This month has by far been my busiest month of the year. With it being Epilepsy Awareness Month, my current attempts to come off of my medication, not to mention Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and to top it all off, I have to move into a new place by the end of the…
Pumpkin Pie Crème Brûlée
One of my favorite things about Fall and the holiday season in general is the abundance of pumpkin flavored…everything really. Before my evolution into paleo, I can safely say that I consumed my fair share of pumpkin pies, lattes, cakes, muffins among others. Once I gave up sugar and grains however, all that changed (for…
