Chocolate Covered Strawberry Oatmeal Balls
I made this recipe last week using two ingredients you probably aren’t used to seeing on this food blog: oats and peanut butter. Gasp! Since I used oats and peanut butter, this recipe is neither Whole30 nor paleo! But I’ll tell you why I did this if you want to hang around. On hiking and […]
Caramelized Shallot and Bacon Chicken Salad
This chicken salad recipe is a goooooood one, let me just tell you this now. There are so many goodies stuffed into one bite, your taste buds won’t know what to do with themselves. They’ll be left wanting for more, and they won’t give in until you’ve polished off your entire bowl of chicken salad […]
Watermelon Basil Daiquiris
A few weeks ago I came across a post on Instagram where the person was celebrating all of the wonderful produce of the summer. That is certainly something to celebrate! The woman who posted the photo asked her audience what their favorite summer produce was. After much deliberation, I decided that my answer to her […]
Edible Cookie Dough
I have tried a LOT of paleo cookie dough in my day, and they all leave just a little tiny something to be desired. Look, it’s entirely safe to say that paleo raw cookie dough just isn’t as delicious as the chemical-laden stuff we were raised on, am I right? It just be like that […]

Kickin’ Cajun Chicken Wings with Remoulade
I don’t need to be told that remoulade doesn’t traditionally go with chicken wings. I’m well aware, okay? But one thing you should know about me is that I LOVE me a good condiment. Whenever I make a recipe like this, it’s because I want the condiment. The thing I’m dipping into the condiment (in […]
Blueberry Cheesecake Popsicles
Temperatures are supposed to be in the 80’s all week long here in Connecticut. I’m not ready for this kind of weather this early in the year. Yes, I know it happens this early every single year, but that still doesn’t mean I’m ready for it or I welcome it. In my old age I […]
Bacon Fig Frittata
Before I made this recipe I had never had figs before in my life. Rather, if I had had figs previously, I didn’t eat them knowingly. Maybe they were shoved into a dish I’ve ordered in the past out at a restaurant. That I can’t say for sure. But this recipe was the very first […]
Chicken Apple Sheet Pan Bake
I hope you’re ready to experience all of the very best flavors of fall…right here in May. I have impeccable timing, wouldn’t you agree? Last March or April when the pandemic frenzy was at an all time high, the only meat that seemed to be available in the grocery store was processed meats like lunch […]
Sous Vide Chicken Breast with Garlic Shallot Pan Sauce
If you don’t own a sous vide, what are you even doing with your life? I ask this seriously, because I really and truly must know. Mike gifted me a sous vide years ago for my birthday. I remember opening the gift and thinking to myself, what in the heck is this contraption? This was […]
