Stuffing
Happy Thursday! I’m happy you’re here, and I’m happy to remind you that Thanksgiving is exactly two weeks from today! 2019 is basically over, it’s fine. I am having a blast creating new Thanksgiving recipes! I think it’s mostly due to the fact that Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, as explained in a recent blog […]
Bacon Wrapped Dates
If you’re looking for a super simple appetizer recipe for your upcoming holiday parties, you’ve come to the right place! I know that bacon wrapped dates have been around for a little while, but to my knowledge most people stuff them with some sort of cheese or nothing at all. My version brings something a […]
Classic Chicken Salad
Now that Halloween is over, I thought about just diving headfirst into Thanksgiving recipes. I’ve already got a few up my sleeve for you that you’ll be seeing on the blog in the next few weeks! And who could honestly forget about my Stuffed Acorn Squash from early last week. Now that’s a tasty holiday […]
Spanish Chicken Soup
I ate this soup for lunch every day last week. I finished it and even after eating it for five days straight I miss it and I wish I had more. I think that’s a sure sign of a successful recipe! This recipe was Mike’s idea! We are both big fans of the fully cooked […]
Stuffed Acorn Squash
I made this recipe with Mike’s mom in mind. A few weeks ago she invited Mike and I over for dinner. I decided that that was the night I would tell his parents about my blog. I had mentioned to his mom a few times over the past several months that I was toying with […]
Vegan Pumpkin Bisque with Homemade Vegetable Stock
I went to the grocery store to shop for ingredients for this recipe and I was horrified at the laundry list of ingredients I saw in store bought vegetable broth/stock. I can’t tell you the last time I bought vegetable broth but I guess it’s been a while. Back when I didn’t read food labels […]
Ranch Dressing
One of the hardest parts of switching to a paleo/Whole30 diet was, for me, the condiments. I am the condiment QUEEN. Years ago Jess and I used to go to the gym together after work, and occasionally, we’d go out to dinner together after that. Really reverse all that work we had done in the […]
Instant Pot Creamy Chicken Soup
Two things I am SOUPER into right now are soup recipes of any kind and my Instant Pot. I’ve used my Instant Pot three times in the past four days. I used to use it maybe once a week but right now I’m really on a roll and I am loving creating new recipes with […]
Lazy Joe Sliders
The night that I tested this recipe for the first time Mike had offered to buy me dinner earlier in the evening. He left our apartment around 3:00 pm, headlamp in hand, to go for a long run on the rail trail about a half hour away from where we live. I knew it would […]
Sausage Kale Soup
Full disclosure: this recipe is Joanna Gaines’ Sausage Kale Soup recipe that I modified for paleo and Whole30. According to the cookbook (which I am very happy I own), the recipe from the cookbook is the very one served in her restaurant Magnolia Table in Waco, Texas. Her cookbook is AMAZING and I have made […]
