Pesto Salmon
This past Saturday I discovered the yumminesss that is pesto. How I have avoided pesto all these years to not have known how incredible it is, is beyond me. I made lamb meatballs with a pesto sauce that should’ve gone with noodles but I was making a quick pre-beach snack. Anyway I wanted more pesto…

Sushi
What’s for lunch? A sushi bowl from Fresh Market: That’s not primal, you may be thinking to yourself. Buuuuuut it is! Check out this information on resistant starch from Mark’s Daily Apple. Sushi from the deli case is now fair game 😄😄😄😄😄 My husband and I were thrilled to hear about this! Those rice-free cucumber…

Here is what I cooked for dinner last night– delicious primal pad thai!! Recipe from Primal Cravings. Hers & His! But do not be fooled, I actually eat the same amount as my husband lol He just isn’t a fan of eating from little bowls.

V-day breakfast
I thought bacon hearts would be adorable for today BUT Whole Foods had pork belly when we were there last Sunday!! It was only Step 1 (they have an animal welfare rating system) buuut it’s still organic AND IT’S PORK BELLY! I feel like it’s a rare cut. It’s not frequently available so we had…

Mahi Mahi with Broccoli
Kept it simple tonight with blackened pan-fried mahi (frozen) and half a bag of frozen broccoli (hubby had the other half, of course) cooked with shallots! I never follow in the cooking instructions on the bag (from Woodstock). I just throw it in a pot with a little bit of water and cook it until…

Lamb Chops
Before: After: My husband went to Publix and purchased lamb shoulder chops. I think it’s the first time we’ve eaten lamb at home! I was scared of lamb up until last year. I’m still pretty timid, but am more open to it and love it every time. I’m still not 100% sold lol I usually…

Super Bowl 2015
Didn’t host a party, didn’t attend a party. Just stayed home with my husband and enjoyed a delicious primal pizza using the recipe from Primal Cravings. I know it doesn’t look fancy but it is the best grain-free pizza crust. I actually add in some coconut flour to mask the potato taste. The potato taste…

Primal Family Meal
Last night my mother-in-law made the most wonderful dinner! My husband and I are the only primal peeps in the family but everybody else is counting calories and steps therefore they’re eating pretty low carb. This works out great for us because last night’s dinner was 100% primal! There was nothing that I had to…

My Nightly Treat
Dessert. Usually I sprinkle cacao nibs on there but I don’t feel like dealing with the nibs invading every crevice of my teeth lol

Mexican Dinner Splurge
Since my husband has today off we went out for dinner and drinks with friends last night. We wanted something cheap with a fun atmosphere so we choose one of our go-to spots, Red Mesa Cantina. They had an open face quesadilla on special. I really miss quesadillas and I feel like it would be…
