  • ~*~ Cloud Bread ~*~

    ~*~ Cloud Bread ~*~
    ,

    The other day my sister-in-law sent me a link to a blog post from The Big Apple Mama which contains a recipe for cloud bread made with THREE ingredients!! The three magical ingredients are eggs (separated), cream cheese and baking soda. Since there is not much need for cream cheese in a primal household, it was… Read more

  • Chicken Adobo

    Chicken Adobo

    Being that my mommy is Filipino, chicken adobo was a dinner staple for my family growing up. I was never interested in cooking (until I met my husband and actually started to care about my health) so I never helped my mom with dinner or cared to learn her recipes. A few years ago I… Read more

  • Almond Butter Cookies

    ,

    Peanut butter cookies are aaaaaaaaamazing but since peanuts are a primal/paleo no-no I make almond butter cookies. Turns out that almond butter is just as tasty, if not better! 😉 Last night I baked cookies using this recipe from Paleo Cookiest. I did not follow step 4, which says: Spoon 1 tablespoon of mixture about… Read more

  • Chicken Soup, Linguine, Pumpkin Custard

    ,

    Today I took it upon myself to make REAL chicken soup for the family I work for. They’ve been very busy and consequently their bodies are tired. I saw some Airborne on the counter and thought that some healing foods would be good for them. They have a few cans of chicken soup and a… Read more

  • Slacker

    ,

    So this was dinner like two weeks ago. London broil. Pretty rare, to my liking. My husband did a fabulous job cooking this ^.^ The veggie/meat ratio doesn’t look right in this photo but rest assured, I ate like a plateful of broccoli altogether. Between the two of us we kill a whole bag of… Read more

  • Brewer’s Tasting Room

    Dinner Friday evening was pretty standard: Chicken thighs, onions and mushrooms with broccoli 👍 (there was more broccoli waiting for me on the stove). Saturday morning I painted my toes and had a few mimosas before the day turned dark and dreary. It was about 1:30 when the weather turned nasty. Shortly after that time… Read more

  • Quiche-ish Dish

    ,

    A few weeks ago I attended a 3rd birthday party celebration. It was a Saturday morning purple pajama party with a waffle bar!! Lots of waffles, lots of toppings and garnishes for the bloody Mary bar. There was also a quiche. Quiche is delicious and simple yet I’ve never made one. I obtained the recipe… Read more

  • Fluffy Blueberry Pancakes

    ,

    This past Saturday I had the pleasure of making pancakes for breakfast. My husband and I tend to stick to more protein & veggie based breakfasts rather than faux-grain based. The exception would be for primal biscuits but those are always served with eggs and sausage/bacon/ham. My husband grew tired of coconut flour pancakes that… Read more

  • Steak…. it’s been waaaaaayy too long!

    ,

    I had it in my mind that I’ve been eating too much red meat. Not sure why because looking back we’ve mostly been eating chicken, salmon and pork. Mostly chicken. I’m a little tired of chicken. Yesterday I grabbed a few grass-fed ribeyes at Publix. Can’t have steak without carmelized mushrooms and onions! I asked… Read more

  • Chicken “Pasta”

    ,

    I had spaghetti squash and chicken thighs. I went on Pinterest and typed “chicken pasta” for ideas. I didn’t want to make straight up alfredo because my husband isn’t too keen on creamy sauce dishes. I envy his natural gravitation toward tomato-based soups and sauces. Anyway, the recipe I found was from www.cookingclassy.com. Lemon Ricotta… Read more
