    Yesterday I began the Whole30 program. Why? Over the past few years I have had some food issues that I have been neglecting to deal with and I know that certain foods negatively impact my health in noticeable ways . On my own, I have not had the willpower to be purely paleo/primal and abstain…

  • Pancit Made Primal

    My mom is Filipino and one of my favorite meals that she makes is pancit. I’m pretty sure that pancit is just a word for noodles and can describe any noodle dish but upon further research I believe the dish my mom makes is called Pancit Bihon Guisado. I make it the exact way that my…

  • Steak Dinner

    Thursday night my husband cooked up a simple steak dinner from a beautiful grass-feed sirloin that I acquired from our local health food store a few days prior. Seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Here we have caramelized onions, mushrooms and a few carrots because nothing goes better with a steak than caramelized veggies. I…

  • Lamb Meatballs + Kelp Noodles

    A few weeks ago I went grocery shopping at our favorite locally owned health food store while hungry and I bought kelp noodles! I had never heard of them and I had no idea if they were any good but I read the ingredients and saw that they are simply kelp! I think reading “neutral…
