Whole30 Day 1
Day 1 was a breeze. In the morning I had a Whole30 compliant coffee creamer. I didn’t have time to make breakfast at home so at some point during work I made some eggs and ate them with salsa and strawberries. ‘ The afternoon was so busy so I didn’t have time to make lunch… Read more

Whole 30: My Why
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… Read more

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… Read more

Enchilada Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Carbs have been my best friend for the past week and a half. There’s a recipe that I’ve had ‘pinned’ for the past few years that I FINALLY got to try out at the beginning of the week. It’s Enchilada Stuffed Sweet Potatoes from Against All Grain. I used shredded chicken instead of ground beef. I cooked… Read more

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

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

Fried Fish
Typically my husband and I stock up on frozen fish at Whole Foods like mahi and wild sockeye salmon. Well apparently my husband threw in a bag of frozen monkfish. I saw it defrosting in the refrigerator the other night and thought it was mahi since it was white. We ate the fish last night… Read more

Beef Stirfry
My husband and I FINALLY made the drive to Whole Foods in Tampa two weekends ago to stock up on meat. It’s been great to have fresh high quality red meat in our lives again. I absolutely love the smell of raw steak. I often wonder if I’d like the taste as well…..lol I’ve heard… Read more

Brisket Dinner
Grabbed food from Locale Market last night. It actually wasn’t our first choice. We wanted to go to Chief’s Creole Cafe but they, along with the bbq joint next door, were rented out for a private event. I’ve had brisket from Locale at least three other times and each time it was soooooo good! Mouth-watering… Read more
