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

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

Fajitas (sorta)
Tuesday night I made chicken fajitas and threw them on top of a bed of romaine lettuce and red cabbage! On the side we had guacamole from Trader Joe’s and organic,full-fat grass-fed Greek yogurt for sour cream. We rarely use sour cream so I don’t buy it unless I specifically plan to use a lot… Read more

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… Read more

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… Read more

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… Read more

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… Read more
