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
~*~ 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
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
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
Enchiladas
This post contains affiliate links. Please read my affiliate disclosure. I was flipping through my Primal Blueprint Cookbook and saw a recipe for enchiladas. Naturally I was intrigued and decided to give it a go. I purchased all of the ingredients and began cooking without having read through the recipe first. Had I done so,… 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
Pad Thai
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. 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
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
