  • Smothered Chicken with “Rice”

    Last night’s dinner was inspired by this recipe from Just A Pinch.  Before finding that recipe, I acquired a homemade batch of cream of mushroom soup from a local market and wanted to somehow incorporate chicken. I used Pinterest to search for “cream of mushroom with chicken” and the aforementioned recipe looked like the perfect meal!… Read more

  • Shake ‘N’ Bake Pork Chops

    Shake ‘N’ Bake Pork Chops

    Recipe via Primal Palate! The recipe can be found here. So here’s how this all went down– we’re going to go way, way, back. I subscribe to emails from Flo Living, thanks to my sister-in-law referring me to their site after talks of wanting to balance my hormones, and in April they sent out an… Read more

  • Breakfast: Shakshuka

    Breakfast: Shakshuka
    , ,

    Earlier in the week a Facebook friend {funny how we have actual friends and ‘Facebook friends’ right?? Such an interesting classification. Like she and I aren’t friends in that we hang out being that we’ve never seen each other outside of a certain environment, but we definitely have a relationship of sorts. Her daughter was in… Read more

  • Steak Dinner

    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… Read more

  • Lamb Meatballs + Kelp Noodles

    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… 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

  • 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

  • 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
