Southern Fried Green Tomatoes

When you hear Fried Green Tomatoes, it may conjure up images of Idgie and Ruth running the old Whistle Stop Café and getting into trouble with the law.  And you know, I’m sure their fried tomatoes were just peachy, but nothing compared to the party-on-a-plate I’m about to present to you. There is something about […] Read more…

Homemade Almond Flour

If you’ve never seen the movie “Stranger than Fiction”, then you might not appreciate this picture…   In this scene, Will Ferrell’s character is giving Maggie Gyllenhaal, a woman he’s auditing (and falling in love with), a bouquet of flours.  She owns a bakery, so it makes sense, and it’s adorable. And it made me […] Read more…

Recipe for Brazilian Strawberry Dessert

I have a precious friend who is from Brazil. And she loves to cook. And she invited us over to eat with her family recently. From Brazil.  Loves to cook.  Invited us over. Yippee! The food was delicious and beautiful and unique. But the dessert… I’ll just sum it up:  Brazilians are better at making […] Read more…

Recipe For Look-A-Like Larabars

Have you ever had one of these?? It’s a Larabar! They are my very favorite type of “bar.”  Chewy…brownie-like…wonderful. Larabars even fall into that oh-so-difficult-to-fulfill list of Paleo qualifications. No sugar! No dairy! No grains! You should try one. Actually, you shouldn’t try one. They are very expensive.  Over-priced, in my opinion. You should whip […] Read more…

How To Make Boxed Mixes Taste Better

Homemade typically wins… …Homemade cards trump Hallmark.  Nothing says “I love you” from my preschooler more than random pieces of string, old food, and shredded paper glued to a piece of heart-shaped paper. …According to my kids, a made-up story is so much better than one out of a book.  Who wants a quiet reading […] Read more…

A Whole30 / Paleo Meal Plan - berries

A Paleo / Whole30 Meal Plan

I am officially a Whole30 convert…and quite possibly the most unexpected convert to ever join the Paleo / Whole30 community. I fought it for so long.  And I fought it hard.  It’s like I wanted to be so justifiably miserable that I could return to the “fun” way of eating sans conviction. But alas, here […] Read more…

Recipe for Whole30 Brownies - Time to eat

Recipe for Whole30 Brownies (+ some honey)

This recipe is one giant leap for mankind. I thought it couldn’t be done.  Whole30 brownies?  But it can.  And I’m going to share all about it with you.  🙂 I’m on my second round of the Whole30 diet…so I guess that puts me somewhere around day 48 of this 30-day food “experience.”  And to […] Read more…
