I made a cake. A glorious, delicious, flavorful chocolate paleo cake. I was bought I had greased the pan enough, but the chunk of cake that decided to remain in the pan mockingly told me otherwise. Because this cake was for a dinner party dessert, a pivot was essential. Inspired by a holiday episode of…

Apple Cider Donut Holes
I’m always looking for small bites that I can bring to a party. Something that I don’t have to put a disclaimer on because let’s face it when people see gluten-free dairy free they think it’s also going to be flavor free. I came up with the idea of doing apple cider donut holes because…
Some Dip-itty Do for You
I love cheesy jokes. And one of my favorite cheesy cheese jokes is: “What kind of cheese is my cheese?” “Na-cho cheese!!” I mean it just never gets old – like cheese. Of course, cheesy jokes aside, cheese is not my friend. Even the dehydrated cheese, dust chemical magic of a Dorito gives me dairy…
Italian Wedding Soup – Cozy Paleo
It’s snowing again in Massachusetts. I’m excited about that because I’ve only run to the airport in the snow, and to me, snow means I do ALL the cooking. Of course, I’ve only been home for a day, so the cupboard is just a wee bit bare. I looked at what I had and what…
Crustless Kibbeh
I love my Walden Local Meat meat-share program so much, but being on the road so much frequently causes a back log of meat in my freezer. The next few days are dedicated to freeing up space by cooking all those things just hanging out in my freezer. Today, I made kibbeh. Kibbeh is a…
Festive Paleo Pork Loin with Figgy Chutney
Everything I eat in December tastes like Christmas or I’m just plain disappointed. I’m disturbingly festive and I want festive and flavorful food. Pork loin is great for dinner parties, or to make just for a small dinner if you portion it when you buy it. This recipe even received compliments from my father, a…
Easy Holiday Game Hen
Cornish game hen is one of my favorite meals to prepare, whether for myself or for others. One of the things I love about it is I know how many to buy – one per person. That’s easy math right there. I can do it in my head. Another reason I’m into game hen is…
Thanksgiving is Here!!
Thanksgiving is upon us and brings with it so many of my amazing family and friends, I can barely contain myself. Due to some time constrictions and an impromptu “sure, I can house sit for you”, I didn’t get to cook everything I had planned. Someday I will learn how to say no to people….
Paleo Burger Love
Are you looking for a burger bursting with all the flavors? Salty, sweet, tart, and tasty!! This burger has it all. I was craving this Spanish stew my mother made with olives and lemon and cumin, but I leave for another trip tomorrow, so I don’t want a big thing of stew hanging around. I…
Paleo Pumpkin Bites
What’s Fall without treats full of pumpkin? I was a fan of pumpkin even before Starbucks came out with their pumpkin coffees, so you know I’m a true blue pumpkin lover. These pumpkin bites are great because you can bring them to a party as finger food, you can throw them in a lunch bag,…
