Thyme Butter Chicken

Sometimes you just want a quick and simple meal. Nothing too complicated or time consuming. I for one don’t like coming home after a work day to slave in the kitchen. I like coming home, cook a quick meal and spend sometime with my tiny family (my yorkie likes  to cuddle). So this recipe is one of…

Ginger Honey Glaze Pork Chops

I am thinking of making these pork chops again. They came out so good and they are so easy to make. Who says AIP/Paleo has to be hard or complicated! Ginger Honey Glaze Pork Chops Ingredients 4 boneless pork loin chop 3 tbsp minced ginger 4 garlic, minced 1/4 cup of honey 1/3 coconut amino…

Breakfast Egg Muffin

My husband is a high school physical educator and a coach of two sports. He usually wakes up at 4:30 am and it’s out the door before I’m up. So to make sure he has something to eat in the morning I have made him some delicious breakfast egg muffins 🙂 The best thing about…

Cuban Chicken

Hosting friends and family is one of my favorite things. I love having people over, cooking a delicious meal and making memories. This weekend we had some of our dear friends and their cute little baby. We decided it would be a good idea to share a little taste of Cuba with them 🙂 I…

Tortillas!

What is a week without Taco Tuesday and what is a taco without tortillas? I can’t have flour tortillas because of the gluten and I can’t have corn tortillas because of the grains. So what is a girl to do? Find a paleo friendly tortilla that’s what. Ideally this would be a AIP friendly but…

Coconut Concentrate

Sometimes I feel that following an AIP/Paleo diet is a bit overwhelming. It’s not like you can go to the store and pick up AIP friendly items. Going to the grocery store sometimes its a hassle, not reading the labels is not an option for me. And as a rule of thumb, I stick to…

Olive-Avocado Dressing

I have cravings. Sometimes I crave a juicy burger or a slice of pizza and other times I crave a really good salad. But what is a salad without dressing? It just doesn’t taste the same and most dressings out there have ingredients I can’t have. No salad should be left naked, unless that’s how…

Sage-Braised Chicken

As previously mentioned, The Autoimmune Paleo Cookbook,  is one of my favorite books and I have been cooking a lot from it. I love cookbooks that provide pictures with all of their recipes because it gives me an idea of what the end product should look like and this book does exactly that! I love chicken, more…

Foodie Confessions

In hopes of keeping myself accountable I am going to start a series called Foodie Confessions where I will write about my struggles to sometimes stay on the narrow path that is the Paleo/Autoimmune Protocol (AIP). These might not be regular posts but any time I either give in to temptation (because it happens, I’m human) or think about giving…

Fig-Glazed Chicken

I’ll start by saying that I don’t think I have ever had fig-glazed anything but when I saw this recipe I thought I would give it a try. That’s one thing I do have to say about following an AIP diet, you need to be open to trying new things so that you don’t get…
