After writing two cookbooks with a total of 27 (!!) recipes for pulled meat (and five BBQ sauces) in both books, I thought it was rather sad that I didn’t have an Instant Pot Pulled Pork recipe on my site. A total shame, right? It’s a classic recipe that everyone should have in their collection. …
Today is Steve’s birthday. The big 4-0, people. Steve’s the kind of guy who embraces stuff like that. I embrace it, too . . . on him. I like how his hair is on its way to be salt and peppery just like his dad’s. He’s lucky to have a full, thick head of it, …
I have this great friend named Kristi. She has been a reader of my blog for at least 9-10 years. And we even met in person once! (I happened to be near where she lived once so I totally knocked on her door at 10:30PM like a creeper. And she still likes me.) Kristi has …
If you make anything I post this summer — it has to be this grilled chicken recipe. Actually…. I’ve got another recipe in the pipeline I could say the same thing about. But first, make this. This chipotle-lime marinade is SO SO AMAZING. It goes perfectly with the fruity salsa on top! Yeah, you could …
I realize that it’s late May and soup probably isn’t on your mind.
As much as I love throwing a burger on the grill with some wild toppings, I sure don’t have a lot of burger recipes on my site! Note to self: create more burger recipes.

One of my favorite easy things to make on a weeknight is a sheet pan dinner. I almost always have some kind of pre-cooked sausage in the fridge (Aidell’s is our favorite!). This Quick Sausage & Veggie Sheet Pan Dinner can be eaten alone or over salad greens or as part of a rice bowl. …

This easy, Thai-inspired sheet pan meal has chicken & veggies that cook up in a super easy citrusy marinade. You can serve it as is (Paleo/Keto/Whole30 friendly!) or with some freshly steamed Jasmine rice.
Remember when I asked you guys if you wanted a Valentine’s treat or easy dinner ideas and you said “EASY DINNER IDEAS!” and then I posted some gorgeous beet brownie bowls which would have been perfect for Valentine’s Day, but I didn’t even get the post up until AFTER Valentine’s Day? *facepalm*
Hey, it’s been a while, hasn’t it? Between moving out of state, the holidays, and setting up Steve’s new chiro office (We’re still not done yet. Ugh.) I’m just about burned to the ground. I’ve been in a weird place lately — a little restless, somewhat in a SAD funk (Boise, why are your skies …
The biggest setback in making a paleo, low-carb, or keto pumpkin pie is the crust. So, let’s ditch the crust. The filling is where it’s at anyway, right? And who could say no to a pumpkin “pie” topped with toasted marshmallow fluff? The answer is NO ONE.
Well, hello there! I’m popping back in to share some keto Thanksgiving recipes to make on the big day! We’re having dinner with some friends who also want to keep things low-carb, so I’m thrilled to pull some of these dishes to share. These are also paleo and gluten/grain-free. You could also use these if …
Last Wednesday was our 15th wedding anniversary. No, this isn’t a cake I made to celebrate. It’s actually the cake I made for my birthday a month ago. But just pretend it’s a sweet little anniversary cake for now.
This Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl recipe is in partnership with Sprouts Farmers Market. It’s no secret that we’re big fans of sushi rolls and sushi bowls around here. When poke bowls became trendy, we found a local place and gave it a try. Let’s just say it’s a good thing that particular place is across …
If you’re wondering if dill pesto is just basil pesto made with dill…. you’re right. I made some one night to serve with a big plate of grilled vegetables and loved it SO MUCH. I had planned on posting the whole thing as one recipe, but as I was using the leftover pesto in different …
Steve and I went to New York the first week of July and ate ourselves silly. We made a few trips to the gelato stands, and I totally fell in love with the pistachio gelato. I had to come home and make a cleaned-up Dairy Free Pistachio Ice Cream. (Or “mustachio”, like my 3-year-old calls …
I feel like I created a unicorn here with this grilled eggplant recipe. It’s easy, quick (even quicker if you make the ricotta ahead of time), doesn’t require an oven/stove (yay, summer grilling!), and is paleo, low-carb/keto, AND vegan. The fact that it’s vegan was totally an accident. If you’ve spent more than 5 minutes …
Last month while we were in Idaho, we went to Noodles & Co for dinner. I was happy to see that they offered zoodles as a replacement for pasta in most of their dishes! I tried their Thai Green Curry Zoodle Bowl and loved it so much, I whipped up a copycat version to make …
I’ll get to this amazeballs roasted salmon in a second. If you’ve been hanging around here for a while you’ll know a few things about me. . .
I can’t tell you how excited I am about these paleo cookies. AND the cookbook it came from. Normally I’m not a huge fan of paleo chocolate chip cookies because the texture is usually way off, which makes me sad — particularly because chocolate chip cookies are my favorite. This recipe is super, though — …
Pad Thai has been on our family’s favorite dinner list for a couple of years now, and the kids always do a happy dance when they find out I’ve made it. I’ve been meaning to test out a paleo pad Thai on them and just did it recently. Only one of my kids likes zucchini …
