Berries & Cream

I don't know why I never did this before, but it has become one of my favorite dessert/breakfast items. It's super easy to make and takes only three ingredients! Maybe the reason I never tried berries and cream before I became Paleo was because I thought I didn't like berries. Now I know I have been missing out. A lot.  The best...

Cake Batter Ice Cream

This has to be one of my best dessert recipes yet. I mean it. What's better than cake batter? Obviously chocolate, but can you think of anything else? I can't. A few years ago, my family and I would go to this place called Ritter's. Except, they didn't serve ice cream exactly. They served frozen custard. If you've never had frozen...

Sticky Teriyaki Wings

Even if you don't eat meat, you have to try this recipe. I don't care if you use tofu, vegetables, or any other vegetarian/vegan meat replacement. The sauce recipe is to die for. Slightly sweet, slightly salty, and with a little bit of heat, these wings are a great change from the classic buffalo chicken wings. To be honest, I've...

Becoming a Writer

(I just realized it's been a horrible month for posting on the blog. :\ I don't mean to neglect you guys, really! I'll try to be better about posting in May.) Today I'm going to take a break from recipe posts and post one on writing. Not really on a specific topic about writing, just sort of babbling I guess. ;) From Google  I...

Bacon Wrapped Dates

This is probably the best snack you will ever have. Not to mention the easiest. If you do a Google search on "bacon wrapped dates" all sorts of links will come up. Most of them require you to put the dates and bacon in the oven, but they taste great even if you don't. When I have more time I think I'll try it, though. Now...

Paleo Cookie Dough Porridge

I was getting a little bored with my regular CoCo Wheats, so I figured it was time to change it up a little bit. That got me thinking about oatmeal and all the different flavors you can make with it. I decided to go with cookie dough. (For regular cookie dough oatmeal see this post.) And the end result was amazing. A hint of brown...

Vanilla Chai Iced "Frappe"

Chai tea is just one of those comforting drinks. One of those drinks that you could drink all day if you wanted. And there are so many varieties! Vanilla, cinnamon, coconut..... the list continues. I love chai tea hot, but on a wonderful 70 degree day like today, I wanted something cooler. I wanted it sweet like a fancy Starbucks...

Fajita Salad

For lunch yesterday I was in the mood for something Mexican. And I got to thinking about when I go to a Mexican restaurant and order fajitas. When they bring out this steaming hot plate of grilled peppers, onions, and meat with just the right amount of spiciness. Just thinking about it started to make me drool. So I knew that I was...

Fixing Major Problems: Step Two of Revising

Finally, after many months (or what feels like years) I have finished the first read through. And I am rejoicing! That is probably the most painful thing I have ever had to do. I just wanted to rush through it and start revising. But I couldn't. The most painful part was towards the end when I had basically figured out all the main problems...

No-Mayo Slaw

As the warmer weather draws near, I love having salads. Whether in addition to a meal, or as the main dish. They require little prep work and our probably one of the most versatile meals out there. You can even make salad without spinach or lettuce, such as, the lovely coleslaw. Most coleslaw recipes that I've tried have mayonnaise...

2 Ingredient Chocolate Pancakes!

Yesterday I meant to post an April Fool's Day post, but obviously that didn't happen. So instead, I come with a new recipe today! And trust me, it's a good one. Paleo pancakes are probably one of the hardest things to make. Either they're too dense, they never cook through, or they burn within the few seconds of cooking. But with two...
