Good and Good For You
As promised, here is the recipe for the Asian stir-fry I threw together to go with our Korean short ribs the other night. The thing I love about stir-frys (stir-fries?) is that they are the PERFECT thing to throw together at the end of the week when you have a bunch of odds and ends [...]
“I’m too busy to eat paleo.” This is something I hear constantly, and my favorite responses to a statement like this are recipes I have that prove that ANYONE has time to eat paleo. Yesterday I was in a MAJOR hurry, with about 15 minutes to prep dinner before heading to the gym knowing I [...]
I absolutely love artichokes, but let’s be honest, they can be a little bit of a pain to make. I used to never buy them, because I had a preconcieved notion that they took an hour to boil, and you had to slather them in some sort of mayonnaise to make them flavorful afterwards. Well, [...]
To me, there are fewer pleasures that prepping a meal early on a Saturday to be enjoyed at your leisure on a romantic Saturday night. I don’t make a ton of roasts, so I was pretty excited to experiment with Everyday Paleo’s “Smokey Roast” recipe that I saw last week. The result was a smokey, [...]

People often point to the oils as a great source of healthy fat – olive oil, coconut oil, avocado oil, walnut oil, grapeseed oil, etc. Paleo beginners often have never even heard of some of these products, and it can get a bit overwhelming [...]
DANGER: These cupcakes may accidentally cause you to eat the entire batch in 48 hours. I’m just warning you. It’s not normal how delicious these are. Now that you’ve been properly prepared….. NEXT WARNING: These cupcakes are definitley for the borderline paleo crew. Strict paleo-ites won’t approve of these – I barely approved of the [...]
My amazing CrossFit (not to brag and definitely NOT biased), CFSB, is full of people that follow the paleo diet to varying degrees. There are your die-hard, paleo plus kids that don’t eat nightshades and have steak for breakfast. There your 80/20 folks that love a good new paleo recipe and often accompany it with [...]
