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, …
Low-Carb
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.
I have developed over a dozen delicious salmon recipes over the years because I’m obsessed with salmon! This dill salmon recipe is one of my top picks. It’s easy! It’s fast! And that dill sauce is to die for. Fish can be intimidating. I get it. It gets funky really fast and sometimes the fishy …
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. …
Did you know I wrote an Instant Pot cookbook? After developing over 150 Instant Pot recipes, that appliance and I may ride off into the sunset together. I know it inside and out, and I know how to get tender, juicy Corned Beef cooked in a fraction of the time it takes a slow cooker. …
This Thai Curry Chicken recipe is perfect for beginners! It’s easy to make, filled with flavor, and customizable for picky eaters. You will love this Instant Pot Curry Chicken New to Thai style curry? This recipe is perfect if you’re introducing Thai flavors to newbies! Thai inspired dishes are surprisingly easy to make and I’ll …
This Green Chile Chicken & Spaghetti Squash bake is PERFECT for meal preppers or those who like to prep components of a meal ahead of time. I love the addition of green salsa and a splash of paleo ranch to give it some creaminess. Avocados on top are a must.
I’m a little obsessed with sheet pan recipes. They’re easy to prep and have minimal clean up! This Thai Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner is just one of a million ways you can dress up chicken on a sheet pan.
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 …
Your Instant Pot Headmistress is here with a fab Thanksgiving recipe! Need a gluten free dessert that won’t use up precious oven space during meal prep? These Crustless Pumpkin Pie Cups are the perfect recipe! They’re also easy (whisk and pour!) and you can make them a few days in advance. The biggest setback in …
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 …
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 …
Today is a great day, my friends. Steve and I are leaving on a red-eye to New York City tonight to spend a few days there for an early anniversary getaway. I can’t tell you how excited I am. Summertime takes it toll on me REALLY quickly since I’m not one of those moms who …
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 …
This Sauteed Green Beans Recipe will change your mind on vegetables The first time I made these, I needed a quick side dish for company who was coming for dinner and started cooking from the hip. I don’t have a lot of green bean recipes (for obvious reasons) and I didn’t have time to cook …
I’ve been on a quasi keto kick lately and dabbling in some low-carb dessert action. (Mostly eating keto chocolate. Thanks Lily’s.) After such a great response for the White Chocolate Raspberry Fat Bombs I shared last year, I wanted to make another kind of fat bomb — a chocolate version. Keto chocolate treats are super …
