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 …
Whole30 or Easily Adaptable
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 …
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. . .
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 …
It’s possible to make a big batch of sweet potato hash browns without babysitting them at the stove! My oven method mimics frying hash browns so you can easily make them for a crowd. Crispy Sweet Potato Hash After spending so many years trying to make hash browns on the stove, I finally figured out …
For someone who LOVES a good burger, I have a surprisingly small stash of burger recipes on my site. I’ve had an idea for an ultimate mushroom burger for a while now and this recipe turned out even better than I hoped!
This strawberry cobb salad was a hit with the bacon and candied nuts and strawberry balsamic vinaigrette. You can easily make it Whole30 friendly by using plain roasted nuts and compliant bacon!
Have you ever grilled melon? It intensifies and caramelizes the natural sugars and adds a little smokiness. It’s divine.
This recipe was originally an idea I had for my last book, but no matter how much flavor you add to them, steamed carrots are just…. meh. Roasted carrots? Way, way better.
I got such a great response from my Sweet Kale Salad recipe, I decided to do another knock off of the Taylor Farms salad kits found at Costco with this Paleo Asian Chopped Salad. This one is quick to prep and is Whole30 friendly, too.
Do you get into lunchtime ruts, too? Actually I know you do because I get asked a lot what I eat for lunch, and most of the time my answers aren’t super inspiring. But I’ve got an inspiring idea for you today, friends — 5-Minute Cheesy Zucchetti Bowl and a review of a gorgeous cookbook.
This Paleo Instant Pot Cheeseburger Soup is another family favorite that I updated, paleo-ized, and took for a spin in my pressure cooker.
I’ve had a chicken fajita soup like this on the brain ever since I posted The Best Chicken Fajitas. I thought if I took the flavors in that recipes and simply made a soup out of it, I’d end up with what I had envisioned. Nope. I ended up with a so-so soup. That soup …
Hello, friends! I took a little time off to recover from Christmas, and we made a last-minute trip to Utah to attend a funeral. Needless to say, I’m really happy that school resumed this week and we’re back into our regular routine. AND I’ve got some new I’ll be sharing shortly. Let’s talk about this …
This goulash recipe is reminiscent of a authentic Hungarian goulash with tender chunks of braised beef and a bright red paprika sauce. It’s cozy and comforting and the epitome of comfort food. It’s also a simple recipe and easy to make, too!
I’m usually a savory squash girl, but making roasted butternut squash with maple and my homemade chai spice was the best decision I made this Thanksgiving!
Have you tried Pan-Fried Green Beans with Bacon? It’s the ONLY way to eat green beans, really. The beans are crisp-tender and infused with the amazing taste of bacon – what could be better? It’s also just TWO ingredients (I’ll let you guess which two), a hot skillet for sautéing and you’re set! You’re going …
This delicious cauliflower puree is full of flavor and easily made in your Instant Pot! Serve it as a low carb alternative to regular mashed potatoes or a nutritious side dish alongside a roast or pork chops.
Here’s how to make a dry brine turkey — along with a flavorful herb butter for good measure! It’s so much easier than using a wet brine.
