sourdough maple bacon donuts

DONUTS!!! I don't know about you, but I haven't enjoyed one in a long time (until now, that is). Frankly, the way I feel after eating regular gluten fried in crappy (ya, I said it) oils just isn't worth it. But everything's changed now that we've made our own sourdough, avocado oil or lard-fried donuts [...]

finger lickin’ good crispy roasted chicken

*old post, but updated recipe - it was fun reading this back from 3+ years ago, pre-babe, pre-huge life changes, but still pretty dang happy and enjoying the outdoors* What a Sunday we had yesterday! Nothing makes me happier than getting outside to play and explore in nature with my friends, family, and pups. And [...]

coconut tahini stir fry

By | 2018-01-14T17:27:28-08:00 January 11th, 2018|Health, Marinades and Sauces, Pastured Meat, Recipes|

*Note: this is an old recipe that I decided to revamp because we've fallen deeply in love with this one all over again this past week. Dinner done in less than 20 and flavor that is to DIE for. My husband keeps asking for it, and I keep using the coconut tahini sauce on E [...]

quiche for all seasons

By | 2017-04-23T15:36:48-08:00 January 22nd, 2017|Breakfast, Health, Nutrition, Recipes|

This year is off to a crazy, albeit awesome, start, and I am taking my clean eating with me. Busy days are no excuse to let food quality go to the wayside. In fact, the busier life gets, the more important it is to eat nutrient dense foods because they keep energy levels high, mood [...]

super easy squash and kale soup

By | 2017-01-08T14:03:17-08:00 February 7th, 2016|Autoimmune Paleo, Recipes, Soups, Salads, Sides|

I frequently discuss the importance of real/whole food as the source for all of the nutrients we need to heal, perform, and thrive. But one of the issues many people seem to face when it comes to getting all the needed nutrients is that it can be daunting to eat a giant bowl of greens or [...]

beef and bacon chunky pumpkin chili

For me, preparing food truly is a love language. This recipe is a perfect example of that. Making a meal at home for yourself and/or the ones you love goes beyond saving money or eating clean; it allows the opportunity to nourish on a deeper level, no matter how fancy the meal we make. This [...]

inflammation busting turmeric bacon chili

How many of you have tried my chunky chili recipe? Of all my recipes, I have gotten the best feedback from this one. People seem to LOVE it, and I have to admit, I don't blame them; we do too. It's been a staple at our house every week (the ones we've been home, at [...]

shaved brussie bacon salad

By | 2015-04-01T08:21:40-08:00 February 8th, 2015|Recipes, Soups, Salads, Sides|

This is a good one, a real original. What we've got here is a cool, crisp salad that works well in winter, filled with many of the flavors from my bacon apple nut brussies (a real hit with you guys), but with a unique twist. Brussel sprouts and apples are in season right now, and I just [...]

walnut butter bacon apple omelet

I can't think of any better way to start this blog post (a post celebrating three of my favorite things and three of my favorite farmers) than with a story for you guys. So here goes... I'm standing in line to buy some of the most delicious organic apples (that I have picked from the [...]
