Pressure Cooker Paleo Banana Bread
Pressure Cooker Paleo Banana Bread! I bought this awesome electric pressure cooker called an Instant Pot. This thing is king of the kitchen right now! It pressure cooks, sautés, steams, slow cooks, ferments, and lots more! The ability I am most excited about is being able to make cakes and bread in it! I thought this was so neat!! Most of the recipes I found for bread or cake are not Paleo compliant so I had to come up with one of my own! I used this steamed banana bread recipe and substituted ingredients for Paleo ingredients. The results were AMAZING! This pressure cooker Paleo banana bread is dense and moist! I…

No Cook Fresh Cranberry Salad
No-cook fresh cranberry salad! This year we are not able to go home for the holidays so I decided to try to make a few of my mom’s Thanksgiving recipes Paleo! This recipe is one of our family favorites. Most people have some sort of cranberry dish on their thanksgiving table. Most of which are the canned, jello-like “cranberry” or a cooked cranberry dish. This cranberry salad is made with fresh ingredients and is served cold. It is sweet with a slight nutty flavor from the pecan. I actually eat it right out of the fridge. I find that this is better after it sits for a day in the…

Crockpot Salsa Verde Pork Loin
Salsa verde pork loin recipe! My friend was telling me about this super simple, delicious meal that she prepares for her family and I knew I had to try it! I used four ingredients, but you really could use only two and have it turn out fantastic! This would be an excellent main course for those who are pressed for time. It worked beautifully in my crockpot, but I am sure you could easily cook it in a pot on the stove on low. I added fresh, roasted green chilies and cumin to mine. If you would like to see the video about how to roast fresh green chilies CLICK…

Supreme Pizza Smoked Fatty!
Supreme Pizza Smoked Fatty Recently my husband bought a smoker and started to learn everything he could about smoking. For almost 5 weekends in a row we have had smoking parties and smoked every kind of meat we could think of. While on a few smoking sites we ran across fatties. Our imagination went wild with all the things we could stuff in ground meat and wrap in bacon. This is the first one we tried and it was a HUGE hit! This thing tastes just like a supreme pizza! I was really surprised how easy it actually is to put together! It takes a bit of time, but it…

Easy Paleo Mayonnaise!
Easy Paleo Mayonnaise Mayonnaise is one of those food items that I crave, but unfortunately store-bought mayo is usually made with canola oil and is not a healthy option for Paleo eaters! I was so worried about how long it would take or failing miserably that it was months before I even attempted to make mayonnaise! One day I decided to try it, assuming I would fail, and to my surprise it was so easy I could not believe I waited so long to try it! I found a recipe online and converted it to a Paleo version the best I could. [wp_ad_camp_2] Ingredients: 1 Egg yolk at room temperature…

This Avocado Chicken Salad is an ultimate summer salad and is so refreshing and delicious! Here is the recipe for the Avocado Chicken Salad we made: [wp_ad_camp_2] Ingredients: 1 whole avocado (Remove pit and dice) 2…

My Paleo transformation after six months!
My Paleo transformation after six months! My whole life I have struggled with my weight and health. There are so many diets, pills and quick fixes and I am sure that I have tried them all. When I was in high school I was athletic. Very athletic. I worked out between 3 and 5 hours a day. Then I grew up and moved out on my own. This meant cooking my own food, drive thru’s and partying. As the years went by I had two kids and I packed on the weight and my health started to decline. At my worst point I weighed 306 pounds. My feet ached, back…

Paleo Shepherd’s Pie
Paleo Shepherd’s Pie Ah, Shepherd’s Pie. Shepherd’s Pie, also known as Cottage Pie, is traditionally an English dish made with lamb or mutton and topped with potatoes. We changed it up a bit to fit our diet and found it to be equally as satisfying. Spices are key in this dish. The recipe below is really modest with the spices. If you are like us and LOVE spices and tons of flavor, experiment and add more! This dish looks really complicated, but I assure you, it is not. This really is a Paleo comfort food! It is still cold here in Montana and this dish really hit the spot for…
