Rosemary. What a lovely little piece of heaven. It’s one of my favorite herbs. Did you know that in Latin “Rosemary” means the “dew of the sea”? Apparently rosemary, in various locations, needs no water other than the humidity carried by the sea breeze to survive. How pretty is that? I knew rosemary was romantic.… Continue reading Roasted Rosemary Sweet Potatoes

Hearty Paleo Juice!
I’ve been craving beets lately. A whole lot. There is something about their redness and their composition that attracts me so much to them. If my body wants beets, it must mean it needs beets….right? Here are a few fun facts on beets: Beets have sodium, magnesium, calcium, iron and phosperous (You can’t “beet” that)!… Continue reading Hearty Paleo Juice!
How-To: Make Homemade Paleo Coconut Butter
All my past butter recipes have been nut butters. I think its time we switch it up a notch, wouldn’t you agree? As you have been able to tell by two of my most recent recipes, Paleo Chocolate Cake and Paleo Coconut Bread, I am sort of addicted to coconut. Yes, I admit it…its true.… Continue reading How-To: Make Homemade Paleo Coconut Butter
Sweet Potato Chocolate Cake & Coconut Coffee Frosting
Today my husband turns twenty-seven years old. Twenty-seven! What a great number. I love that age. An age where maturity has settled, possibilities are endless and there is still hope for big dreams. My husband is a dreamer, but also a doer. He is an amazing entrepreneur who has 10 business models in his head… Continue reading Sweet Potato Chocolate Cake & Coconut Coffee Frosting

Banana Nutella Popsicles
For no particular reason, I have been making a lot of different types of nut butters lately! I feel like my refrigerator has become a nut-butter jar collector. Probably housing seven different nut-butter jars. No joke; it’s straight up crazy. That’s a lot for our family of two, especially since my husband solely consumes a… Continue reading Banana Nutella Popsicles
Egg Salad
Planning or attending social events has been a bit of a challenge for me since I started Paleo…let me re-phrase, it’s been a bit of an adjustment. Usually one just eats whatever is provided at a party; foods that smell good or look pretty. One usually doesn’t really think of the ingredients that were used… Continue reading Egg Salad
Yuca Fries
The Yuca Root (a potato-like food) first originated in Brazil and Paraguay. Today, it can be found in various tropical regions such as ones in South America, Asia, Australia and Africa. Yuca is low in fats and protein. It’s a great source of Vitamin K, which helps the body with bone mass building. It is… Continue reading Yuca Fries
Paleo Rosemary Bread
I think it’s been 11 months since I’ve had a sandwich. Paleo says no grains, so I stay away from all bread. Except for my Paleo banana bread and Paleo muffins, of course. I just haven’t had the salty-tasting bread…you know, the normal kind. That’s pretty insane if you ask me. 11 months without having a… Continue reading Paleo Rosemary Bread
Carrot & Zucchini Muffins
I’m following a trainer program from bodybuilding.com. It is a three-month commitment and it’s hardcore. I love it. It’s my 3rd time around doing the same program. I don’t get bored repeating it, because every week is different. It’s pretty rad. And FREE! The program is threefold: workouts, nutrition and supplementation. This time around I… Continue reading Carrot & Zucchini Muffins
