Today is a special day at the Lewis’ home. So many exciting things happening….yes, it is a Monday and Mondays are usually dreadful to me, but there’s something special about today that makes this Monday not so shabby. For one, I am switching up workout routines (yay!). I’ll be starting today a less hard core… Continue reading Paleo Green Smoothie

Salmon Parsley Patties
Living in Boise Idaho I am limited to getting my hands on good fresh fish. Yes, we do get fresh river fish, but it sort of isn’t the same. I usually just end up guying frozen fish or canned fish (tuna and salmon). Don’t get me wrong, I like having these options too (sometimes you… Continue reading Salmon Parsley Patties
Cilantro Beef Burgers
Lately I’ve been really fond of protein. I think it’s because I highly appreciate all the healthy fats different meats have offered me on the last couple of weeks. When you’re working out ever day (high intensity workouts), working on marketing projects, and cleaning and cooking a bunch, you get energy drained. Carbohydrates are our… Continue reading Cilantro Beef Burgers
How-To: Make Homemade Almond Flour
This is going to save you so much money while Paleo-ing! I am super excited for you! It is so easy; you will probably never ever buy already packaged almond flour again…ever! A regular Bob’s Red Mill almond meal/flour at the store costs you $11 a pound, a pound! That is a lot of money,… Continue reading How-To: Make Homemade Almond Flour
Patacones (like Plantain Chips, but better!)
There is nothing like our senses to bring back crystal clear memories. And for some reason, smell, sound, and taste seem to do the trick quite effectively! These three seem to trigger some sort of chemical (or so I think) reaction in our brains that brings back perfectly clear memories in a matter of seconds…just… Continue reading Patacones (like Plantain Chips, but better!)
Beef & Veggie Patties
Our family has a very planned out monthly budget. My husband and I have thought of all the expenses we could possibly have in a month, gave them a dollar value, and added them to our Mint.com account to keep us accountable and in check ;). It is good to budget. It saves you from going… Continue reading Beef & Veggie Patties
Banana Berry Ice Cream
My husband and I were obsessed for a while with, wait for it….frozen yogurt! It is sooooo not Paleo, but we still loved it. It was one of those things where you wonder if they add some sort of addictive drug to it, because you kept craving it and craving it non-stop. At least we… Continue reading Banana Berry Ice Cream
Tuna Guacamole
One of the things I miss most about living in Ecuador is the availability of cheap produce…and the ease of produce purchase. While stopping at a red light, you could buy 25 oranges for one dollar, 5 mangoes for a dollar, or 15 tangerines for a dollar. All with just rolling down your window. Street vendors come… Continue reading Tuna Guacamole
Simple Grilled Chicken
I HAVE to eat grilled chicken breast when I want to feel like I’m having a super lean/healthy meal. Everything else seems like it’s some sort of a cheat meal to me. Don’t ask me why…saying this out loud even sounds crazy. But it’s true. That’s how my brain works. It might be the fact… Continue reading Simple Grilled Chicken
