RAW Raspberry Chia Paleo Cheesecake

To honor National Cheesecake Day I made an all Paleo cheesecake recipe. I think most of us secretly love cheesecake, but are afraid to have a piece. Whether it be for weight gain reasons, for dairy intolerance reasons, for gluten intolerance reasons, etc. — we are intimidated to enjoy a whole delicious, creamy, sweet piece all to ourselves. And that’s 100% understandable.… Continue reading RAW Raspberry Chia Paleo Cheesecake

They do such a great job at filling you up, keeping you satisfied, giving you energy, making you feel good afterwards (not bloated or uncomfortable), and at being incredibly delicious. So, Paleo is definitely my pick whenever I want to prepare a fun breakfast for my family on weekends or on special occasions; I’ll typically serve… Continue reading Paleo Almond Flour Waffles with Maple Syrup and Berries
