If you haven’t noticed, I LOVE to cook – but sometimes I get stuck in the same old chicken salad rut because it’s easy, and I know we all like it. But today I needed an excuse to be in the kitchen, rather than venturing out into the 105 degree weather so the boys and I got a …
Grilled Chicken with Walnut Pesto Sauce and Warm Arugula Salad…
Pesto is an amazing sauce; it makes anything taste good from scrambled eggs to salad – so I have been working on a decent paleo version. I think I came up with a pesto recipe, that in my humble opinion is better then most pestos which are laden with parmesean – and it’s super easy to put together. Tonight I grilled some …
Hog Heaven!!
So, here is a recipe for the pork chops we made tonight – a recipe that my oldest son helped me come up with. They were fancy and fun but easy and so so good.
Fresh Salsa – and Everyday Paleo is Going on Vacation!!
If any of ya’ll have noticed that I have been a bit skimpy on my posts this week, well it’s because I’m already in vacation mode. The family and I will be heading off tomorrow to Mexico for a much needed week of rest and relaxation!! So, in the spirit of traveling to Mexico, here is …
Eating Paleo Gives You Wings

Giant Stuffed Mushrooms
I posted a stuffed mushroom recipe back in December but I will be the first to admit, that this one is soooo much tastier! Although a bit more complicated then my previous recipe, it’s well worth the extra effort and overall, is still not that difficult to make. My family had a blast making these …
Stuffed Avocados
Today I stuffed some avocados with a yummy paleo tuna salad for a change from our usual canned salmon
Seafood “Who Needs Rice” Jambalaya
My whole family likes it spicy. Even my two year old will slurp down curries and salsa with a smile. My oldest recently started a ritualistic competition with my husband to see who can eat two hot pickled peppers the fastest. It’s a pretty comical way to start our evening meal… I contribute my children’s spice tolerant palettes to …
Salmon Cakes with Homemade Ginger Mayo
After I made these yesterday I sent my husband a text message telling him that I just made the best salmon cakes ever. He replied back, “ever??” And my reply was, “EVER!!” Now that you have a glimpse into how truly boring my life is and how excited I get about the little things like really …
