EVERYTHING (but the kitchen sink) SOUP
Holidays. A time for gathering with loved ones and stuffing our faces with anything and everything. It’s the most wonderful time of the year. And, also the most exhausting. Feeling run down and bloated, I resisted the overwhelming urge to order Blind Onion pizza and looked deep into my fridge for Paleo inspiration. Holy leftovers. […]
Mom’s Homemade Chicken Soup
Like clockwork, I’ve been hit with the common cold during Christmas Break. Bah humbug! Alright, alright …. I shouldn’t complain — really, this is the first I’ve been sick since last Christmas. There’s something about this time of year — the hustle and bustle of the holidays; being here, there and everywhere — it’s down […]

We noshed on all types of (non-paleo) sushi — this was a first for MeLisa, so it was ultra-exciting!! As always, we enjoyed […]
COCONUT CURRY PORK SAUSAGE with APPLE, CRANBERRY & GINGER stuffed into a CARNIVAL SQUASH
I recently strolled through Vancouver Food Cooperative, located in downtown Vancouver, WA. No sooner did I walk through the doors, I found myself doing the happy dance and hugging the store manager, Stacey Mortensen. I was thrilled to see many products I’d previously driven 20 minutes across town for! Vancouver Food Cooperative carries natural/organic/GMO-free products, […]
SWEDISH MEATBALLS & MUSHROOM GRAVY atop a bed of SAUTEED BROCCOLI & CAULIFLOWER with GRILLED PINEAPPLE
A few weeks back, I bought a couple of Paleo cookbooks from New Seasons. I LOVE cookbooks – I could get lost in them for hours – so inspiring!! I thumbed through the pages of Paleo Indulgences and a Salisbury Steak recipe caught my eye. Served with gravy? WHa? How does one make a Paleo […]
