Brussels sprouts or brussel sprouts?! However you ultimately spell the word, it’s hard to deny that this delicious Brussel Sprouts with Apples and Bacon side-dish is truly the perfect one-pan dish. It disappears quickly because everyone loves the flavors of the savory brussels sprouts with salty bacon and tangy apples. When you live in Alaska,…

Vegan Salted Caramel Frappuccino
When Go Dairy Free asked me join their summer recipe contest and develop a recipe using one of So Delicious Dairy Free’s nut-based or coconut-based ice creams, I knew instantly I wanted to use the cashew-based Salted Caramel Cluster ice cream. It’s my absolute favorite! It’s smooth, creamy, and filled with sweet ripples of salted…
Paleo Vegan Double Chocolate Protein Cookies
If these Paleo Vegan Double Chocolate Protein Cookies look somewhat familiar to you, it’s because they are the chocolate version of my vegan, Paleo, and nut-free Protein Packed Monster Breakfast Cookies. That recipe is one of the most popular recipes on my website, and is definitely a family favorite around our house. The girls love…
Smoked Salmon and Veggie Frittata
Darn autoimmune diseases. They totally messed up my exercise routine last week. I was so disappointed! It is such a battle when my mind is willing and able, but my body is not. 🙁 It all started with exhaustion, but when the pain set in at the bottom of my spine and I was overcome with horrible nausea, I…

Low carb cookies without the guilt! These Sugar Free Macaroons are totally sugar free, sweetened entirely with stevia.

Paleo Double Chocolate Mint Cookies
Rich chocolate meets peppermint for the ultimate Paleo indulgence! I originally developed this recipe for Paleo Double Chocolate Mint Cookies about 2 years ago. Between my SIL and I, we’ve made them numerous times for get togethers, birthdays, camping trips, and various holidays. We’ve stuffed them with homemade marshmallows, and even used them for Paleo…
Rosemary Garlic Ghee with Smoked Sea Salt
We recently had a very good friend over for dinner. He lives out of town, so when he visits it’s always a special treat. He’s not related by blood, but he’s family. 😉 Prior to him coming over (let’s call him “J”) AJ and I were trying to think of what to make for dinner….
Vegan & Paleo Fudge Tracks Ice Cream
Creamy vanilla ice cream + rich & decadent hot fudge sauce + chopped almonds = pure bliss. Seriously. You just can’t go wrong with vanilla and chocolate. I’m very much an emotional eater; I’ve always been one, although I’ve curved it a lot over the last several years (or attempted to). Some days though, despite…
Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies
These Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies are my favorite cookies. They are crispy on the outside, yet chewy and soft on the inside. I make these for my family when we want a treat or a pick me up (I may have even let my girls have 2 for breakfast the other day… but I won’t confirm…

Lemony Cedar Planked Salmon with Garlic & Dill
It’s been a busy weekend for us, filled with lots of errand running, cleaning, reorganizing, and furniture shuffling. Abbi’s birthday is coming up soon, so as an early birthday present, we got rid of her toddler bed and upgraded her to a twin bed with a new comforter/sheet ensemble. When Abbi saw her new bed…
Save Money & Make Your Own Roast Beef Lunch Meat
Yesterday I posted this picture (seen below) on Facebook of a 5 pound beef bottom roast that I cooked to use as lunch meat over the next few weeks. While I knew I would get a response from you, I wasn’t expecting the overwhelming response I received. Many of you asked for my recipe, so…
Dairy Free Pumpkin Spice Coffee Creamer (Vegan/No Sugar Added)
I normally don’t take creamer in my coffee. Well, at least not anymore. I used to. Up until I changed my diet and couldn’t find the right sort of dairy free creamer substitute. I tried everything from dairy free coffee creamers to canned coconut milk to any and every dairy free milk under the sun….
Zucchini & Sweet Potato Hash Browns
I fell in love with my husband over a skillet of breakfast hash. Okay, honestly I was already in love with the man, but some of my favorite memories of us in our early years include sharing a breakfast skillet at a local diner. The diner was known for their huge breakfast skillets, and would…
White Cioppino with Kale (Seafood Stew)
It might not be officially fall, but it feels somewhat fall-ish here in Alaska. The temps have dropped, the leaves are falling, and I have the sudden urge to make Dairy Free Peppermint Hot Cocoa (a stevia sweetened version of it anyways) and wear my goose down vest. I’m sad to have to say goodbye…
Mashed Cauliflower with Roasted Garlic & Chives
Several weeks ago I was checking out at the grocery store when the man behind me was inspecting the goods in my cart and says, “Wow, you eat really healthy; you’ve got a lot of produce there.” The man went on to tell me he owned a farm, which to my surprise was located within…
