Crumble/Crust What I love about this recipe is that the crumble and the crust are the same thing! You make one big batch, and then use 2/3 for the crust and the remaining 1/3 for the crumble on top....

Only 5 Ingredients What’s better than a tasty little bite? Well, a tasty bite that is super simple to make and only has 5 ingredients! That’s what! You will recognize and probably have on hand all 5 of the ingredients if you have a pretty well stocked Paleo pantry, too. The Toppings We are SUPER lucky to live in the same town as the folks over at Jem Organics, and we get to enjoy all their glorious nut butters often!...

We all know that chicken with your basic seasonings can get a little boring. It can be hard to come up with new ideas for chicken dinners that are satisfying, keep dinner interesting and bring new flavors to your plate and table. But there’s really no need to serve up another boring chicken breast and side of veggies for dinner. Try out this balsamic honey mustard chicken for a new chicken dinner recipe to add to your recipe box....

The flavors of this dish are so perfectly balanced, no one will ever know that you made this chicken and artichoke with capers easily with only about 10 minutes of active cooking time. Shhhhhh – you don’t have to tell anyone either. We decided to go with boneless thighs for this recipe for the extra flavor and ability to cut them up to mix with the rest of the ingredients....

Smoky Flavors We love that these chipotle turkey burgers are a little different than your usual burger. Not only are they turkey instead of beef, but the chipotle seasoning adds a smokiness to the turkey, and combined with the garlic, it is quite delicious! We made a super easy guacamole to go on these burgers, and it is the perfect creamy topping to go with the smoky and slightly spicy burger....

How do you make egg-free muffins? I’ve been eating eggs again while I’ve been pregnant, but for the couple years prior I had stopped eating them. This recipe was born out of my desire to have something that felt like a bakery-made muffin, but in a way that I could enjoy it. I use coconut butter and applesauce to act as binders and give the texture and consistency of something baked with eggs....

For the stuffing, you’ll sauté some diced bacon, shallot, garlic, mushrooms and broccoli. It will look about like this: Next, get your chicken ready for stuffing by slicing the breasts open (but not all the way through) with a small knife so the two sides lay flat but are still connected in the middle. Spoon the stuffing mixture onto the chicken breasts, fold over the sides and tie everything together with the butcher’s twine like this:...

Do You Instant Pot? We held out on getting an Instant Pot when they first started to gain popularity because we were pretty satisfied with our Crockpot and slow cooking. I mean what’s not to love about the Crockpot, right? However, we passed up on the Black Friday deals for the Instant Pot, and then regretted it for an entire year! Ha! So, last year on Black Friday it was our main priority....

Quick + Easy If you haven’t noticed…I’m a lazy cook. It’s true. I don’t like to spend THAT much time preparing a meal. Or if I do, it better put some leftovers in the fridge to cut down on cooking time another day. Well, these pork ramen noodles are both quick + easy AND make leftovers! You’ll be enjoying this meal in 30 minutes and have some in the fridge for lunch or another dinner....

Get Your Spiralizer Out I’m just going to get this out of the way…if you don’t own a spiralizer yet, you should definitely consider investing in one! They aren’t too expensive and don’t take up much space either. It’s a different way to enjoy veggies. In this sheet pan crispy vegetables and pork recipe, the veggies get spiralized to turn them into “noodles”. Spiralizing is quite easy really, but some veggies are easier than others....

Gumbo 101 Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, I don’t feel like I really had much exposure to gumbo. It wasn’t something my mom made for us, and there aren’t a ton of restaurants that serve it. I have to admit though that I feel like I was missing out! I had no idea how flavorful and fun gumbo is! If you’re less familiar with gumbo like me, it is a soup that is filled with so many goodies....

How to Cook Meatloaf on a Smoker Follow these simple steps to get the perfect smoked meatloaf. Need a side dish? Check out this listing of healthy BBQ sides! The Smoked Meatloaf Glaze I usually don’t like a glaze on my meatloaf. It brings back memories of overcooked meatloaf with ketchup slathered on it. When meatloaf is smoked, it already has a bunch of savory and smoky flavor, so a glaze is really optional and just adds a nice tangy crust to the meatloaf....

Quick, Easy + Real Food I’ve always had a bit of a sweet tooth, and I think there is always room for a little treat. That said, the actual form of treats I enjoy now are quite different than what I would have enjoyed several years ago. Now, I love to make my treats at home so I can use real food ingredients, and I love goodies like these baked pears because they are super easy to put together and only bake for 25-30 minutes....

Making gluten free lemon blueberry muffins To make these lemon blueberry muffins gluten free, I used blanched almond flour and tapioca flour. This keeps them grain free and paleo friendly as well. Just make sure to use blanched almond flour, versus almond meal. Here’s why. It’s finer and lighter and results in a fluffier texture.It will give your muffins the yellow, lemony looking color. If you used almond meal the muffins would be more of a brown color....
