It is officially Thanksgiving week! A day (more like a week with all the leftovers) revolved around stuffing our faces until we can’t breathe, pure joy right there. Thanksgiving can be extremely tough for us paleo eaters with the 89,684,939,583 temptations, but I am going to show you how I plan to stay paleo on…
Protein Candied Cashews
Have you ever asked yourself, why? Why do you get up in the morning? Why do you wear the clothes that you wear or eat the foods that you eat? Why do you say and feel the things that you do? Well, recently I was able to spend a weekend surrounded by the most amazing…
Paleo Waffles
Well, my whole30 ended yesterday and I may or may not be typing this with a glass of wine in hand…. Overall, I feel my first whole30 went pretty well. It wasn’t a huge change of how I already eat so I was never miserable. I did however, have situations where I really wanted to…
Crockpot Chicken Fajitas
I have just one week of my Whole30 left! Honestly, I am ready for it to be over but, not for the reasons you are thinking. Like I mentioned last week, this Whole30 hasn’t been too difficult for me because it isn’t much different than how I usually eat anyways. I do miss the occasional…
Buffalo Chicken Casserole from Juli Bauer’s Paleo Cookbook
I am officially halfway through my Whole30! This week was better than the first with being so hungry between meals. I made my servings bigger and tried to implement more carbs. With my workout schedule and intensity, I function better on a high carb/high protein diet. My cravings are definitely under control, too. I probably…
Twice Baked Acorn Squash
Week one of my “Whole30” is complete. For anyone who didn’t read last weeks post, I am doing a Whole30 that I have altered to fit my lifestyle. I am already pretty well aware of what works for my body and what doesn’t and I don’t need to lose weight. I decided to do a…
Smoked Salmon Frittata
Today is the first day of my “Whole30.” I added parentheses because I am customizing it a tad. I am already well aware of the foods my body can and cannot handle. So, going into my first Whole30 I am focusing on eating whole unprocessed foods while still implementing protein supplements. My body functions better…
Green Machine Smoothie
I started my paleo journey about three years ago. I wasn’t over weight (bigger and fluffier, yes), I didn’t have food allergy on food allergy and nothing was physically “wrong” with me. I started eating paleo because I was curious. I was working really hard with fitness and my workouts and knew I needed to…
Paleo Apple Cinnamon “Oatmeal”
In the spirit of fall, I just had to post something fall like! Oatmeal was a big staple in my diet before discovering paleo. I ate it just about every single morning for breakfast. I will sometimes still throw it in when I feel I am pretty depleted of carbs, 80/20! I started reading the…
