I love sauces and marinades, especially when they’re easy! This one uses Kale, so, it’s just one more way I’m sneaking in nutrient rich foods into my kids’ diet. #winning! So far, I’ve used this inside stuffed chicken, over a breakfast hash and later today, I plan on thinning some out with some more EVOO…

Words I love: Quick, cheap, easy, fast! I love making this for so many reasons, its comfort food goodness and my entire family loves it. I have made this numerous times for get togethers with non-AIP friends and they love it too! Sometimes AIP recipes can get a bit carried away with the ingredient list-this…

I mean, fried chicken…what’s not to love? Fried chicken is one of those staple comfort foods, but, it can go from perfect to dry quickly. By starting in a cast iron and finishing in the oven, it is the most sure fire way to make sure that it’s not only tasty, but, juicy! Another thing I…

This one just gets me in the feelers, it’s quick, easy, family friendly and toddler approved. Over the past couple of days I made a couple different versions of it using different leftover meats and additional veggies I had on hand. Both were delicious. I’m not a huge coconut fan, so, I like that I…

As I mention in the recipe portion…no, this isn’t AIP compliant. During the strict elimination phase, tomatillos, jalapenos and serranos all being nightshades are a no no. However, if you have reintroduced, or you are following more Paleo/Whole30, then, this is so wonderful and simple. Plus, as an added bonus, it doesn’t contain all the…

I have been experimenting with trying to make the perfect salmon cake for a while now…pre-AIP, I loved them! But, without eggs and bread crumbs…alas, I was constantly disappointed. Until now! These are very crispy and creamy. Don’t let the ugly photo fool you…I seasoned mine with sumac, which if you’re not familiar, tastes like…

Call it ice cream, call it sherbet, call it whatever you want, but, consider this one a keeper! Its light, refreshing and was a huge hit at our 4th of July celebration-where most of our guests were non AIP. Again, I am sorry for the terrible photo…but, all of us over here that are dairy…
