I love a healthy and tasty salad! One of my favorite salads is at a local Utah restaurant called Red Rock. They make a Warm Shrimp Salad that is so tasty! We made a dup of it with our tasty Lemon Dressing. The dressing is basically a one size, fits all, dressing! I haven't met a salad yet that this didn't taste good on. With its tangy, bright lemon flavor, it'll blow away any store bought dressing. It’s a dressing that you’ll use for so much more than salad. Sure, it livens up greens, but it also makes roasted veggies flavorful, adds excitement to grain bowls, and more. Sharing salad ... Read More

Our Thrive Market Favorites- Paleo Snacks
We have had a membership with Thrive Market on and off since they started in 2014. I originally got a membership when I started a Paleo Challenge with my CrossFit gym. I was looking for Paleo snacks and foods that were easy to buy and find, I like how Thrive organizes food by diet, making shopping easy. And I like how the prices are more affordable than places like Whole Foods, I have compared items we regularly purchase. I also really like Thrive Market branded food items too! I share my orders I get often on Instagram, and several of you requested a blog post of my favorite things we order. ... Read More
Easy Paleo Teriyaki Noodle Bowl Recipe
My mom is one of the best cooks I know (alongside Kevin)! The other day Kevin and I made a Paleo Teriyaki Noodle Bowl. After, I was talking to my mom and I told her I like how she makes them best and asked her to come over and show me exactly what she does. Like exactly, since she didn't have a recipe (it was just in her head). Of course I had to share it with you!!! This will be a meal you rotate weekly or monthly. It is a favorite! We made it all in one pan too, The Always Pan (I had gifted one to my mom, grandma, sisters and brother for Christmas! It makes such a good gift, especially for ... Read More
Go-to Brownie Recipe, Paleo and Gluten-Free with Printable
I have shared these brownies before, this time I have a printable! They are hands-down our families favorite brownies. Bonus they are gluten-free and paleo (if you leave off the little heart cookie!). Basically 3 core ingredients, which all of them are always on-hand at our home! Ella can make these on her own, so we have them regularly. And my mom who is known to say "is this paleo?" before she even has a bite, wanting to judge what it will tastes like…loves them! Around Valentines we grab a box of the heart cookies from Trader Joe's and add the little cookie to the brownie right ... Read More
Trader Joe’s Favorite PALEO Foods
A blog reader recently asked me to share my favorite paleo foods I buy from Trader Joe's! I thought that was a great idea. In the past I have shared a Trader Joe's Top 40 Favorites, but a lot of it I don't actually buy myself. It was a "Most Popular Trader Joe's Items" kind of list that everyone loved. But when I personally shop at Trader Joe's I stand there and read all the labels, some I know without even picking up that the item it isn't paleo. A pizza sauce for instance might have some sneaky sugar in it, even sausages and other foods you wouldn't think have sugar do! So if it is packaged ... Read More
Paleo Cranberry Chocolate Chip Cookies- Christmas Cookies
It is that time of year to start digging into those holiday recipes. I thought I would share a healthier option for you to add into your baking line-up! These are the only paleo chocolate chip cookies that we make in our house. And I mixed up the recipe, to create a more festive one, Christmas version. I turned one of my families favorite cookie recipes into a paleo version, combined two favorite recipes into one. How can you go wrong? If you are new to paleo eating- in its purest form, the paleo diet allows you to eat only those foods that humans ate when they first roamed the planet millions ... Read More
Paleo Stuffing- Healthy Thanksgiving Side
I am very excited about this recipe! It turned out way better than I could have imagined. I am a stuffing lover. I think it is just as important at the Thanksgiving Table as the Turkey! I have been eating the Paleo Diet for years now (and LOVE it) I thought I would always have to skip out on the stuffing. And my mom's stuffing is the best, this is the basic recipe she uses- but with a Paleo twist. Do you call it dressing? Whatever you call it- you no longer have to miss out on stuffing this Thanksgiving! And you will know it is made with healthy, natural ingredients that won't make you feel ... Read More
Paleo Double Chocolate Chip Peppermint Cookies- Christmas Cookies
It's never to soon to start making Christmas Cookies! Am I right? We would do a cookie exchange every year at work. Everyone would get so creative. We would have our warehouse guys vote on a favorite cookie, it would get competitive. I swear anything chocolate ALWAYS won. I am on the chocolate train too. So for our Holiday Recipe Series hosted by Ella Claire Inspired I thought I would share a Double Chocolate Chip Peppermint Cookie Recipe- yes it is Paleo of course. I am a Paleo Diet Enthusiast and alway love a chance to share that the Paleo Diet can be an easy and tasty lifestyle choice. You ... Read More
Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies
I can not believe I haven't shared this cookie recipe with you yet! They are my go-to Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies. Because cookies are one of my favorite treats and my husbands too. Especially warm out of the oven, they are hard to resist. If you can turn down a warm chocolate chip cookie right out of the oven you have super powers! Am I right?! So I found this Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe years ago and adapted it to fit what I like. I was craving something sweet but that also wasn't packed with white flour, sugar and butter. I was under the assumption that there was no such thing as a ... Read More
Pumpkin Crunch Cake- Paleo and Gluten Free Dessert
When you work with designers everything is elevated to a new level. At the store I used to work at we would do Christmas Parties, Baby Showers and all the parties and joke that they cost A LOT to throw, not because of the actual party but because we would use the party as a reason to redecorate! When I threw a baby shower I used the shower as a deadline to finish our basement kitchen addition. Why do we do that to ourselves? Now the decor was amazing but the food was typically something I would always remember. My wedding shower was in September and Karen who was hosting made a yummy Pumpkin ... Read More
