Featured Book:
Paleo Comfort Foods
by Julie & Charles Mayfield

I received this book more than a few months ago and have gone through it page by page and have tried at least a dozen of the recipes. It’s been a very handy resource in the kitchen, especially when looking for things to make my ever so skeptical and demanding kids. They always challenge me to make something that is either…

Featured Product:
Grass Fed Jerky Chews

I had given up hope on beef jerky a long time ago. Not only were most of the store bought versions not gluten-free, they also contained a pretty hideous list of ingredients that I wouldn’t even want to feed my…

Green Coconut Salmon & Cauliflower Rice
from Zenbelly

After a long night of fielding comments on Facebook from folks passionately defending their stance on (and support of) gluten-free junk-food, I’m worn out. I think my favorite comment was that I supported a “nanny-state” because I felt there was too much gluten-free junk food. I’m not quite sure how that works. As most folks [...]

Cinnamon Parsnips
from The Food Lovers’ Primal Palate

Parsnips are another one of those things that I never had growing up. To be honest, I didn’t even know what a parsnip was until I was in my 20′s. Now that I do know what they are, I’ve learned there are so many different and delicious ways to prepare them — it’s become somewhat [...]

Rosemary & Garlic Dumplings
(gluten-free, casein-free)
from The Spunky Coconut

When’s the last time you had dumplings? For most folks with celiac disease, it’s been a long time. While I grew up in Los Angeles, my parents and extended family are from the south and dumplings have been a part of family get togethers for as long as I can remember. It’s usually quite an [...]

Garlic Ginger Chicken
from The Food Lovers’ Primal Palate

More paleo greatness from Bill and Hayley of The Food Lovers’ Primal Palate. There’s nothing quite like a well seasoned and cooked chicken to make your taste buds sing. Along with using what Bill and Hayley refer to as “clean ingredients”

Cauliflower Soup w/Crispy Garlic Chips+White Truffle Oil from Eat. Live. Paleo.

Cauliflower is one of those things that I grew up absolutely despising, and for the most part I still kind of do. I can’t stand the smell of it and the taste of steamed cauliflower sends me running away covering my nose in disgust. But in the past several years, either my taste buds have [...]

“Rice” Pudding Paleo Style
(Gluten, Dairy, Soy, Corn, Grain, Egg, Sugar Free)
from Real Sustenance

This is one of those OMG, I can’t believe this is cauliflower moments. Rice pudding without the rice — who needs the rice when you can make something as healthy as cauliflower taste this good. For me personally, I’d swap out the stevia for some raw honey, but that’s up to you.  Everyone has their [...]

Paleo Friendly Grain-Free Everything Crackers
from Zenbelly

I love, love, love finding new blogs that I haven’t seen before and even better when they have so many great ideas for healthy gluten-free snacks (or in this case a paleo-friendly snack). Zenbelly is one such blog — it’s from San Francisco Catering Chef, Simone Schifnadel. While I don’t miss things like bagels or [...]

Sour Milk: Lessons from Scandinavia
via Nourished Kitchen

I eat yogurt nearly every morning. Along with my tea, it’s been a ritual that I’ve had for nearly 20 years. Back before my diagnosis of celiac disease in 1999 and prior to my interest in real food, I used to stick everything imaginable in it and more times than not, I wasn’t doing myself [...]

Sweet Potato and Parmesan Chips
from What’s Gaby Cooking

Back in June of 2011, I posted a recipe for Eggplant Chips with Cilantro Pesto from What’s Gaby Cooking, Simple Sassy Gourmet which were quite honestly some of the best vegetable chips that I’ve ever had. I’ve made chips out of just about everything, but the eggplant chip was near perfect. Here’s another chip recipe — this [...]
