Shrimp w/ Bacon-Delicata Cream Sauce on Caboodles

Recipe: Shrimp w/ Bacon-Delicata Cream Sauce on Cabbage Noodles

This was a quintessential Paleo meal: satisfying, delicious, and hearty. Serious shout-out to PaleOMG for the sauce recipe idea. It’s ingenious, really. I never would’ve thought to use squash to make a rich, dense, and creamy sauce. I’ve been addicted to delicata squash lately, so I was thrilled to find another way to serve it […]

Curry Meatballs with Tomato-Coconut Sauce

Recipe Shout-Out: Curry Meatballs with Tomato-Coconut Sauce

On Day 3 of my Whole30, I mentioned I had this dish for dinner, courtesy of Mark’s Daily Apple. I thought I’d give it a proper shout-out here and provide a few details of my experience. These meatballs were very good, and an excellent introduction to liver for someone squeamish with offal (namely, me). I […]

Not actual muffins. I tried to get a picture but I ate them all too fast.

Recipe Shout-Out: Sweet Potato Muffins

So…I can’t lie. I’ve made these twice. This week. Moist, dense, nutritious, and totally comforting. I’m waiting for some room to open up in my stomach now so I can have another one before bed. The oncoming fall season has put me into baking overdrive recently. I would put the brakes on it, but I’m […]

Pancakes shown may not be actual Sweet Potato Pancakes.

Recipe Shout-Out: Sweet Potato Pancakes w/ Maple-Pecan Butter

So to answer the throngs who begged to know my fueling secret for such a strenuous race as the Warrior Dash, here’s what I had for breakfast that morning that propelled me to victory, thanks to Health-Bent. Okay, so there are no throngs. And no victory, other than a smug personal satisfaction. But here’s a […]

Here's a Flat Iron steak bathed in Beer Marinade with grilled green onions on top.

Recipe Shout-Out: Beer Marinade

If you’re a purist, this recipe won’t float your boat. Me? I’m a Primalist, so things like beer and the random tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce don’t trouble me. So if you’re free of any major reactions to these sorts of things and are willing to relax a bit, I can share with you the best […]

Damn Fine Chicken

Recipe Shout-Out: Damn Fine Chicken!

Oh yes. You heard me. With a title like that, how could I resist? Thank you, Nom Nom Paleo. That is indeed some damn fine chicken. Sorry for the one silly photo, but we were having camera malfunctions that night. Of course, I can never leave well-enough alone, so I had to tamper a bit. […]

Apricots

Recipe Shout-Out: Apricots with Basil-Goat Cheese and Almonds

Monday’s recipe was a Shout-Out, so I thought, “Why not make it a Shout-Out week?” I’ve been trying all kinds of fun stuff lately, and there are definitely some stand-outs. So if you haven’t come across these and tried them yet, you should. This appetizer is gorgeous, simple, and rave-worthy (here). Sunset Magazine suggests locating […]

Grilled Tuna Salade Niçoise

Recipe Shout-Out: Grilled Tuna Salade Niçoise

This one is just too amazing to keep to myself, thank you Epicurious.com (here, and P.S.—Be sure to click on the link in the recipe to “boiling salted water” and read the reviews there). I make this at least once a summer when all of this is seasonally available at my Farmers’ Market. And surprisingly, […]

Grilled Pork Chops w/ Mustard-Herb Sauce and Sweet Potato Fries

Recipe: Grilled Pork Chops w/ Mustard-Herb Sauce and Sweet Potato Fries

I confess. The sauce recipe is from Mark Sisson’s The Primal Blueprint Cookbook, with a few minor tweaks. It looked too good to pass up, and besides, I was looking for something new for my pork chops. But I gave it my own spin by using it as a sauce rather than a marinade. I […]

Primal Hot "Cereal"

Recipe Shout-Out: Primal Blueprint’s Primal Hot Cereal

Or non-cereal. Cereal-approximation. “Cereal.” Noatmeal? You get the idea. Mark Sisson’s and Jennifer Meier’s new Primal Blueprint Quick and Easy Meals cookbook is out and I’m loving the creative breakfast offerings. The Primal Hot Cereal is a wonderful morning option when you’re tapped out on eggs. This happens to me often, and usually, I just […]
