Paleo-Friendly Meals: Individual Meatloaf

I think I have a meatball addiction. Anything shaped and cooked into a little golf-ball sized sphere of meat makes me happy. So to break the cycle, I give you individual meatloaf. Yes, it is meatball like, but not round! So there, I win. Read on for the recipe. DSCF1356 (more…)

Paleo-Friendly Meals: Filipino Adobo Style Bok Choy

I absolutely love Filipino food – it’s so savory and delicious. When I was young, my Lola (grandma) watched me everyday and cooked chicken adobo at least once a week. The smells coming from the kitchen were intoxicating and drew me in – cartoon style, feet floating and nose following the visible aroma. I always look forward to chicken adobo over rice on the kitchen table. These days I’m avoiding rice but the flavors of Filipino adobo are so versatile they can be added to almost anything. In this case, I’ll share with you the wonders of Filipino adobo style bok choy!

Paleo-Friendly Meals: Fajita Burgers

I feel like I am forever cooking, especially on Sundays. I’m not complaining – because I love to cook and eat fresh food – but sometimes I exhaust myself looking for something new and yummy to cook. I’m pretty adventurous with my meals and don’t mind trying new things, but my mom is a different story. She’ll usually eat whatever I cook, but the following recipe is one of her favorites. It’s a dressed up version of a classic AND it’s Paleo-friendly. What more could you ask for?DSCF1288 (more…)

Paleo-Friendly Meals: Fried Chicken

There’s something so comforting about fried chicken. Crunchy skin…hot out of the oil…smuthered in hot sauce…mmmm. I’ve tried multiple Paleo recipes with gluten-free breading, but it never tastes as good as the real thing. So why try to duplicate it when you can make the next best thing? This recipe is gluten-free, breading-free, quick, easy and CHEAP! Huzzah! Read on for the full recipe.
