Rocky Road Blondies

As mentioned in Hayley’s recent (donut) post, often we visit with her she (politely) requests Urban Poser’s honey-sweetened Marshmallows accompany the visit. Matt has some sort of magic over Jenni’s marshmallows and they come out wonderfully perfect and puffy each time. So when I was talking with Bill & Hayley about visiting for their Gather Release Party and I offered to bring something for their dessert table I knew exactly what to expect. I wanted to bring two things, so I also checked with Diane and Aimee (my travel companion) and was enthusiastically encouraged to...

Our 2013 Resolutions: Sugar Detox and No Spend Month

It’s new year’s eve. 2013 is just hours away. And our family’s working on spending the last of our holiday vacation together, as well as talking about how we’d like to begin next year together. Cole, our 7 year old, asked each family member what their new years’ resolution was at this morning’s family brunch. Wesley (2yo) nodded in agreement at our suggestion that he try to figure out this whole potty thing in 2013. Finian wants to learn to read. Cole says he’s going to focus on being happy, making friends and being a good brother. And then the kids...

French Toast Casserole with Cinnamon Bread Pudding

French Toast Casserole with Cinnamon Bread Pudding

Bonus! We’ve got a 2-for-1 recipe for you today. In order to make this French Toast Casserole you’ll need to first make the Cinnamon Bread. Then you’re essentially making a bread pudding that comes together to create the flavor and texture you’d find in french toast. The great news? It’s a perfect make-ahead food – so on special mornings when you’re busy or tired or feeling like the hair of the dog is in order (like New Years Day), you’ll have a relatively high protein, high fat food that feels like a special indulgence. We recommend you make...

Egg Nog Three Ways

So I may have mentioned this before, but I have some food addiction problems.  One of them is a terrible addiction to egg nog. Stacy and I often joke that if egg nog was in stores year round, I’d weigh 400 pounds. I chug the stuff, drink it by the quart and still desire more. Yes, I’m aware that this is no good for anyone, least of all me. But that stuff is really great. So much so, we want to use it in everything. Today, we present to you a TRIO of recipes using a simple dairy-free egg nog recipe. You’re welcome. So, why not make my own? It’s not that hard and it...

Our Christmas Wish List

I have exciting, breaking news for you, an Paleo Parents exclusive! Thanksgiving is past, and it is now December! That means the holiday season is here and some 91% of Americans and about  a quarter of the entire world will feel compelled to give gifts to each other! Here in the Toth-McCarry house, we have one resident enthusiastic Tiny Tim and one sighing Scrooge. You can guess who is who. You see, Stacy has never met a holiday tradition she didn’t want to adopt. She honestly loves waking up early for Black Friday shopping (link for those of the non-American persuasion).
