Chocolate Trail Mix Detox Cookies

Chocolate Trail Mix Detox Cookies

What do you call a ball of ingredients that’s packed with protein & healthy fat and missing the sweeteners that would make it a cookie? How do you tell people, “Warning, this cookie is not your typical cookie. Do not think this recipe will remind you of Toll House.”? I don’t know, no matter what I call this people are either going to complain I shouldn’t make cookies on a detox or that it’s not sweet enough – so, let’s just forge ahead anyway and encourage the nay-sayers to MYOB. The cookies are called Chocolate Trail Mix Cookies because...

The Healthiest Ice Cream EVER

The Healthiest Ice Cream EVER

I hesitate to call this The Healthiest Ice Cream Ever, because maybe someone’s going to make kale and bone marrow ice cream. But, as much as I’d give it a whirl, I doubt it’d please your palate – and your kids – the way this version does. Seriously, my kids refused to stop licking the spoon when we were making it. And then begged for it while we awaited the ice cream firming up. Then I told them it was made with a vegetable and no sugar. And they shrugged their shoulders and put their faces back into the bowls. So, there you have it. Picky eater? This one is a...

Paleo-Vegan Thanksgiving, take 2

Paleo-Vegan Thanksgiving, take 2

If you’ve been following our blog for a while, you know that we like to host holiday meals. Not only is it easier to not have to lug the kids around town on a holiday, but it ensures we can eat the food! Only complication is, and you already know this if you’ve been reading our blog for a while, my brother is a vegan. Don’t worry, I won the war and my ex-vegetarian mother is now primal ♥ Out of respect for him and because we want to treat him the same way we appreciate being treated, we attempt to make as many dishes as we can be vegan. Since we’re dairy-free,...

Apple Pie Balls: Nut-Free Larabar Wannabes

Apple Pie Balls: Nut-Free Larabar Wannabes

We thought we’d seen everything with this blog. But, when we posted the Banana Bread Balls we were quite surprised by the amount of traffic and comments we got from people excited about a replacement Larabar – especially with it being nut-free. Obviously, we make these because Finian and I do our best to stay nut-free on the autoimmune protocol. But there’s another reason quite a few were excited. Evidently, it was recently revealed that Larabars are owned by a company who donates money to the not-labelling-GMO-cause (Prop 37). And from what you tell us, quite a few of you...

Banana Bread Balls: Nut-Free Larabar Wannabes

For 3 months now, I’ve been nut-free because I’m only eating Autoimmune-compliant paleo foods. And for 3 months now, I’ve been missing the convenience and tasty treat a Larabar always offered me while on-the-go. A few weeks ago, however, I saw a Banana Bread Larabar at the store and a light bulb went off (as I stood there, eyes glazed over and frothing at the mouth longing for my long-lost-friend: the nut). With the magic of bananas, I could recreate this flavor of their awesome bars without nuts! No, seriously, I did. And they’re fan-freaking-tastic. If you were a...
