Our BIG Valentine’s Giveaway

Posted by Stacy on Feb 5, 2013 in 2013 | 397 comments

I’m not really one for Valentine’s Day. To me, it seems like it’s only out to make single people feel lonely and couples pressured to spend money. That said, I can’t not love a holiday who gives me an excuse to eat chocolate. It also happens to be the week of my husband’s birthday and a long weekend, so when we’re not shoving paleo cupcakes in each others’ faces, we try to always get away to a Bed & Breakfast, drink wine in a hot tub and eat chocolates. So, as we plan our big date weekend we wanted to share some of our favorite Sweets &...

Calling all Paleo people! We’ve been nominated for Best Family & Kid Blog over at The Kitchn. If you enjoy our blog, please click the link and vote for us! We’d LOVE your vote – it helps spread the general idea that paleo can be done with a family in a healthful way! Such an honor ♥ If you, like me, JUST realized you have a party (or in my case two) to go to this weekend for The Big Game, then you’re likely scrambling to put something, anything together. Or maybe, even worse, you’re considering “treating” yourself because you just finished a new...

French Toast Casserole with Cinnamon Bread Pudding

Posted by Stacy on Dec 27, 2012 in 2012, Featured | 45 comments

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

Posted by Matthew on Dec 17, 2012 in 2012, Featured | 22 comments

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

Posted by Matthew on Dec 13, 2012 in 2012, Featured | 2 comments

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). Check out our...
