Crazy for Kale

Posted by Matthew on Apr 18, 2013 in 2013, Featured | 57 comments

Don’t miss the end of the post, there’s a GIVEAWAY! One of our boys’ favorite vegetables is kale. I think it probably started when we made Kale Chips for Eat Like a Dinosaur, and then our oldest (a born leader) declared his absolute love for the vegetable. Since then the other boys have followed along like little ducklings in support of his declaration. I mention this vegetable often when talking about their favorite foods on the podcast, so when Hallie asked us to review her Crazy for Kale ebook and submit a recipe for round-up I was shocked to see that the only recipe I...

ELaD’s Frozen Waffles and other Naturally Green St. Patrick’s Day Recipes

Posted by Stacy on Mar 14, 2013 in 2013, ELaD, Featured | 27 comments

There are a few recipes in our first cookbook, Eat Like a Dinosaur, that we’re asked to share. A lot. Like, at least once a week someone wants to publish (or wants us to publish) on the web some of our most popular recipes from ELaD: Fools Gold Chicken Nuggets, Chocolate Chip Cookies, Rat on a Stick, Anytime Cookies, 50/50 Burgers and Frozen Waffles. Until now, only 50/50 Burgers were on our site. We’re not trying to be mean, but if we don’t hold some recipes hostage you guys would have no incentive to actually buy a book. And frankly we think 1) kids deserve a tangible...

Apple Plum Sangria

Posted by Stacy on Feb 25, 2013 in 2013 | 3 comments

The end is near! We’re starting to see a light at the end of the Beyond Bacon tunnel! This weekend we invited our local recipe testers over for a potluck of Beyond Bacon recipes – and I have NEVER seen food disappear so quickly at a potluck! The overwhelming hit at the party was our Savory Bacon Jam, which was brought as an appetizer with apple slices – something I never would have thought of, but was genius! Before you ask, the recipe will be in the book – apologies for the teaser but July 2nd is coming quick! I just love these type of events where people get to...

Easy Peasy Pancakes

Posted by Matthew on Jan 19, 2013 in 2013, Featured | 92 comments

I have tried for years now to get a handle on making grain-free pancakes. It’s a lot harder than it looks, truly, and no recipe has ever come out like regular wheat ones. Often you’ll find them too thick or too thin, too slow to cook or too easy to burn. Nothing is perfect like the original and that’s a shame. So what makes a real pancake? It has to be light and fluffy, full of little air bubbles that form while cooking. It has to be only slightly sweet; that’s what syrup and jelly is for. It has to be able to reach a golden or tan color in about the same time it...

Coconut Pecan Date Rolls

Posted by Matthew on Feb 24, 2012 in 2012, Featured | 19 comments

When we go to the movie theater, we often stop by Whole Foods first for some date rolls. They’re a favorite of our boys, and they know exactly where to find them at the store. If they start asking for processed foods while we shop, we often say “if you’re super helpful and well behaved, maybe we can get some date rolls before we leave.” They’re the perfect snack alternative over candy! Just sweet enough, just crunchy enough. The boys loved them so much, it seemed silly to spend 5 dollars for a few rolls when they are simple enough to make ourselves. And super...

Philly Shroom Burger

Posted by Matthew on Nov 30, 2011 in 2011, Featured | 7 comments

One of our favorite cities in America is Philadelphia. Now, granted, we’ve only visited and never lived there, but how can you compete with a city that features both this and this and this and her? Also, how can you not love a city that has so little shame that they boo Santa and proudly proclaim a municipal dish that is best served smothered in canned cheese food? Which brings us to the aforementioned “Philly Cheesesteak”. A personal favorite of mine, it is clearly not prescribed in the Paleo diet at all. Recently US Wellness Meats sent us some sandwich steaks. Rather than...
