Some days are easier than others. You may have started the day thinking you would grill chicken to end up grazing popcorn and macaroni and cheese. That is how Sunday went. Admittedly, it was oil popped popcorn with no adds chemicals and my creamy homemade gluten-free macaroni and cheese with bacon add, but still not… Continue reading Best Barbecue Chicken in the Slow Cooker
I have been craving sweets lately probably in large part because I am cutting bread back out of my diet in preparation for thirty days of paleo goodness. No, this will not be a paleo-only blog. Yes, it will feature paleo recipes as it has from the beginning. I will endeavor to post non-paleo versions… Continue reading Paleo Chocolate Chunk Cookies
I eat a lot of bacon and eggs: fried, scrambled, frittata, omelette, quiche; on their own, in sandwiches, added to cheese grits… I could go on. I found myself wanting something different this fine Sunday morning, so I decided on poached eggs, but I didn’t feel like making Eggs Benedict of whatever variety came to… Continue reading Poached Eggs in Tomato Sauce
I created these lovely morsels two years ago as part of French cooking weekend at the Wildwood. I was still very Paleo then instead of the cheater I have become. Coconut Friands (Dessert, Brunch, Potluck, Paleo, makes 24) 4 lg egg whites, room temperature (you have a lot of egg whites left over when… Continue reading Coconut Friands (aka Coconut MiniMuffins for which to die)
The Pink Full Moon is upon us. Pink because the first flowers of Spring are popping up and spreading their joy. Some of you may be celebrating with house cleaning, long walks out of doors, or with ritual and feasting. No matter your method of jubilation, you might consider ending it with the consumption of… Continue reading Honey Cakes
Tofu can be a pain. If you want a scramble it is easy enough, but if you want cubes in your soups or squares in your stir fry, it needs to stay in one piece (of the size and shape chosen). I had friends coming for dinner on a work day to enjoy the company… Continue reading Tofu Three Ways
I enjoy making things by request. If cooking for those I love is a way to demonstrate this affection by providing them with sustenance, how better than by making something they are craving or for which they are nostagic. A couple of days ago Papa Satyr requested banana bread. I allowed my remaining bananas to… Continue reading Moist Banana Bread
Here we have my absolute favorite paleo bread product recipe: Paleo Biscuits and Gravy, for when you want to be grain-free and still indulge your need for comfort food. I leaned heavily on the Primal Food Blog with these, barely changing their “Primal Biscuit Recipe, Take 2” and using their paleo roux from their gravy,… Continue reading Paleo Biscuits and Gravy
Another goody from Pinching Paleo, are my Maple Bacon Waffles adapted from Ashley Holmes’ Paleo Belgian Waffles (Cook Like a Cavewoman). This is how to learn to cook really… find recipes that sound good, make them or adapt them, make note of what you liked and did not while you are honing your technique, and next… Continue reading Paleo Maple Bacon Waffles
Yet another Paleo bread creation that I am pleased with is the Paleo English Muffin. I was really missing them with their dense yet try texture when I was a Paleo woman and did my best to invent one that would stand up to the standard uses (Eggs Benedict, Egg Sandwiches), and while I did not… Continue reading Paleo English Muffins
