We had such an awesome time this weekend spending time with my sister and her family, hanging out in San Francisco, and playing, relaxing and just being. It was such a needed weekend of rest and we all came home rejuvenated and revived. John and I headed straight for the gym when we got home for a much needed workout and when we got home the entire family pitched in and made our Memorial Day dinner. Continue reading
This salad was the result of a combined effort by John and myself. It might sound silly but since John and I started eating paleo together and as often as we can, cooking together, we have added another dimension to our relationship that we did not even know existed. There’s something really cool about creating food as a couple and although most of my time in the kitchen is spent with the kids, I look forward to the moments that I spend with my husband even more.

Meat on a stick. ‘Nuff said.
I was at Leonardo’s, a tiny Spanish restaurant in Chico, CA. the other night. Not Mexican! Spanish! Some of you know the difference, many do not. Continue reading
It was mentioned in Paleo Talk 14 that I would finally get around to documenting and posting one of my food items. The first one I decided on is curry. Much of the information and ingredients are similar to Sarah’s green curry. We differ in a few of the prep steps and brands used so this will add another angle on how to make a super easy meal.

The Green is crisper and refreshing with strong Kaffir lime flavor. Continue reading

It’s been years since my husband has had homemade pancit and after talking about the dish yesterday we remembered how great my recent Sausage n’ Cabbage Noodle dish was and decided to try using the same method for pancit!

Is it really only Tuesday? I have crammed so much into the last two days that my body is screaming FRIDAY but my jam packed calendar is telling me otherwise. Look forward to a post that I’ll put up tomorrow with more details about my book – including an actual release date! Yes, I’m teasing you a bit but hopefully that means you will check in with me tomorrow for all the juicy details. Continue reading
There are endless possibilities when making paleo foods and the truth is, I enjoy how our food tastes now better than I ever did during our pre-paleo days. Nothing is better than fresh veggies soaking up delicious spices and tender bites of meat. Well; nothing food related that is… Today’s lunch was pretty much mouth watering from beginning to end and I hope you all enjoy this meal as much as we did! Continue reading
