Chicken Jicama Slaw
Anything “slaw” is right up my alley and this salad was slaw-de-licious. I was inspired to make this salad by a recipe sent to me by Michele L. who you might remember from this previous post. Continue reading
Hangin' with the Boys!
I thought I would start this post by sharing a fun picture of the Fragoso family hanging out together…..
It’s been a while since I have done a Day in the Life blog and a reader recently requested I outline what a typical eating day looks like for us, so here it goes! Continue reading
Today's Lunch
So, my site feels a bit foreign to me, and I feel as if I am intruding into someone else’s space! With the original format suddenly gone, I feel as if I have lost an old friend. Please, a moment of silence for the old Everyday Paleo…. With that being said, do not get used to how things look now, we are searching for a better look for my site and hopefully we’ll have a more user friendly version up and running ASAP!

After finally completing the recipe section for my book, which included cooking and photographing over 100 recipes in 3 weeks, I’m kind of tired of cooking…. But – we still have to eat, so tonight I made the simplest dinner that I could eek out and in fact it was so easy, it shouldn’t have tasted as good as it did. This was however an important reminder that when eating paleo it’s actually really hard to go wrong. Fresh veggies, meat, and fat is not all that complicated and one has to try pretty darn hard to mess up, especially when keeping it simple. Here’s a “It Can Be This Easy” meal that I hope you all enjoy as much as we did! Continue reading
This week in my CSA box from the farm co-op I belong to I received a TON (well about 2 lbs actually) of collard greens. I also happened to have a giant ham hock in my freezer – the last remaining piece of the recent 1/2 a hog that we purchased from our favorite local pig farmers. I have been wondering what the heck to do with the ham hock, and now that I had a bountiful amount of collards – I was suddenly inspired – Southern Style Collard Greens! This is a dish I remember having as a child when we took a trip in a rented motor home and traveled from CA to New York, stopping at various states across the way. Continue reading
First, I would like to announce the winner of the Name That Recipe contest for last weeks Lamb and Pumpkin Recipe. I let my 15 year old, Coby, pick the winner and after much deliberation and deep, deep thought – he decided on: Halloween Hash by Stefanie. Thank you Stefanie and thank you Coby for picking a great entry – I loved all of them!!
Now, on to the good stuff.
Before you started eating paleo, did food rule your life? It ruled mine. Continue reading
I had some left over Spice Rub Slow Cooked Chicken so I made myself a sandwich out of the leftovers for lunch today. No, I’m not kidding, and no I haven’t fallen straight off the paleo wagon back to my old Subway days, but yes – I made a big ol’ sandwich and shared it with my almost 3 year old (he’s getting so darn big!!) who kept slapping his leg and falling backwards saying, “Mom, this is soooooo good!!” Continue reading
