    , ,

    Now that summer is almost over, it is time to get back into the swing of things. One of the things that I really enjoy about the fall and winter months is the number of crockpot recipes that I create. I really like to experiment with various types of foods and flavors to make unique… Read more

  • The Power Behind Small Steps

      Yesterday I got into a tug-of-war with myself. It was dark, cool and 4 a.m. I did not sleep well the night before and my bed was so comfortable. But I greatly needed to get up for my daily workout. I hate working out when I am that tired. I wanted to blow it… Read more

  • Paleo Chocolate Mini Tart

    , , ,

    Ever since my husband and I began the Paleo lifestyle more than 5 months ago, we have searched for ways to keep it fresh. Like I have said in past posts, my husband is finicky when it comes to lifestyle changes that involve food–if it is mundane or bland, he will abandon ship.  I have… Read more

  • Nutty Double Chocolate Banana Muffins

    , ,

    I really needed something sweet, yet healthy, the other day. Being on a Paleo type eating plan makes getting sweets difficult. Most of my food intake has consisted of whole foods that do not contain preservatives, additives, or sugar. But, these chocolate banana muffins were just what I needed. By using whole foods such as… Read more

      This Easter was a first for me. It was the first Easter that I spent eating Paleo and it also was the first Easter where I actually had to do all of the cooking. In years past, I had always had the pleasure of being with my extended family during Easter. The food was made by others… Read more

  • Coconut Thai Beef Stew

      Spring had seemed to arrive just a few days prior with the temperatures in the 70’s. But as out luck may have it, Chicagoland had a winter relapse. After all of that nice weather, we all thought that we had finally put one of the snowiest winters on record to bed for the year.… Read more

  • Couch to 5K…Again

    C B

    ,

    This morning at the gym, I decide to start the Couch to 5K program…again. Now, before you think that I don’t stick with anything and that is why I am starting again, let me explain. Last year at this time, when I was pregnant with my now 9 month old, I got into an exercise… Read more

  • Paleo Frozen Yogurt Pops

    , ,

    I am such an ice cream addict. Prior to starting my lifestyle change, I would eat ice cream almost daily. But I had to give all that up when I started Paleo. Regular ice cream is no-no on Paleo because it is loaded with non-Paleo items such as sugar, cream, milk, corn syrup or and… Read more

Here is an amazing hot wings recipe in the crockpot that uses coconut oil and Frank’s Hot Sauce. It is really important that you are using a hot sauce that… Read more

  • Crockpot Spicy Honey Mustard Chicken

    , ,

    I have never been big into cooking—until recently. I have noticed, as I am sure you have as well, that a lot of my posts center around food and/cooking. Being a stay-at-home mom during the week allows me the time to experiment with as many new recipes as I can create in a week. I… Read more
