Last week I was down with the flu, at least I think it was the flu. Whatever it was, it was awful, and this time I really mean awful and not offal! Fever, cold sweats, then horrible coughing for days…. Just awful! But as with everything in life, I try […]

YOLO! I know when most people think of food and the term YOLO, they aren’t thinking about a restrictive diet and nomming on organ meat. It’s more like “I’m going to eat this bowl of pasta because…. YOLO!” Or “I indulged in way too much ice cream, but…YOLO!” Now I’m […]
I’m okay not eating desserts that everyone else can eat. I’m even okay watching everyone else eat these desserts in front of me. Seriously, I am okay with it, for realz. BUT when I perfect a treat that I CAN eat, especially an all-time favourite, I get pretty darn excited! […]
This recipe involves two things that I am kind of absolutely obsessed over: Plantains and the Instant Pot. I know I pronounced my love for plantains in my Chewy Plantain Cookie post, and my Instant Pot love in my Rosemary Curried Lamb Rib Stew post, so I won’t get all giddy again […]

I sent hubby to the store for a few beets and he came home with two five pound bags of beets! While thinking of beet recipes, I decided a dill beet salad would be a good way to use them up, because who doesn’t like salads and who doesn’t like […]
It’s important to have variety in your diet in order to get a wide range of nutrients, which is what AIP is all about, nutrient density. I can’t believe I was turned off by the thought of bone broth pre-aip. Once I started making it, I realized how flavourful it […]
I hope all my fellow Canadians had a great Thanksgiving! We were away at the hunting camp with my husband’s side of the family as we do every year on opening moose hunting weekend. It’s always nice to be tucked away in the woods, breathing in total fresh air, away […]
Ah comfort food! Simply thinking of the words “comfort food” takes me back in time to my childhood and I can smell the apple crisp baking in the oven. In my opinion, apple crisp is the ultimate comfort food. I have fond memories of enjoying it with my family. Doesn’t […]
These plantain cookies are the perfect treat and only need six ingredients! They’re also AIP, paleo, gluten, dairy and egg free! Before starting AIP, I knew what plantains were but I had never cooked or baked with them. I’m not even sure if I even had tasted a fresh plantain?! […]
