Soup can be an appetizer, a snack, or a one pot meal. This dish can be all three. It is light yet hearty; warm yet satisfying. Loaded with veggies and protein, this soup is certain to please in cold or warm weather. The inspiration? A tomato soup with fish recipe […]
The inspiration for this dish? I am always trying to find new ways to prepare chicken. Chicken is such a delicious, yet affordable protein, and each cut of chicken can bring a completely different flavor. Chicken breast used to be my favorite cut of meat, but now I am finding […]
Cauliflower is one of the most versatile vegetables for Paleo cooking. I use it all the time to make variations of my Cauliflower Rice, but occasionally it is just fun to cut it up, dust it with a delicious seasoning, and roast it. Roasting vegetables is one of the easiest […]
