As we watched the Summer Olympics of 2012 unfold these past couple of weeks, I couldn’t help but be moved by how inspiring the athletes are. Inspiration is a big thing around here – it’s engraved on a welcome message at our front door, it’s the motivation behind this site, and it’s what keeps us […]

We love rice, but since we’re (mostly) grain-free, I went on a search for recipes that would satisfy us without giving up the texture of rice that was key to some of our favorite dishes. There are many versions of cauliflower rice online, but I especially loved this version. This recipe is adapted from GirlmeetsPaleo […]

As someone who is allergic to cow’s milk, I haven’t yet found a good butter supplement that I liked the taste of. I have tried Ghee in the past, and whatever brand I tasted was just horrific, so I assumed all Ghee was gross. Apparently, I was just unlucky in my first attempt, because Pure Indian’s Ghee […]

Thanks to a recent gift from my parents, the fam and I are enjoying some delicious fresh juice on our new Jack LaLanne juicer.  Jack Lalanne was known for his incredible health and endurance and was one of the early pioneers of the benefits of exercising, eating right, and yes, juicing. He’s famous for swimming 1 1/2 miles in […]

Since we’re grain free around here, I don’t often enjoy a slice of toast or something equally as fun to put a jam on, however, this is a great complement to meat and fish, and to those of you who are much better bakers than I, it would be perfect on your favorit coconut or almond flour pastries or […]

I remember as a kid my parents would spread the Sunday paper out on the kitchen table and go through it looking for coupons and discounts to clip and save. My mom had a little accordion folder that she kept them all in, categorizing the coupons so she could easily find them when we got to the store. And while I’m not a […]

Dr. Oz has gained fame and credibility as Oprah’s go-to doctor, and has used that fame to help spread the word about varios health conditions. From reversing diabetes, immune disorders and tackling the ever present obesity rates, Dr Oz has made it his life mission to bring us healthy tips and recipes to help reverse the damage […]

I wrote a while back about meeting a man who’s children attended a school in Pennsylvania where they had a separate classroom for the food allergic children. Yes, I said a separate classroom for food allergic children.  He said the reasoning was to act as a way to prevent the children from being made fun of by removing them from exposure […]

Jane Fonda vs Jack Lelane, Vegans vs High Protein diets, Paleo vs Southbeach – who had it right? Both? Niether? Perhaps they were each onto something, but as the debates rage on as to whether the old adage about exercising to burn more calories than you intake is really the key to weight loss, and more people turn to Primal and […]

I’ve mentioned in the past that I am unable to eat most grains, and after testing for cross-reactive foods with Cyrex Labs, I was able to identify quinoa, millet and white potato were causing me to have symptoms of eating gluten. I was told that for many of us with food sensitivities, especially a gluten sensitivity, the body just can’t […]

My husband was looking for a way to add a bit of flavor and heat to our old stand by – green beans. They’re a healthy, easy side dish and our 8 year old will eat them without complaining, so we turn to them often, but as with anything you eat often, we grew tired of […]
