Gutsy By Nature
I made this gorgeous AIP-friendly version of a Cobb salad as part of our “around-the-world” culinary adventures in 2020. I’ve learned so much during this year long project about things that I had never even thought about before. For example, I never knew that “baked beans” are called that because they are… baked! I just […]
Looking for a nightshade-free, AIP-compliant sheet pan chicken fajitas? I’ve got you covered here… using one of my favorite fall vegetables as a stand-in for the more traditional yellow bell pepper! This is a super easy recipe, perfect for weeknight cooking. There is a little bit of prep time required, but that could be easily […]
Carob syrup is the secret ingredient to these sticky sweet and sour chicken wings. Wings like these are an easy concept, but a challenge to execute at home without a deep fryer and an even bigger challenge if you are operating within the confines of a soy-free and sugar-restricted diet like the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP). […]
I didn’t set out to create this recipe; it created itself! Boneless chicken thighs, a few pieces of bacon, a bunch of kale, and some gorgeous king trumpet oyster mushrooms were all rolling around my refrigerator one day and I decided to see what turned out when I threw them all in my favorite pan, […]
These updated chicken cabbage rolls share only two things in common with the cabbage roll made by the descendents of Eastern European immigrants and popular on potluck tables of my childhood. The cabbage. And the roll. Everything else is completely unrecognizable… and that’s a good thing! A favorite dish for some, but I was never […]
Comfort food, plain and simple. This variation on chicken and dumplings is an AIP-friendly version of a dish that I grew up eating throughout my childhood in Wisconsin, especially during the busy school year. It was usually made from scratch, always with homemade dumplings and usually a creamy dairy-based sauce, though sometimes a can of […]
Situation: It’s July and it is hot and humid. I’d rather grill outside, where it already feels like an oven, than turn on the oven in the kitchen! Chicken pieces might be an obvious choice for making Tuscan grilled chicken but whole chickens are more economical and readily available this time of year from local […]
Celery root has recently become one of my favorite vegetables… and until not long ago, it was completely foreign to me. Ditto for several other ingredients in this delicious chicken & mushroom stew. Leeks? Bring them on! Shiitake mushrooms? Get in my tummy now! And marjoram? Oh yes, it is now one of my absolute […]
There are so many compelling reason to eat with the seasons, but at the top of the list for me is flavor! These mushroom and chicken kebabs are my contribution to an exciting new collaborative AIP cookbook that I know you are going to love, whether you are a summer baby like me who longs […]
Making homemade sausage is not nearly as hard as you may think, and these AIP-friendly apple and chicken breakfast sausages are completely worth the effort! Simply start with pre-ground meat, mix in seasonings of your choice, and then shape into either patties or links. You can make a batch and fry or bake right away, […]
