Gutsy By Nature
Stuffed mushrooms are one of my favorite appetizer and party food dishes and this seafood variation on that classic is not only compliant with the elimination phase of the autoimmune protocol (AIP) but also packed to the gills with nutrient density, which is good for everyone! My mind has been on party food lately, what […]
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). […]
Oh, duck confit… where have you been all my life? Who knew such a fancy sounding dish could actually be so simple to make and also delicious? Maybe my dear readers knew that all along and have been holding out on me, but this is a brand new discovery for me, so please pardon my […]
Most of the food I make at home is delicious, yet simple. Some of it is fancy. And then there are the rare delicious dishes that are both simple and fancy, such this pan-seared duck breast with sage and pear sauce.

Preparing fish at home does not need to be complicated or intimidating. This one-dish recipe for stuffed flounder and a variety of vegetables looks like something for a special occasion but is actually easy enough to make for a fast weeknight dinner.

[…]
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 […]
Believe it or not, the exotic and infiniting interesting flavors of Thai green curry adapt extremely well to the requirements of the autoimmune protocol (AIP) because the dishes are mostly dairy and gluten-free already. If you don’t need to avoid nightshades or other spices, you can use a pre-made green curry paste in this and […]
I can hardly call this pork chop sheet pan dinner a “recipe” as it is little more than arranging foods on a pan and setting a timer! But I wanted to share because the truth is that this is the way most meals in my house get made. Yes, I’m in the food blogging business […]
