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 […]
A recipe like this one for an AIP-compliant BBQ pork will help your weekly meal planning and prepping. Just let it cook under pressure while you ignore it. A four pound cut of meat will easily yield 8 or more servings, so you can serve a crowd or you can insert it into your meal […]
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 […]
I’ve cracked two codes with this BBQ pork spare ribs recipe! These are fall-off-the-bone tender pork spare ribs that don’t take all day to cook with an easy but delicious AIP compliant sauce. Most of the cooking is done in a pressure cooker but you can finish them like I did on an outdoor grill […]
The adventures of urban gardening continue and so does my desire to utilize every bit of what I grow… and so I give you turnip greens with pork this week! The picture may not be pretty but this humble dish is extremely satisfying and nutrient dense, as well as being a good use of a […]
As the days get shorter and colder, I find myself turning to AIP comfort food recipes like this Greek shepherd’s pie. This is also the short season when my local Trader Joe’s stocks the purple skinned, white fleshed murasaki sweet potatoes, which make a perfect shepherd’s pie topping when you can’t eat nightshades. All about […]
Ask a home cook which kitchen tools they use the most often and you’ll learn a lot about who they are. At the top of my list is my chef knife, a wooden spoon, and a heavy cast iron skillet. You could take everything else away from me and as long as I had those […]
Everyone knows about “Taco Tuesday” and “Friday Fish Fry” was a staple of my childhood, and I think it is high time we gave the humble meatball its own day too! Having a theme makes AIP menu planning a little bit easier and a lot more fun, and because ground meat is often the most […]
Like many great recipes, these AIP-friendly pork and leek meatballs came into existence by accident. I actually thought I had grabbed a package of frozen lamb out of the freezer and was going to make an entirely different dish, but when I realized I actually had ground pork defrosted and ready to go, I started […]
If you prefer a fancy Italian name, you can call this “zuppa di salsiccia,” which simply means sausage soup. It was born on a cold January night when when I was craving something nourishing and hearty like the white bean and sausage soup I used to make, before I realized that legumes and my digestive […]
