Easy Yuca Oven Fries (AIP)
Since “going paleo” a few years ago, I have been introduced to a number of new-to-me foods that I now love, and high atop that list are yuca fries! Known and loved as yuca frita in much of Latin America, they are a great alternative to traditional french fries for people who are following the autoimmune protocol […]
When the weather is warm, I cook on our outdoor grill at least a couple times a week. It’s easy, tastes good, and there is virtually nothing left to clean up! Usually I just throw a protein and some vegetables on there without a whole lot of thought, but I noticed that we are kind […]
I could sum up the review of Russ Crandall’s new cookbook, Paleo Takeout, in just three words: BUY IT NOW. You could just quit reading now and jump over to Amazon and order your copy… but first take a second to scroll to the end of this post and check out the sneak preview recipe for Tom […]

I was recently trying to create a simple asian stir fry while cooking for the family on vacation and tried in vain to find a bottle of teriyaki sauce that was gluten free and not loaded with artificial junk and refined sugar. If only I had known then how easy it was to create your own! […]
UPDATE: Congratulations Lori L., you are the winner! Check your email and reply to confirm your address… I find it hard to believe now, but for the longest time I thought I hated squash. One of the delightful side effects of going on a diet that restricted most of the starchy foods I used to fill my […]
Sweet potato fries, made in the oven at home, that are actually crispy? YES! It is possible! I have tried so many different versions of this recipe since adopting a paleo diet and been disappointed with every single one. Sure, they tasted fine, but they were limp and soggy, never crispy. Some recipes called for […]
