Gutsy By Nature
We’ve all been there… it’s almost dinner time and you have a refrigerator full of ingredients and need them to magically turn themselves into food PRONTO. You know you need a full meal (a can of tuna fish eaten over the sink just isn’t going to cut it) and it sure would be nice if […]
You can stop right there because you had me at “cheesy”! Add taters and bacon, and the fact that this AIP recipe is made on a sheet pan… well, I’m in hog heaven! It’s from a new cookbook called AIP Sheet Pan Recipes, created by Samantha Teague, a professional chef and expert at making the paleo […]
If you are following AIP, you probably think Indian food is completely out of bounds, what with all the seed based spices, nightshades, and ghee… right? My Paleo AIP Indian Adventure, a brand new cookbook by Bethany Darwin, proves that assumption is completely wrong! Whether you are craving spicy curries or savory chapati or lamb […]
When it comes to autoimmune disease, the only thing we know for certain is that everything is uncertain. There is no way to know which medications, which dietary protocols, or even which lifestyle changes provide healing benefits, until you actually try them for yourself. I know this frustrating reality from my personal experience of living […]
Tostones, or twice-fried green plantains, are an AIP breakfast staple for me. Cheap, easy, and delicious – what’s not to love? Well, the fact that they take a little bit of time is one! You have to peel, cut, heat oil, cook pieces on all sides, remove from hot oil, smash, return to hot oil, […]
This recipe for paleo pork vindaloo veers away from the traditional in a few ways, but is still so flavorful and easy to make, especially with the help of my favorite kitchen multi-tasker, the Instant Pot.

This recipe for a strawberry mint watermelon slush is from The Splendid Scoop, a new digital resource that delivers easy and delicious dairy free recipes for ice cream and other frozen treats you […]
Disturbed sleep and active Crohn’s disease go hand-in-hand, which is probably not a surprise to anyone who has experienced the pain, diarrhea, cramping, night sweats, general malaise, and other agony of a flare. Added to that, the steroids that are often prescribed to calm a flare down have the often unwelcome side effect of causing […]
The Greeks knew what they were doing when they created the yogurt-based tzatziki sauce to accompany gyros and souvlaki. Without it, you’ve just got grilled meat. With it, you have something divine! Now I even have a recipe for a dairy-free version that happens to also be compliant with the paleo autoimmune protocol (AIP) and I’m so […]
UPDATE: Congratulations Michelle T. – you are the winner! Check your email and confirm your address. In a perfect “paleo” world, we would cook and eat all of our meals at home, preparing them exclusively from local, organic, ethically sourced whole foods. But I don’t live in that world and you probably don’t either. I […]
