Paleo BLTs
or “BLATs”, rather 🙂 Certain foods always remind me of my childhood. Just to name a small few: fresh, homemade tortillas -they’d still be warm from the stove and would literally melt in your mouth Nana’s frijoles (THE BEST) tomato soup in a coffee mug -still one of my favorites, especially when I’m fighting the…

Low-carb zucchini pizza
I’m always messing around with pizza. I think it’s a safe bet because even bad pizza is pretty freaking amazing, so I feel more comfortable toying around with different flavor profiles and crust ideas. One of my all-time faves is this Three Great As pizza, and we’ve also been enjoying lots of chicken crust pizza.…

Things of lately
-The BEST hot yoga class- the kind that gets into your heart and soul. The kind where you do things that you didn’t know you could do. Also the kind where you last-minute save yourself from losing teeth when the instructor suggests bringing your head to the floor during crow pose. [Practicing with friends who…

PRO meal: Mexican stuffed sweet potatoes
I’m fully convinced that everything goes with sweet potato. You can add more sweet (butter, brown sugar and cinnamon = the trifecta of foodgasms) or use the sweet potato as a lovely complement to your favorite savory dishes. One of my all-time favorite sweet potato combos: atop a salad with rotisserie chicken, goat cheese and…
