Looking for a cool summer treat that is easier than churning ice cream for hours and healthier than the stuff the ice man sells? This quickie sorbet is tasty, refreshing, healthy, and kid approved. I love that is so easy and fast to make as well. When the kids come inside after a long day playing outside or they finish up a sweaty session at their CrossFit Kids class I can make this up in a flash and not worry about unhealthy ingredients. In fact this sorbet has greens in it! It may be Popeye's … [Read more...]
NutriPro Cold Press Juicer Review
I have made no secret that I am not really big on juicing. I have a Vita-Mix and we just seem to prefer whole foods juices and smoothies, with all the pulp and juice combined. That said it can be very nice though to have a cup of fruit or veggie juice without all the frothy pulp and the full tummy that comes after drinking a whole foods juice. My kids especially like juices and we are loathe to buy them at the store because of all the unsavory ingredients (like lots of added sugar) that often … [Read more...]
Easy Crock Pot Pumpkin Puree Recipe
A few days ago I got a hankering for pumpkin soufflé. I haven't had a soufflé in years and even then it was a savory mushroom soufflé, not a dessert. Yet for some reason I just had to make one.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Breakfast Cookies or Nests – No Bake!
As mentioned when I made my Primal Coconut Raspberry Muffins last week I am trying my hardest not to buy LaraBars or any prepacked snack/meal bars anymore. Too much packaging and too much money spent voting for companies that do not share my values. There are some pricier bars I could buy from more ethical companies but those bars would cost upwards of $2.00 a piece. No thanks...and it doesn't solve the packaging issue. Well this weekend I found a darn near perfect solution and I am rather … [Read more...]
Sweet Potato Pancakes with Goat Cheese and Coconut
We had primal meatloaf and mashed sweet potatoes last night. I made a bit more sweet potatoes then I knew we would need because I was already thinking about lunch for the following day. This recipe makes abut 10 medium size pancakes and is perfect for feeding two (usually me and my husband) but we easily double and triple this recipe for when the kids are home. It is quick and easy to make and oh so delicious and decadent... Sweet Potato Pancakes with Goat Cheese and Coconut 1/2 Cup coconut … [Read more...]
