I see a lot of fudge recipes around this time of year, but they’re always overly sugared, unstable out of the freezer, and rarely vegan. As someone with lots of food restrictions of my own, I definitely know what it feels like to be at a party or work event and not be able to… Read More Paleo Vegan Peppermint Fudge
I’ve had the idea to create my own not-full-of-junk not-full-of-carbs workout beverage for quite a while, but couldn’t really figure out the right direction to go in. Collagen has been growing in popularity for quite some time, I myself have been using it for well over a year at this point, but I mostly just… Read More Workout Recovery Drink (Whole30)
Oooh it feels so good to be writing again! Especially about food, and makeup! I know I sort of disappeared without a trace after posting very regularly for half the year, but now I’m back. Long story short: I unexpectedly got a job offer and have been working full time since the end of June!… Read More Pumpkin Curry Soup (Whole30)

Unfortunately, the store-bought mayonnaise options are pretty lacking in quality, taste, price or any combination of the three. You can go the super processed… Read More Homemade Whole30 Mayo
Despite our shared Russian roots, beef stroganoff is not a dish I ate often growing up – I don’t really remember eating it ever to be honest. That all changed a few years ago when Portland was graced with Kachka, the Russian/Ukrainian restaurant brain child of James Beard-nominee Bonnie Morales. I say this with no… Read More Heritage: Instant Pot Beef Stroganoff (Paleo)
