Oh my goodness. Even as a general hater of all things cinnamon, pumpkin cheesecake is pretty much my favorite treat this time of year. I think something about the creaminess combined with the sweetness of the pumpkin helps to offset the cinnamon enough for me to focus on the sugar. I can hypothesize about my… Read More Paleo Pumpkin Cheesecake Bites (Vegan)
Let’s clear the air real quick: corn is a grain, not a vegetable, which means it’s not paleo. I am aware of this, but with so many food restrictions for health reasons, I’m gonna take what I can get. Corn does not seem to have any negative impact on me so, when not on Whole30,… Read More Healthy Homemade Popcorn

I resisted the idea for so long, because it’s “not in the spirit of paleo,” but I think I was wrong. As I continue in my efforts to make paleo fooding a… Read More Paleo Chocolate Buttercups
Oh how I crave these. Nick (in these parts, formerly known as The Boyfriend) is definitely the baker in our house and this is absolutely my favorite of his creations. While these cakes may not be Whole30 in philosophy, the ingredients are compliant and with no added sugar, I feel pretty okay with the occasional… Read More Badass Banana Cakes
