Sunshine Sweet Potato Soup

Sunshine Sweet Potato Soup by Cassandra Plank

The holidays come so early in the winter season, with all their bright lights, but then they're over in a flash and we've got the rest of the cold, dark winter to contend with. In the attempt to retain some brightness, I did a makeover on a recipe I post long ago, Golden Lentil Soup. I've substituted paleo-friendly sweet potatoes for…

Springtime Frittata

Springtime Frittata by Cassandra Plank

Most of my friend's Facebook pictures have been involving snow. We've had some rainy days here is Northern California, but otherwise it's been sunny and around 50 degrees. But I won't be a jerk and talk about it too much. The only alarming thing is that it was 45 degrees outside and I felt cold the other day. Cold. At 45 degrees. I'm…

Brined Lemon-Herb Chicken

Brined Lemon-Herb Chicken by Cassandra Plank

A few months ago, I bought Marie Kondo's book, The Life-changing Magic of Tidying Up. It's taken me a while to apply her method, but I finally feel ready to take it on. I feel even more motivated because I'm about to move (again) and I would like to live a more minimalist lifestyle. I'm also motivated because I don't want to move so…

What I Ate Wednesday: 21 Day Fix with Paleo Meals (1/27/2016) by Cassandra Plank

I stopped by the side of the road and took pictures of poppies today. Sorry to all of the rest of you in the frozen tundra otherwise known as the US. I hope I'm not the only person in town that took notice of these beauties, but I might be the only…

Maybe it's because I'm working on some fun projects.Besides coming up with recipes, I'm preserving some memories in the form of a t-shirt quilt. Throughout my…

What I Ate Wednesday: 21 Day Fix with Paleo Meals

What I Ate Wednesday: 21 Day Fix with Paleo Meals by Cassandra Plank

I'm not sure why it's so fascinating, but I love reading about what people ate in a day on my favorite blogs. I think part of it is just non-recipe based inspiration. So foods that aren't part of a recipe, but are an interesting combination to add novelty to what I'm already eating.I thought I'd create some of my own "what I ate in a…

Dairy-Free Chocolate Pecan Fudge

Dairy-Free Chocolate Pecan Fudge by Cassandra Plank

This recipe didn't go how I planned at all, but the results are delicious! I planned to make a layered dairy-free chocolate pecan toffee inspired by a YouTube video. The final step, where the chocolate chips are added, didn't work. There wasn't enough heat to melt them (or perhaps I got impatient...)! Then the chips started sinking…

Caramelized Onion Turkey Meatballs

Caramelized Onion Turkey Meatballs by Cassandra Plank

Caramelized onions are one of the most delicious recipe additions. On top of a burger, in French onion soup, breakfast casserole...delicious. They should be in more recipes, and in an effort to make that happen, I added them to turkey meatballs. Turkey is one of those meats that is really complemented by sweet flavors.Take your time…
