Paleo Pecan Pie (no corn syrup)

Paleo Pecan Pie (no corn syrup) by Lisa Whitaker

I have tried a few Pecan Pie recipes before I developed this one. Lets face it, Pecan Pie is really difficult to get wrong but I was pursing a recipe that did not include corn syrup. Why? Well... Long before the Paleo Diet eliminated corn from our diet, we avoided corn because my son as born allergic. So the idea has always been…

Beef Stroganoff (paleo, primal, low carb)

Beef Stroganoff (paleo, primal, low carb) by Lisa Whitaker

I whipped this up this past week because I found a single piece of beef on sale and it was not really enough to serve up a whole family. What I was really in the mood for was something more home cooked (taco's don't really fit that bill for me) and saucy!!! When I make this, it feels like I put forth some effort to feed the family…

Menu Plan Monday: Week of January 13, 2014

Menu Plan Monday: Week of January 13, 2014 by Lisa Whitaker

OK, just as I told you last week, this lower carb following is very hard. I fell off the wagon twice last week and went over my allowances. Once deciding to make a crust for that quiche... bad idea... Second Japanese steak house. Should have just eaten the meat and veggies like my nephew. But oh that rice with yum yum sauce is sooo…

Manu Plan Monday: Week of January 6th, 2014 by Lisa Whitaker

It is a new year, time for those resolutions. I have been using that Lose It app to keep track of my carbohydrate intake. Sticking to less than 20 grams is TOUGH..... #bossup (haha, can you tell I have been hanging around 20 somethings for too long?). That lose it app has me at 1342 total calories a day. WOW! Sucks being short,…

My son says, "Mommy call them better than Udi's. No, call them better than Perkins." After so many failed attempts I had him try, I am flattered by his eagerness.So why the copy? I had a reader ask me to duplicate Udi's Blueberry Muffins recently. To tell you the truth, I NEVER ever tried Udi's Blueberry Muffins. Truth! Why?!?!…

Slow Cooker Chicken-Lickin' Good Pork Chops

Slow Cooker Chicken-Lickin' Good Pork Chops by Lisa Whitaker

Actually it is a cross between the Melt in your Mouth Baked chicken that was going around facebook and this old recipe I knew from a blog I knew long ago. I used to make this recipe in its original form back when we were wheat eaters. Now I am replacing her Cream of Chicken soup with the Melt in your Mouth's Greek Yogurt. I'll…
