Grain-Free Spicy Whole Roasted Chicken

One of the things I learned on the farm, raising our own chickens, was that farm chicken isn’t easily served up as boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs. Most of the time, our home-grown chicken was served as whole, roasted chicken. This brought about the need to create different and interesting whole chicken recipes! 🙂 … Read more

GAPS legal Mushroom Burgers

I’ve been writing out menu plans every week, but last week I was not on top of getting things defrosted when I needed to. SO, since we still needed to eat, I had to come up with some impromptu, easy-to-defrost-and-cook-quickly meals. 🙂 I came up with this dinner idea, and my family LOVED it. We will certainly be making this again! (Well, The Farmer and I LOVED the mushroom burger part of it. The kids loved the cheeseburger part of it. :))

Chocolate Peppermint Love

I am in love. Ok, first with my God, second with my husband, third with my kids, but fourth? Fourth with these lovely chocolates. 🙂 Have I mentioned that I love chocolate? And that we went 9 months or so on GAPS with NO chocolate because we thought we couldn’t have it on the diet? Yes, let me tell you, it was torture. 😉 Well, this is just what I needed to make up for those months of torture…

Fudgy Coconut Flour Brownies!

I was super excited to accidently come up with this recipe. I came up with another coconut flour brownie recipe last week, and then “messed up” on it this weekend right before having guests over, and was amazed at my mistake. They were SO good! 🙂 If you know me, you know I love me some chocolate, so this is going to become a staple in my home (you know, on the weekly list, like: Make butter, make yogurt, make granola, soak seeds, make brownies). Yup. I love them THAT much. 🙂
