Because ’tis the season for pumpkin, betches. I basically got the idea from this recipe, and more or less used this recipe, and then made it my own, obviously. Protein and pumpkin and chocolate chips, with great texture? Yeah, eat it for all the times. Protein Pumpkin Bread (with optional chocolate chips) 4 scoops Primal…
I’m not gonna say I’m CELEB famous for my salads, but … I’m pretty damn close. My salads are requested from coast to coast, born in Aspen, created currently in SoCal, spreading across the continent to D.C. and beyond. Here’s how to make the magic. All sourced at Trader Joe’s: Kale $2 Spinach $2 Cabbage $1.50…
I’ve been making this stupid simple soup for over ten years (before ‘paleo’ entered anyone’s lexicon), but it had fallen out of my regular routine until I was cold last week and wanted something warm to bring for an engagement party potluck. This is the analog recipe: fatfree.com/recipes/fruit-soups/sweet-potato-pear-soup (how embarrassing) SWEET POTATO PEAR SOUP 1/2 onion, diced…

But commercial protein bars can be as bad for you as candy bars, and filled with all sorts of crazy stuff. I found…
Just. Look. At. These. Cookies. Can you tell they’re paleo(ish)? Maybe. Can you tell they have whey protein powder in them? NOPE! Honestly, I don’t know how I stumbled upon making these crumbly, crunchy, chewy, paleo-ish chocolate chip cookies. I just got re-inspired after I tried a terrible commercially-produced protein-powder cookie and thought I have…
No need for the Starbucks gut-buster we all know and love. You can make your own pumpkin spice latte, healthier, and it is awesome. For my earlier version of a make-at-home PSL, using protein powder, click here. Make the Pumpkin Spice Latte: 2 tablespoons coconut milk (full fat) 1-2 tablespoon pumpkin puree (I use canned,…

I finally made a recipe I’d been wanting to make for awhile: butternut squash lasagna cups, from Pinterest. I like lasagna, but I don’t love it like I love pizza. But it has a lot of the same elements, so you’d think I’d love it just as much … anyway, I haven’t spent much time…
