If you could only eat one food what would it be?
Mine would definitely be avocados. Guacamole for every meal. YES.
Me and guacamole are true love.
And sometimes, it’s nice to dress my true love up. Like with green apples and jalapeños. Still simple, and yet a little bit extra. This Green Apple Guacamole Guacamole is refreshing, tart and the perfect game time snack!

Paleo gluten free muffins that aren’t a crumbly mess?
The struggle is real. And so is this recipe. Paleo Orange Date muffins that are moist, tender and sweetened only with dates and freshly squeezed orange juice!! Huge win.
I am obsessed with these muffins and have been making them repetitively. You know, I had to make sure they were *perfect* for the blog. Are you ready to give them a go?
Let’s do this!!

Do you want a super easy, delicious soup that is perfect for snowy weather?
You have come to the right place! Enter, Leek and Sweet Potato Soup. It is a soothing blend of leeks, onions, garlic and sweet potato and is whole30, paleo and vegan friendly. Perfect to take to work in a thermos for lunch or an easy weeknight dinner.
SOUP you say! Didn’t I just post a soup recipe? Well, it was a stew actually but yes. I hadn’t planned on making this recipe until I signed up for The Little Plantation‘s Food Photography Contest. The first task was to take photos of onions and leeks (or something made from onions and leeks) and of course, being up for the challenge I made this recipe. It was so easy and I loved it so much I decided to share it here!

It’s frigid outside right now. F-R-I-G-I-D.
I don’t dislike winter, I swear, but right about now I could use a good dose of vitamin D and some sunshine. And since I’m not planning any trips down south a big hearty stew will have to do. Creamy, flavourful and whole30 friendly this kale and chicken stew with almond butter is THE BEST to help you warm up while the temperature continues to dip.

It’s that time of year again…
Booklist time!
At the beginning of each year I like to make a list of all of the books I want to read throughout the year. Doing this helps motivate me to keep reading and keep track of what I have read and what I want to read. I like to choose a mixture of books on my bookshelf that I haven’t read yet or want to read again, books I get as gifts or while travelling, books I can order from the library, and lastly books that I know I want to keep and can order on Amazon or buy at the local bookstore.
And of course, what goes along with reading books? A cozy latte! I blended up a warming vegan salted caramel latte with cardamom using cashews and a few of my favourite superfoods. Sound good? Read on friend for the recipe!

It’s that time of year again! January is here and I thought I would throw together a little bit of inspiration for all those doing Whole30. Even if you aren’t, these recipes are all paleo, some of them are vegan and they are all delicious! Included are a few warming soups, a couple of main dishes, breakfasts and of course a couple of sauces. Happy January!
