PALEO | WHOLE30 | DAIRY-FREE | GLUTEN-FREE On a normal weekend, when we’re home, I probably spend 5 hours preparing food for the week ahead. That’s half of a weekend day! Of course, that doesn’t factor in the time spent planning the meals, buying the ingredients, etc. I love cooking, and I love grocery shopping,… Continue reading 1-hour meal prep | why I’m done doing

lentil-potato soup, aka wisdom teeth
GLUTEN-FREE | CAN BE DAIRY-FREE* | CAN BE VEGETARIAN** I’ve been running from it for a few years now, but it’s finally time: I’m getting my wisdom teeth out this week. Gasp.

turkey blt salad, aka space camp
PALEO | WHOLE30 | DAIRY-FREE | GLUTEN-FREE I don’t know when I became such a salad eater. I used to make fun of my mom and sister for being such…. rabbits, eating their greens, while I scarfed down a burger/ribs/other “man food”. It probably started at Space Camp, in 6th grade, when I had my… Continue reading turkey blt salad, aka space camp
