I used to be one of them. I though cooking wasn’t worth my time and was slightly rebelliousness about it. This wasn’t the 50s. […]
A fresh way to repurpose Thanksgiving leftovers Thanksgiving was five days ago as I write this blog post. I still have random leftovers in my fridge and I’m hungry. But how many times can you have turkey, green beans, sweet potato and cauliflower without getting sick of it? For some reason eating muffins makes me […]
The art of following a recipe I like it when people write about their failures. You can learn just as much from what went wrong as you can from what went right. I’m really bad at following other people’s recipes but since I’ve gone back to then Paleo diet I’ve tried different recipes to expand […]
A Paleo version of ethnic noodle soup Pho is the traditional meat, broth and noodle soup of Vietnam. It’s pronounced “FUH”. A silly name for a serious soup. I’m not a picky eater but I used to really dislike broth-based soups and refused to eat them. Then I learned how healthy broth is for you. […]
How to HOST A PROBIOTIC PARTY (in your mouth)! You might have heard how good sauerkraut is for you. It’s quite popular in Ukrainian cuisine. I was born in Ukraine (the former Soviet Union at the time) and moved here when I was 5 years old. I grew up eating a mixture of Ukrainian and […]
How to make homemade pumpkin seed butter (it’s easier than you think!) I’ve been a big fan of pumpkin seed butter for almost a decade. It was one of my few indulgences when I was on a strict diet to heal my digestive issues. I never realized how easy it was to make your own, […]
Eggs are one of my favorite health foods. But as a digestive health coach I know some people are allergic to them. Using higher quality eggs that are not fed soy might solve the issue for some, but others may need to avoid them all together. You can test if you have a problems […]
The irony of a grain-free life When I went Paleo I started baking, a lot. Baking grain-free breads, muffins and cookies made the transition much easier. It was my secret to making it work. I had a lot of fun trying new recipes for baked goods made out of a combo of blanched almond flour, […]
I was super excited to try this recipe that I found online for meat bagels. I haven’t had a bagel in probably a year, and the thought of making little meat bagels caught my imagination. It was simple. Mix onions and garlic with spices, tomato paste, ground beef and one egg. They definitely looked cute […]
It’s that good. The secret is using baby kale leaves, they are tender and you don’t have to remove the stems. I bought mine bagged at my favorite supermarket Berkeley Bowl in Berkeley, California.
Pasta is the first thing to go on a grain-free diet.
Paleo peeps pine for pasta in the beginning. The secret is substituting pasta for veggies and heaping on your favorite sauce, veggie marinara….bacon cream sauce….bring it on.
Here is a radical concept for pasta replacement. Greens. Ooooooh. Baby kale. Aahhhhhh.
Baby kale makes a great palate for zesty marinara sauce, sausage and cheese. And you can feel really good about yourself for stocking up on, nutrient powerhouse , kale.
Lets put it this way, Kale is as close to a superhero as a vegetable can get. It’s that powerful. And pretty in right now. Trader Joes can’t keep their bagged kale in stock.
Ingredients $9.00 (2 Servings)
Saute garlic and onion in olive oil/butter/coconut oil
Add in meat and cook a few minutes. Add in pasta sauce and cook down for 5 minutes.
Scramble eggs in a different pan and add in to pasta sauce.
Add in the kale leaves last and cook until wilted.
Salt, sprinkle with cheese and serve.
