Fried Sweet Plantains

On 09.08.11 By Lea
Plantains are not a food I grew up eating in Texas. In fact, the first time I ate plantains was in a Cuban restaurant just a few years ago. But eating a Paleo diet means no grains or legumes so I have been trying a few new foods to fill in the gaps. My problem [...]

Paleo & Primal Whole Foods Haul

On 09.06.11 By Lea
Whole Foods is a great resource for Paleo Diet (and Primal) necessities. On the Friday before Labor Day weekend, Whole Foods held a sale on “Grass-Fed” ground beef. While steak is high on my list of good things in life I definitely love good ground beef. It’s very versatile and can be healthy and delicious [...]

Paleo/Primal Purslane Omelet Breakfast

On 08.31.11 By Lea
Just a quick post showing today’s breakfast. Nothing earth-shattering. But I’m a visual person and like to see what other Paleo folks eat. So here’s a photo of my mushroom omelet with purslane. It was as simple as frying three baby-Bella mushrooms in some ghee and adding two eggs scrambled with some black pepper, sea [...]

Barbacoa Beef Recipe for Crockpot or Pressure Cooker

On 08.26.11 By Lea
As a displaced Texan living in the Northeast I am always on the lookout for great barbecue, Tex-Mex and Mexican food. I love where I live but there is a definite dearth of these types of restaurants – at least not with the quality I expect. Okay, I admit it, I am a food snob [...]

Paleo Ostrich Egg Brunch

On 08.20.11 By Lea
The boys and I took a trip into New York City the other day and stopped by the Union Square Greenmarket.  My husband, G, had been there the previous Friday and let me know there was a farmer selling ostrich and emu eggs.  Unfortunately, he was sold out that particular day. But Sweet Pea, Big [...]

Paleo at Costco

On 08.18.11 By Lea
Though initially a bit daunting, shopping for Paleo Diet food (i.e. real food) is becoming second nature. Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods are great for lots of reasons. But because neither one is super close to my house Costco has become my go-to store for several food items that are indispensable for my family. I [...]

Beet and Cabbage Slaw

On 08.14.11 By Lea
The word coleslaw usually conjures up images of mayonnaise-laden cabbage and carrots. While I am not at all opposed to eating mayonnaise, the problem with the store-bought versions is they contain all sorts of funky ingredients. I make my own mayonnaise now and then but it does take a little more time. Not to mention, [...]

Review: NEW GRIST Gluten-Free Beer

On 08.13.11 By G
In a free market, quality often improves when consumer choice increases, and this scenario is having a positive impact on the market for gluten-free beer. Not surprisingly, the recent growth in available brands of gluten-free beer is attributed to the increasing recognition of general gluten sensitivity and serious autoimmune disorders like celiac disease. To satisfy [...]

Ancho Chile Pulled Pork Barbecue

On 08.10.11 By Lea
Even though I am originally from Texas where beef barbecue is king, I attended grad school in South Carolina and developed a serious appreciation for pulled pork with mustard based sauce.  This recipe for Ancho Chile Pulled Pork Barbecue contains a decent amount of mustard and vinegar for a REALLY tangy taste reminiscent of Carolina [...]

Kale Salad with Warm Andouille Sausage Dressing

On 08.08.11 By Lea
While the squash and zucchini plants have suffered some damage from the dreaded vine borers, the kale plants are still going strong.  I used to say “I don’t DO kale” but have come around to the dark green side in a major way.  The following recipe came to mind when I realized that one of [...]
