roasted beet and cucumber salad with yogurt dressing

Roasted Beet and Cucumber Salad with Yogurt Dressing

On 08.02.12 By Lea
We planted some chiogga beets this year. Ordinarily I buy vegetable plant seedlings and transplant them into our raised garden beds. But because these are heirloom beets we ordered the seeds online and that meant planting them ourselves. So we’re kind of proud of these beets. It was fun for the boys to see what [...]

Heirloom Tomato Salad with Garlic Scape and Kale Dressing

On 07.08.12 By Lea
If I were a better gardener and lived a little farther (further?) south I MIGHT have grown these heirloom tomatoes myself. But I’m not and I don’t and I didn’t. So, instead, what we have here are heirlooms I found at a standard grocery store and Costco. But let’s not turn up our noses shall [...]

Endive, Watercress and Radish Salad With Walnuts and Goat Cheese

On 06.19.12 By Lea
When I was a kid I remember my father taking our family out to dinner at a “fancy” restaurant in Dallas for a special occasion. The nature of the special occasion eludes me all these many years later but, oddly enough, I still remember the salad. Perhaps that is one mark of a true food [...]

Paleo at Penzey’s

On 12.28.11 By Lea
It was a cold autumn evening and I was on my way to a Christmas concert in a nearby town when I spied a brand-spanking-new Penzey’s store. Had it not been for a slew of paleo food blogs I have seen referencing Penzey’s, the significance might have been utterly lost on me. But I knew [...]

Pomegranate Raspberry Chipotle Sauce and Glaze

On 12.20.11 By Lea
Chipotle peppers have become my secret weapon in cooking. This pomegranate raspberry chipotle sauce and glaze is not only delicious it is absolutely gorgeous, nutrient dense and easy. The chipotle peppers give it a “kick” that melds perfectly with the fruity flavors. I found a similar recipe years ago from Emeril Lagasse that used only raspberries [...]

Holiday Turkey Brine

On 11.17.11 By Lea
Recently, my boys and I took a trip to Williams-Sonoma to purchase a pan for the Paleo Pecan Pie Tart.  While perusing the store, trying not to buy more than was absolutely necessary – a difficult task, I might add- I happened upon a large jar of Turkey Brine. Just last Fall I purchased a [...]

Dry Rubbed Barbecue Pork Ribs – Paleo Style

On 09.14.11 By Lea
Ever since the paleo diet unshackled me from the fear of eating animal fat I have been on a mission to indulge in foods previously avoided. Barbecued pork ribs is one of those foods. My goal with this recipe was to create something delicious that would be paleo, which means, among other things, having very [...]
