With two active little boys its sometimes 3 o’clock in the afternoon before I really start thinking about what I’m going to cook my family for dinner. I really wish I would plan ahead more often but I have learned to enjoy the challenge that comes from whipping something up on a whim. I think ...

This week I took the kids down to the local farmers market. We had to get our weekly strawberries and see what other goodies we might be able to pick up. One of the vendors had some nice looking heirloom tomatoes, and while this isn’t the peak season for tomatoes I thought I would buy ...

I know that folks out there are serious about their ‘cue. There are regional wars fought over the “right” BBQ. The lengths people go to for that perfect flavor is mind-boggling: brining, top-secret spice blends, mopping, wood chips, smoking, marinating. And of course, the star ingredient—the sauce. Will this sauce win you any awards and […]
We have been fortunate enough to have some amazingly warm and sunny days this month. Spring has hit and our outdoor grill is being used in full force. Tonight we cooked up a skirt steak topped with chimichurri sauce. For those of you who have not tried chimichurri; it is an amazingly versatile sauce made ...

Let’s start with a random tidbit! My parents were *THIS* close to naming me Primavera. Instead she chose Tamara (Layla is my youngest daughter). Since that’s what I thought about when I first saw this meal, you get to now think about it too! So on to the real stuff. This frozen dinner almost, kind of, sort of looks like the photo on the box. More so than some other dinners. The
Apologies for the “blurry” photo. That’s actually smoke coming off the grill. I forgot to take a photo while plated and went straight to devouring these so this in-process grilling photo is the only one I have. This was a great basic recipe from Kalyns Kitchen. I wouldn’t change a thing. She recommends using tri-tip, london broil, top sirloin or top loin. If you use a tougher cut of meat
Cheddar Baked Chicken
This was definitely a family pleaser. Everyone including the baby liked them (I made the kids portions into smaller pieces like chicken nuggets and cooked for less time). You can’t really go wrong with what is basically chicken nuggets with cheddar mixed in. Yum! If you don’t have almond flour, I think that coconut flour or low carb bake mix would probably work fine
*GASP!!!* Don’t tell anybody, but there’s no meat in this soup. In fact, it’s…VEGAN!!! But oh so tasty and full of beneficial fats and nutrients. It makes a wonderful light lunch with a salad or feel free to top it with shredded chicken, pork, or some shrimp. Cubes of avocado would also be nice. The […]
Lemon Caper Chicken
This is a great simple recipe that tastes like something more complex. I used to make this one back in my carb-etarian days but used white flour back then. If you aren’t familiar, capers are yummy little tang/vinegar fun balls. Yup, I just wrote “fun balls” and I’m not going to change it. If you don’t have both almond and coconut flours, use whatever low carb flour you
