Grain Free Trail Mix (Paleo and Low Carb)

Easy Weeknight Meatballs (Paleo and Low Carb)
It’s been awhile since I’ve had a blog post, not because I’ve given up on low carb/paleo eating, but because life changes have limited my space (and natural light) to take food photos. I used to have a photography “studio” (really it was just an extra bedroom) with plenty of space to have all my…

Chocolate Orange Layer Cake (Grain Free)

Asian Lettuce Wraps (Paleo and Low Carb)
I’m so excited about growing a garden this spring/summer! Normally I don’t have a green thumb and end up killing everything I try and grow. This year I decided to get a Tower Garden and try it out. I like to think of the Tower Garden as “brown thumb” proof because it steps you through the whole…
