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…
Roasted Spiced Radishes (Paleo and Low Carb)
When I first changed my diet I started by lowering my carbs and one of the best substitutes for potatoes was radishes. At first I wasn’t going to try it because most of my experience with radishes was in raw form in salads. Yuck! I definitely wasn’t a fan of raw radishes, but I decided to…
Herb Crusted Pork Loin (Low Carb and Paleo)
I usually get all my meat from a local farm that has grassfed beef plus pastured chicken, pork, and turkey. It’s so convenient to be a part of the “meat share” and each month and I pick up the meat at the farmer’s market once a month. It’s already packaged and I store it in…
Spiced Chicken Wings (Low Carb and Paleo)
Today is Day 8 of our 30 Day Clean Eating Challenge. So far so good for me and while my diet normal consists of clean low carb and paleo eating, I had indulged on a little too many grain free treats over the holidays. Plus I’m trying to get rid of SIBO so it’s best for me…
Cucumber “Pasta” Salad (Low Carb and Paleo)

Lemon Basil Grilled Chicken (Paleo and Low Carb)
I love making my own salad dressings. Ever since I stopped eating store bought mayonnaise because it’s full of canola oil and/or soybean oil and I got tired of many, many, many failed attempts at a homemade paleo mayo that actually tastes good (well good enough for my beloved Ranch seasoning). So I had to turn to…

Lemon Vanilla Coconut Butter Cups
Homemade coconut butter is one of my favorite snacks to make. It’s an easy way to make homemade candy without needing to add extra sugar. You’ve probably seen my video on how to make Toasted Coconut Butter and my recipe for making Toasted Coconut Butter Cups. Those are usually my favorite ways to enjoy coconut butter,…
Slow Cooker Pork Loin with Onion Gravy
One of my favorite things to do for dinner on a Sunday is to throw something in the slow cooker while I work on getting ready for the start of the workweek and the enjoy the last bit of my weekend. A few weeks ago, I was going through my freezer and noticed a pork…
Make Ahead Freezer Meatballs
The 30-Day Squeaky Clean Eating Challenge started on Monday so to prepare last weekend I made some make ahead meals so after a long day of work I could mindlessly make dinner without have to think about it much. One of the dishes I made was Italian Meatballs, which are great for those doing a…
