Primal Creamy Spicy Cauliflower Cheddar Soup

Posted by Julie on Jun 8, 2012 | 3 comments

My favorite comfort food in the world before starting my primal/paleo lifestyle was mac n’ cheese (n’ ranch beans n’ tuna n’ hotsauce – can you tell I’m in college?). This soup beats my mac n’ cheese cravings to the ground, and it takes only slightly more work to make than Easy Mac!

Paleofied Polish-Style Pork Cutlets (Kotlety Schabowe)

My family is from Kielce, Poland (I’m first generation American), and I grew up eating my grandmother’s amazing cooking from the homeland. I didn’t always appreciate the food when she was cooking it (awww man, cabbage rolls again?), but now that I’m older and don’t have her calling me when dinner is ready, I miss our simple Polish meals tremendously.

Primal Eggplant Parmesan

One of my all time favorite cuisines is Italian – I love garlic, tomatoes, olive oil, and basil! Although most of the recipes call for bread, bread crumbs, or some kind of pasta, there are ways of getting around that to have a more primal/paleo friendly Italian dinner. Here I used almond flour instead of bread crumbs to make the delicious breading on my Eggplant Parmesan.

Crockpot Beef Ragu

Fix-it-and-forget-it style cooking rocks when you’ve got a gazillion things to do and little time to do them and can’t be tethered to the kitchen. Spice the meat, throw it in the slow-cooker and come back hours later to succulent tender beef waiting for your fork. Serve along with a heaping side of vegetables.

Vegan Friendly Vegetable Soup

Posted by Julie on Mar 8, 2012 | 0 comments

There’s nothing in this vegetable soup except vegetables and spices! It’s meat, gluten, dairy, peanut, and soy free, making it an excellent choice when cooking for someone whose dietary habits/needs you don’t know. The flavors are simple, coming mostly from the natural flavors of the vegetables in the soup with just a sprinkle of basil, oregano, salt and pepper. The shredded cabbage replaces pasta and makes the soup more filling while also providing vitamins C and K. Enjoy!
