weekly paleo recipes, health tips, and more from a couple on the go
Over the past year or so, we’ve been really fortunate to make friends in the “paleo” community, and today’s recipe is from our friend Alex Boake. She actually learned this from her boyfriend’s dad, but nonetheless, this recipe caught my eye for a few reasons. Garlic and cabbage were reasons one and two. I love making cabbage slaw and cole slaw, but they are admittedly more time consuming.
We used to order delivery pizza a couple times a month–it was either that or Chinese food–whenever we were over-stressed by work and grad school or simply just too tired and lazy after an excessively long day. It was easy. It was fast. It was tasty. But delivery doesn’t save you money and it definitely doesn’t help you stay healthy. So, we created the supreme pizza quiche after the pizza we used to order most often. It’s like eating pizza for breakfast, but a way healthier version. Who wouldn’t want that on occasion? YUMM.
This Mother’s Day, we were able to take over my mother’s kitchen and really go to town on cooking some recipes not just for food for the week, but for me to pay homage to my mom, who really turned me on to cooking. One of my favorite recipes she used to always make for me is her seafood fettuccine alfredo, which is absolutely to die for. It is also full of dairy and wheat. While I love that recipe, it definitely doesn’t fit into my current lifestyle, and I would hate to remember it for how it would inevitably make me feel now than how great it tasted.
Several people have asked how to make zoodles, as we use them for a lot of recipes and they’re a nice grain-free alternative to pasta. Like the post we did on cauliflower rice, this is a quick how-to for your reference.
Now that we’ve gone through what we hope is the last of the bi-polar transition to spring and summer, it is a perfect time to dust off the grill and enjoy some outdoor cooking. Growing up in Wisconsin, weekend brat cookouts were common, even well into the winter. We don’t grill as much as I did growing up, but I still love taking the time to be outdoors, and the smell of the grill.
