This recipe is kind of a combo with a couple of fish tacos recipes I’ve been playing with. Most fish taco recipes will have you batter and then fry the fish. I’m not a huge fan of this- first of all, I’d usually use my cast iron for that. I’m not a huge fan of…

Gluten Free Grilled Pizza
Pizza on the grill is probably one of the best ways to have pizza, in my opinion. It adds the whole grill flavor to one of my favorite dishes. This recipe isn’t anything “new,” but I thought I’d give you some tips on grilling pizza. If you’re into gluten free, like me, then I definitely…
Slow Cooker Thai Chicken with Peanut Sauce
Chicken with peanut sauce is one of my favorite dishes when we get Thai food. I almost always get it. This recipe came out okay- I would make more sauce to pour over the dish, or have some on the side as these noodles really soaked up the sauce. Otherwise, it was pretty delicious. I…
Slow Cooker Orange Roast
This was an extremely simple meal. There’s a little bit of prep you can do in the morning or even the night before. It’s literally a full meal cooked in the crock pot. I also cooked up some green beans o the side for some extra veggies, but you don’t necessarily need it. If I…
Peach BBQ Pork Sliders & Apple Cole Slaw
This is a great summer or fall recipe and you get to use your slow cooker!! I’m always looking for new ways to make pork and incorporate that into our diet. I get a little sick of the usually chicken, beef and occasional fish. I also made the Hawaiian rolls from scratch and gluten-freed them….
Honey Mustard Chicken, Avocado & Bacon Salad
I’m always looking for ways to be more creative with my salads. I am famous for my salads. I can look in the fridge, pull out some veggies and fruit, grab some ingredients out of the cabinet and throw it all together. I know how to balance out crunchy, sweet, salty, creamy- it’s a gift,…
Gluten Free Pierogies
Ever since I went gluten free, I’ve been cheating when it comes to pierogies. I’ve never been much of a baker- I’ve always been a cook. Cooking is always so much safer- you don’t really have to measure things once you get the hang of how much a teaspoon looks like where baking is much…
Nachos with Plantain Chips
This is another recipe my husband asks for on a regular basis. The plantain chips give you that crispness you’re looking for when it comes to nachos that you’d be missing from regular chips. You prepare the ground beef like you would a chili, but it definitely takes less time. This is another recipe from…
Butter Chicken with Homemade GF Naan
Okay guys. I hope you’re ready for this one. As I’ve mentioned before, Indian food is a big hit in my house and my husband is always asking me to make it. If you’ve never had Indian food, butter chicken might be a good place for you to start. It has a much more mild…
Paleo Balance Bowl
Annnnnnnd I’m back! I took a bit of a break from blogging during the summer. For those of you who know me, my summers are full of traveling from NJ to PA or NJ to NY for the weekends enjoying family and friend time. My “blogging time” is usually Sunday afternoon/evenings, but I just found…
Coconut Thai Chicken Curry
My family loves curries and I don’t make them often enough. I especially love Thai food and this dish definitely has this vibe. It is extremely easy to make, it’s a beautiful color so it’s pleasing to the eye, and can be paired with either rice, cauliflower rice, or whatever your choice is. This recipe…
German Sauerbraten, Potato Pancakes and Cabbage
May isn’t really time for Oktoberfest, but my husband craves German food on a daily basis. His roots are German and this kind of food is his “soul food.” This is a recipe that has been passed down, translated and used by several generations in his family. I’m now passing it down to you. Be…
