If you are not familiar with Mark Sisson, then check out his site at Mark’s Daily Apple. The site is an excellent resource for health information and recipes. This recipe came from one of Mark’s cookbooks, Primal Blueprint, Quick and Easy Meals. It is full of tasty recipes with simple ingredients that you most likely already have on hand. The Primal Blueprint Cookbook is another one that I love to cook from.
Fall is here and the warmth and smell of this breakfast dish hits the spot!

There is a wonderful new book being released tomorrow called “Practical Paleo” by Diane Sanfilippo. I was lucky enough to get a copy of this book pre-release date. Not only does Diane offer some delicious recipes that are super easy, she also explains the concept behind the Paleo lifestyle. But beyond this, she lets you in on the USDA guidelines for food and why they are unfounded. She explains how your body is like a bank of sorts and you need to make good deposits in order to get some meaningful withdrawals. Putting food into your body such as grains and artificial sugars are not giving your body any sort of nutrients it needs in order for you to get what you want out of it. Makes complete sense, right?
She explains how to heal the gut. I also love the fact that she mentions this is not a “one-size fits all” lifestyle. People have allergies or certain foods they need to avoid and this she also addresses. Whether your goal is fat loss, blood sugar regulation, thyroid health, or if you have MS, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, autoimmune condition(s), or neurological issues, she offers a lifestyle plan for you. Are you following a nightshade-free diet or FODMAPS? (more on this later); this is covered also.
I am very impressed with the layout of this book and the concise, simple format. Very easy to read and follow. I have read a lot of books, articles, and blogs on paleo/primal and I love how she touched on some new things that I didn’t know.
This is one of the recipes from her book. There is another recipe from her book I also want to try, so stay tuned!

I got the inspiration for this recipe after talking with Adam at CrossFit Fort Vancouver. We spend plenty of time talking about food as it is, of course, one of our favorite subjects. I love to walk in and hear him say, “ We made (insert food dish here) last night and it was good!” I reply back excitedly, “Oh yeah? How much of (insert meat, veggie, and/or spice here) did you put in?” His reply is ALWAYS, “well, we didn’t measure, we just threw together what sounded good. I brought some for my lunch. Want to try a bite?” I probably don’t need to tell you that my answer is ALWAYS a resounding, “Of course! Duh!” or something to that effect. This gives me such a great feeling, not just the fact that I get to sample some food, but because experimenting, just throwing together what you think may taste great together, is a great measure of how far your own food knowledge has come. Spending time in the kitchen has paid off. Casey and I love to cook, it is true. But, this honestly doesn’t seem to take as much time for us as it used to. Yes, most of the time we are both in the kitchen cooking together which saves time and the more we learn, the more efficient we are. Great food in less time. Alas, you do not have to spend the time that we have. Take advantage of our site. We are happy to do the experimenting for you! I digress.

I was recently lucky enough to speak with Dr. Allison Siebecker for a few minutes about gut health. You can check out her website on SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth) here. She mentioned to me that she makes her own Greek yogurt. It is a very simple process although prep to finish takes about a day.

My oldest daughter asked me to make cinnamon rolls. Those of you who have no flour in your house at all know this can be tough. I admit that I do miss cinnamon rolls…sometimes, but working at a local donut shop when I was in high school pretty much cured me from craving such things too often. I found a great recipe here at the Cavewoman’s Kitchen and modified a bit with what I had. The result was fantastic and kid approved!

This recipe started out as a crispy hashbrown “cake” (something like a Rösti) that failed to crisp in the pan. There were a lot of reasons (too much potato, not having a well-seasoned iron pan), but rather than give in to failure, I simply revised the cooking method and arrived at this tasty breakfast casserole that goes great with a couple of fresh eggs. If you’ve got a hungry morning crew, make sure to start early, though, because this one takes a good 45 minutes to cook, plus prep time. As for crispy hashbrowns – I’ll be heading back to the drawing board on those.
