Skillet Chicken and Gravy

March 27, 2020 by Jen Leave a Comment

This skillet chicken and gravy is a one pan, buttery, moist, full of flavor chicken, slathered in a delicious gravy to make the perfect comfort meal.

There are some meals that become instant family favorites. Some that are super easy and come together with little work. This skillet chicken and gravy is all the things. Every time it’s made, I hear bold declarations like “Why don’t we eat this once a week?” and “Mommy, this is the best chicken ever. I only like this chicken.” This is just one of those comfort meals, perfect for dinner any time of year.

Skillet chicken and gravy is a rich meal without much effort. With a buttery flavor from the ghee and just a hint of tangy lemon, this chicken and gravy will appease even the toughest critics. In our house, we eat the chicken and gravy over regular rice most often, but is also delicious over baked (yellow) sweet potatoes for a paleo compliant meal….

Dairy Free Strawberry Orange Green Smoothie

March 25, 2020 by Jen Leave a Comment

A dairy free strawberry orange green smoothie perfect for breakfast on the go or a sneaky veggie infused side dish for kids at meal time.

If your kids are like mine, they turn their noses up at vegetables. Every chance I get, I sneak veggies to them without their knowledge. My favorite, most liked way to do that is with a smoothie. This strawberry orange smoothie recipe (much like all smoothie recipes on this site) came to me during hot dog dinner night. I needed something as a quick side dish that would be received with happiness….

Quick Nightshade Free Guacamole

March 23, 2020 by Jen Leave a Comment

This quick nightshade free guacamole comes together fast and gives your tacos the right dose of fat and spice. It’s the perfect cheese substitute in tacos and enchiladas.

Without tolerating dairy, I’ve leaned on avocados as the fatty sub for cheese when eating tacos (basically daily) and salads. Adding guacamole to tacos adds a necessary element of flavor. Having a nightshade free guacamole you can throw together quickly makes eating tacos on a nightshade and dairy free diet much more bearable….

Dairy Free Cheeseburger Macaroni

October 23, 2019 by Jen Leave a Comment

A dairy free cheeseburger macaroni that’s creamy, cheesy, gluten free, nightshade free and secretly loaded with vegetables, the whole family will love and ask for all the time.

This dairy free cheeseburger macaroni is surprisingly authentic to the real thing. It is cheesy and not too spicy (but still a little spicy) without dairy or nightshades. Before being free of gluten, dairy and nightshades, we really enjoyed this cheeseburger macaroni recipe. It was so simple and easy to throw together. This dairy free cheeseburger macaroni recipe is also fast and simple. The longest part of the process is making the butternut cheese sauce, which actually only takes 20 minutes and can be prepped up to a few days in advance….

Butternut Squash Cheese Sauce

October 21, 2019 by Jen Leave a Comment

This vegan paleo butternut squash cheese sauce is nightshade free and made with a few simple ingredients so it comes together quickly and can be used throughout the week.

Cheese has stolen the hearts of many. Most people can’t fathom a life without cheese. This butternut squash cheese sauce was created for two reasons. 1. For a dairy free cheeseburger macaroni (recipe coming soon!) and 2. As a cheesy sauce to slather on things. Turns out, I also really like to add it to some rice pasta with some roasted broccoli (upgraded mac and cheese) or mix with some shredded chicken and add to a vegan cauliflower tortilla for a quick snack….

May 6, 2019 by Jen 6 Comments

A vegan, paleo 5 ingredient granola recipe that is sweetened with dates instead of refined sugar and absolutely delicious. Great for breakfast or dessert!

The simplicity of pouring a bowl of cereal in the morning for a quick breakfast goes out the window when you are following a paleo diet. You can buy pre-made granolas at a specialty store, but they are usually expensive and honestly, not that great. This almond pulp granola recipe has a sweet vanilla-y taste and comes together with something you would normally throw away….

Walnut Pesto Sauce

April 29, 2019 by Jen Leave a Comment

This vegan, dairy free and paleo pesto comes together quickly in a food processor and uses walnuts instead of pine nuts and cheese. Easy to store and perfect for quick weeknight meals.

Did you know traditional Italian pesto is made with a mortar and pestle? It’s a slow process that requires patience and an Italian heritage (probably). Here in America, we have a tendency to simplify those traditions. I haven’t been to Italy and I don’t have any Italian relatives, but I do love pesto. And I love anything that can be whipped up quickly (sorry Italian grandmas)….
