Grain-free Bacon and Shrimp Risotto (paleo, dairy-free, low-carb + keto)
A light keto risotto made grain-free and keto with shredded daikon, a mild radish that acts similarly to rice when cooked. Topped with crispy keto bacon and fresh parsley. Maybe you’ve made keto cauliflower rice before? Well, let me introduce you to the concept of shredding daikon and using it as a keto replacement for…
Coconut Cauliflower Rice
Bits of cauliflower enveloped in a toasted coconut milk and cardamom sauce. Coconut “rice” without the grains or starch. My girl Melissa from Clothes Make the Girl just launched her new cookbook, Well Fed 2 – a collection of recipes for people who love to eat. People who love to eat? That’s ME! (And I…
Vegan Masala Basmati Casserole + Exclusive Facebook Contests and Recipes
I haven’t shared an Indian themed recipe in a long, long time. In fact, it took a couple of readers sending me requests before I realized it was about time I jumped back on the masala train and got to preparing some new Indian dishes for the blog. Is it weird that I’ve been enjoying…

Creamy Chicken Risotto
3 entrees in one week? I don’t think this has ever happened on the blog. I’m the girl that enjoys pancakes for dinner, gluten-free cupcakes in the afternoon, and chowing down on homemade granola… not gushing over a rib-sticking, comforting meal. Hypothetically if my sweet tooth were to never return, I think it’s fair to…
South Indian Rice with Lentils (Bisi Bele Bhath)
One-pot meals are the bee’s knees, wouldn’t you agree? The prep time is minimal, ingredients are simple, your kitchen doesn’t get all messy, and dinner is ready in under an hour. I like that. If that’s not enough, one-pot meals leave you with leftovers; and from the feedback you’ve left on the meal planning giveaway…

Just last night, I was contemplating trying my hand at making a potporri using all the garam masala ingredients to infuse our…
Gluten-free Wild Rice and Mushroom Stuffing
What a Thanksgiving dinner we had last night! The pumpkins were a plenty, the conversation was deep, and the UNO cards were flying! Not only that, but we made great progress on my office. More on that tomorrow. I headed to Superstore late Sunday night to pick up some last minute items – mushrooms, a…
How to make Homemade California Rolls
Homemade California rolls were a huge part of my life as a holistic nutrition student. The girls and I would get together on a Saturday afternoon; each required to bring one random sushi ingredient, and the host would be responsible for preparing the grains. Some weekends we’d have wild rice + yam rolls with spicy…
Saweet Pecan and Wild Rice Salad
Do you people watch? If you haven’t tried it, you must! It’s a great way to pass time, especially at the airport! I was in line at the post office yesterday and as always, was observing the people around me. There was a lady that kept checking her phone for what must have been an…
