Tis the season to pick, eat, and bake apples... but it is not the season to feel like a ton of bricks after eating said apples. We have baked this recipe thousands of times to get it perfect for you, and because we wanted an excuse to keep eating it ;) We have finally perfected it and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Read MorePOW! Ranch Dressing :: And it's Paleo
We love ranch dressing...I repeat WE LOVE RANCH DRESSING! But, the ranch dressing found in stores, on salad bars and served in restaurants is filled with junk oils, preservatives and other random ingredients...remember, if you aren't sure what an ingredient actually is you shouldn't eat it. As you can see below this recipe is a small number of whole/simple ingredients. We use this with our Paleo Buffalo Wings, as a dip for veggies and more. And you can store it in the fridge for up to 2 weeks...that is if you don't use it all before then ;) Enjoy!

Read MoreSaaaaaweeeeeet Potato Pancakes
One of the biggest complaints we hear from people who are going gluten free is that they will miss all the breads and soft/fluffy textures of "baked goods"...enter this recipe for Sweet Potato Pancakes to shatter this notion. These pancakes are the perfect amount of sweet with an really nice soft texture. They are great for a Sunday morning breakfast...we love to have them during our "breakfast for dinner" nights. Enjoy!
Read More"That" Guacomole
Have you ever made something and brought it to a party and everyone says "how did you make that"...this guacamole is "that" guacamole.

This guac is so simple and easy to make and so fresh and yummy...we put this on just about everything and sometimes even eat it straight up. Enjoy!
Read MoreKeepin' It Real :: Paleo Buffalo Wings
A lot of people think about eating clean as a "burden" or something that takes away all the good stuff. This recipe directly defies that notion...it has all the taste of those dirty foods, but is a clean and healthy snack. Something about football being on TV that causes us to make these...and we generally deliver on the urge. The interesting thing about them is how simple they are and how few the ingredients are...we have tried making buffalo wings with all kinds of crazy recipes and complicated ingredients, but good old Frank's Red Hot sauce seems to be the one that delivers best (and the ingredients are good to go)...we keep it Paleo by using Coconut oil. Thanks to Dianne "Meme" Morgan for inspiring this recipe!

We've gotten really into plantains lately so this is the first of a few great recipes with them. A close friend of ours, Brittany Gonzalez, who owns La Banana Frita has inspired us with her amazing uses of plantains...if you live anywhere near CLE make sure to check her out. One of our favorite plantain dishes is hash browns...they are so quick and easy to make and you can serve with breakfast, lunch or dinner (or as a snack). For this recipe we kept it super simple, but feel free to try different spice/flavor combos to your liking.
