food with a purpose
Are you looking for an easy weeknight meal? Here you go! These Teriyaki Chicken Thighs are finger lickin’ good & can be tossed in the crockpot, then forgotten for a while! @cocos_paleo_kitchen is LOST! I created this recipe a few months back and shared it on my IG over at @cocos_paleo_kitchen BUT guess what???? My…
One of my favorite memories as a child, was having tomato soup and grilled cheese on a chilly/rainy day. Did my mom make tomato soup from scratch? Nope. It was from a can. Still loved it thought! It’s been years since I had this combo but now that I’ve created this Creamy Tomato Basil Soup,…
Reese’s have always been a favorite of mine growing up. I had a certain way of eating them too! After giving up peanut butter (tummy issues), I was sad that these little cups wouldn’t be a fun treat anymore. Nowadays, you can go grab little cups made with almond butter or cashew butter – so…
Happy new year! Hope your new year is starting off good! We (unfortunately) started off with the dreaded rona. Actually, I say ‘dreaded’ but in all honesty, we had a mild case. I’m thankful that my worst symptom was a burning sore throat and one night of a fever – but that was it. We…
These Paleo Pumpkin Muffins w/Cream “Cheese” have been on my mind to make! I went back and forth with a cupcake & frosting or a muffin with filling. In my typical Coco fashion, I took the easy route. “Filling” them was much easier because once they are out of the oven, they are done. No…
Woohoo! I finally figured out how to get some content on my site! It’s been quite a while since I’ve posted a recipe. It’s because I had no idea how to navigate the upgraded word press. I know …..it was probably easier than I thought but I just don’t like change! LOL. Dairy Free Spinach…
One of my favorite things to eat in the summer months, is a good macaroni salad! Did I ever think that a macaroni salad could be paleo-fied?? Nope. Not really! But alas – I found Jovial Grain Free Pasta and was able to make an amazing Paleo Macaroni Salad! Pasta Wannabes So, as I ventured…
Have you ever gone to Costco hungry?? Well, that is exactly what happened to me the last time I visited Costco! I bought everything that remotely looked good to me. I rarely crave fruit but the berries were calling my name! As you know, you can’t just buy a small container. I thought I could…
There aren’t many soups that I like (or love) but ….Tortilla Soup was definitely one of them! If you know me, you know that I like to add crunch to any meal. When I gave up grains/gluten, I would order Tortilla Soup without the tortilla’s (meh). I loved that crunch in my soup! So …making…
Time flies when you’re having fun! I made these little patties in early November and completely forgot to post them here! Looking back, I remember that I was craving meatloaf but wasn’t ready to wait for a loaf to cook up. I opted to take an easy way out and that’s how these Pan Fried…
I don’t know about you but I have loved the Bacon & Gruyere Egg Bites at SBux for quite some time. I actually found myself grabbing some a couple of times per week, as I went into work last year. For the past 3ish months, I have been trying to recreate a bit of a…
