Quick update blog! I found a mistake in my tracking spreadsheet which was throwing off my goals chart (it looked like something was wrong to me and I wasn’t going to stop til I found it!). Anyway, it means I am WAY behind on all my goals. I can’t really catch up on some of […]
Paleo Bread
I got it in my head a few days ago that I wanted to try making the Paleo bread recipe I had seen on Carrots N Cake. The recipe wasn’t from her but from Elana’s Pantry (click for recipe). I tossed around the different recipes she had but finally settled on the one recommended by […]
Baked Grapefruit
All you need is 1 Grapefruit and Toppings (cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar, honey, chopped nuts, etc.) If you are making this in a conventional oven (verses a toaster oven), preheat it to 350 degrees. 1.

Quick Chicken Cacciatore & Iced Coffee
I don’t know if this actually qualifies as chicken “cacciatore” but that is what I’m going to call it! Here is my creation for dinner today: I just threw 2 diced chicken breasts in a pan on medium heat and put the lid on. While that cooked, I chopped a red pepper, a zucchini, […]
