My entry for the Puretaste/Kettle & Fire recipe contest! Flavor packed, warm-you-to-the-bone soup recipe that is the perfect combination of umami and heat.

This salad is refreshingly delicious, beautiful, hearty, and a textural partay in your mouth! Perfect for summer and what salad dreams are made of.

I've rounded up a few of my favorite mexican-inspired recipes, making it easy for you to plan the perfect menu for your Whole30 Cinco de Mayo Party!

FINALLY posting a recipe for this perfect, every-day, good on EVERYTHING, super flexible and delicious VINAIGRETTE! I have been making this for the last year and now I'm finally getting around to sharing the love. I like a little sweetness in my salad dressing, but these days, I've been trying to stick to natural sweeteners. In THIS recipe, the unexpected star of the show that lends some sweetness AND awesome texture to the dressing is... (if you haven't guessed it by the title)... APPLESAUCE!

If you don't eat applesauce often, just buy the little cups like I do! The unsweetened "store brand" variety is my go-to. BONUS, the plastic cup acts as your measuring cup for the oil and vinegar (since this recipe is based on equal parts of all three). Easy. Healthy. Tasty. What more could you ask for?

Loaded with hash browns, asparagus, red bell peppers, and garlic & herb goat cheese, this is a breakfast you'll be happy to eat ANY day of the week!

I can not get enough of buffalo chicken flavored things. Make this Buffalo Chicken Salad for meal prep and you'll be set for lunches for the entire week!

These green beans roast up beeeeaaauuutifully and make the perfect side to any meal! They are super simple and can be made with only 5 ingredients.

Banana. Bread. Baked. Oatmeal.  It's made with old fashioned oats, mashed banana, almond milk, and a touch of honey for sweetness.  Not an unhealthy ingredient in sight - yet it somehow comes together into this dense, moist, almost cake-like banana goodness.

The best of both worlds! Creamy mashed potatoes on the inside, crispy potato skin on the outside! These potatoes are super garlicky with an extra veggie boost from the spinach!

I've rounded up a few of my favorite snacks, apps, and party food! Most of these recipes are Paleo/Whole30 (except for the BBQ Chicken Pizza), but ALL of them are non-whole30-er approved and delicious!
