My advance copy of Make it Paleo II arrived and oh baby… it’s soooo good. This recipe (which they said I could share!) is for all you guys that have been asking me what to do with sardines 🙂 I still can’t get #SpunkyGinger to eat them any other way than straight from the can,…
Pho: Vietnamese Bone Broth
Kelly: My husband gets an idea to make a recipe… like twice a year (I’m laughing now 🙂 ). Last time it was a Thai dish, this time it’s Vietnamese. He wanted to make pho, a super rich bone broth (which is soooo good for you), slow cooked with lots of fragrant spices. Getting the spices…

We’re giving away a package containing 8 bars (1 of each flavor), plus a signed copy of my Paleo Chocolate Lovers’ Cookbook and Dairy-Free Ice Cream book. For a…
Reflecting on 2014
This Christmas marked six months that we have been living in this house in Southern California. It doesn’t feel like it’s been that long! We miss the pool and hot tub at the condo we were renting down the street from this house, but having a big patio and yard is so nice. Usually there are…
White Chocolate Chai Gluten-Free Cookies
Are you as psyched that it’s Christmas as I am?! The tree, the lights, the music, the food, the books. Oh man, I probably say this every year (okay I’m positive that I say this every year) but if you have kids then you MUST get them Christmas in Noisy Village, and then you will have to…
Monkey Bread “Cupcakes”, Every Last Crumb
I’ve always said that eating this way—without gluten, grains, or dairy—can be just as good as the alternative, or… dare I say, better. My good friend, Brittany has really proven that fact in her book, Every Last Crumb, which is a true masterpiece. I wouldn’t have asked to need to eat this way, but ten years ago…
Dairy-Free Cheeseburger Soup
Lately I have been craving ground beef. I take this as my body’s way of telling me that I need to eat it. So one night I decided to make cheeseburger soup. I’ve been creating recipes for long enough to know that I was most definitely not the first person to think of this 🙂…
Loaded Spaghetti Squash
I’ve been making double batches of the shreddable cheese for Ashley and I. We haven’t found anything we don’t like it on. Hot green beans or peas, salad, wilted spinach, baked potatoes. The list goes on and on. If you put it on something hot it melts into sauce. Oh. My. Gooooooodness. This was one…
Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls
I released this recipe last month in my Spunky Newsletter, but so many people emailed me, asking if I would post it online (so they can bookmark it, Pin it, etc.) So here it is! These Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls are so yummy! Just like the original gluten-free cinnamon rolls recipe they’re based on, these have…
Real Life Paleo
There is another new book that I just can’t keep to myself! Matt and Stacy’s Real Life Paleo, which is 35% off right now. I made their Mac-n-Cheese with acorn squash. I added some onion and garlic powder, and smoked paprika, because I can’t make anything without those spices right now. I used bacon grease…
