If you read my ramblings on my Paleo Chicken Alfredo Pasta post, you know how I feel about cashew butter. On its own, I think it tastes “funky”… a little too cheesy/sweet for me. However, that cheesy/sweet weirdness is what led me to make my favorite Alfredo sauce ever. So, this time, I decided to take that inspiration in more of a sweet direction… a cheesecake direction to be…
If you’ve been with me on my blogging journey for awhile, you’ve seen many grocery haul posts. Well, I decided to do this one slightly different– and I’m hoping the extra effort will make it just a bit more helpful to you guys.

I set out this afternoon with plans of making another egg muffin recipe to carry us through breakfast the next few days. Dathan picked up some Paleo/Whole30 approved Fra’Mani Chorizo Sausage (my fav…) from Whole Foods that I couldn’t wait to use, and I figured I would contrast the flavors with some sweet potato for the perfect breakfast muffin on-the-go.
