There’s something about Italian food that gives me that ‘comfort’ feeling. It’s hearty, filling, and always hits the spot. Of course, it also typically includes gluten, grains, or cheese of some sort that’s going to make me feel guilty (not to mention lethargic & bloated) the next day. In comes one of my favorite dishes I’ve been making forever: “Sausage & Peppers”. It’s an Italian-American classic that is…
After completing my second round of Whole30, and successfully avoiding sweets & treats of any kind for thirty days, it feels good to be back with a new Paleo dessert recipe! This one started off as a new cookie recipe I wanted to test out during one of my “Sunday recipe testing” days. I soon realized, however, that the cookie “dough” I had whipped up was just not firm…
