3 Ingredient Bacon Asparagus Frittata
Necessity is the mother of invention. When you have a bunch of beautiful, long-stemmed, slender asparagus waiting impatiently in your refrigerator to be the star or a lovely new recipe just as soon as you invent said recipe, well, there’s little time to waste. This…
Sweet Potato Frittata
This sweet potato frittata creation rose from the ashes of a recipe failure. Several days ago I came across a gorgeous recipe series titled For the Love of Pie, in particular a beautiful entry by Mimi Thorisson. Potatoes, bacon, onions and herbs… it’s all very…
Duck Bacon Winter Hash
Sometimes I have a Grinch moment, and I think “healthy seasonal food in the winter is ugly, and boring, and difficult, and time-consuming to prepare.” But I know that’s not the truth. Many traditional favorites do rely on truckloads of sugar in various forms to liven them…
Baked Bacon Cauliflower
Well, folks were very enthusiastic when I posted a test shot of this concept on Instagram two weeks ago. It’s a super simple idea, and I’ve been wondering if it would work for quite a while! I love roasted cauliflower and I love bacon, so this seemed…
Wild Thing Texas Chili
The idea for this Wild Thing Texas Chili started as my answer to the “what kind of chili do you like?” question, which came up over the Christmas holiday in Texas with my family. This isn’t the chili I was raised on, because that chili is…
Eggy Onion Breakfast Bread
What happens when onions, eggs and bacon are all you have in the fridge? You invent Eggy Onion Breakfast Bread! I could’ve simply served all three separately on a plate, I suppose, but where’s the fun in that? This breakfast bread has crumbled bacon worked…
Bacon Turmeric Quiche
A bacon turmeric quiche may sound bizarre, but if you have access to fresh turmeric then this is what you should be doing with it. I love quiche because it’s dead easy… and how many other dishes can seem effortlessly appropriate at both breakfast and…
Paleo Bacon-Wrapped Salmon Jalapeño “Poppers”
I wouldn’t especially call this a recipe. In fact, I intended to only share it on my Instagram (my favorite social media platform by far, on which I share “flash recipes” and little flavor hacks like this one).
Chicken Scallopini (with Zoodles)
This Chicken Scallopini is quite non-traditional. But that never stopped me before, and this version is delicious in its own way. I’d say it tastes both rich and fresh at the same time… although you might think that those are mutually exclusive characteristics! Traditional scallopini…
Coconut Banana Panna Cotta with Bacon and Chocolate
I had some vague idea of calling this recipe “Elvis Panna Cotta” (named after the famous flavors of his peanut butter, banana and bacon sandwich) but peanuts aren’t that exciting and the chocolate balances the taste of these beautifully. Sorry, Elvis. Banana and chocolate is such…
Primal Bacon Chicken Liver Pâté
Pâté makes for a nice autumnal spread, doesn’t it? Root vegetables to serve it with (instead of the usual bread), herbs, and mushrooms combine for a festive seasonal look. In addition to being pretty, pâté keeps well and wins convenience points: just slice it when you…
Sweet Potato Quiche
This creation rose from the ashes of a recipe failure. Several days ago I came across a gorgeous recipe series titled For the Love of Pie, in particular a beautiful entry by Mimi Thorisson. Potatoes, bacon, onions and herbs… it’s all very French countryside, rustic…
Bacon Stuffed Yuca Bites
It’s that time again, folks! I had a great time rising to the Paleo Pen Pals challenge for the month of May. This will be the third time I’ve participated, and each time I’ve pushed the boundaries of what I thought I could do in…
Carrots alla Carbonara
Incorporating more vegetables into your diet sounds incredibly boring and onerous, doesn’t it? If focusing on your macronutrient ratios sounds like it’ll make eating into a chore, then give these delicious Carrots alla Carbonara a try and you’ll have eaten an entire bowl of vegetables…
Egg Muffins
Yes, I’m adding my own version to the many, many egg muffin recipes already out there because this recipe works so well, yet begs for adaptation and substitution. I used mushrooms and mustard greens in this instance, but really you could replace the mustard greens…
