mmm…food. I have a deep and devout relationship with food. We’ve had our ups and downs over the years, but I think we’ve finally begun to figure each other out and now we’re honeymooning.

As a teenager, I used food as a means of control, which led to eating disorders of many types. Through food education and LOADS of love and support from my tiny gang, food and I are now besties. I nourish my body with tasty and healthy-indulgent treats. I find food extremely fascinating – from a celluar level to sweet memory making with my family. It is a center of community and a grand source of sharing love. Food can literally feed the soul and warm the heart!

Here I will share recipes and ideas that will ignite your taste buds and leave your body and soul feeling uplifted. I have found through much experimentation that a Paleo inspired lifestyle works for our family. With that said, most of my recipes will be Paleo but those that aren’t will always be gluten free. Oh, and you won’t find one recipe here that hasn’t been taste tested by three kiddos and an extremely supportive husband. Many friends and family have also shared their feedback as well, leading to tweaking and playing to get the recipes as close as possible to absolutely delicious – with a capital D.

I hope you and yours enjoy them as much as our family has!
