Today's guest post is from the lovely, beautiful, and wonderful mother of A Dash of Delish! She has been so kind to take the time to write, cook, photograph and enjoy this dessert recipe for me while my computer has been on the fritz! Here is to hoping that my computer will be fixed by the end of this evening! I hope you all enjoy this decadent post!
Last week was just terrible for my food blog! I started on Tuesday fully intending to get back into the grove of twice-a-week postings. I was making banana bread which for some reason I had been wanting forever! I was even almost done making it and I got to the point where you have to cook it in the oven for about 40 minutes and within 15 it was burnt to a crisp while still being completely raw inside. I cried. Seriously! Not because I couldn't do the blog but because I knew I wouldn't be eating banana bread that day!
Here's another Morel recipe for all those Morel lovers out there! It takes a little bit of effort and patience to get them this good but after taking the time to hunt for them this is nothing. I also found to really crank these puppies out it worked well to team up with another person.
I'm basically doing a post on this recipe just to separate it from the main dish that I actually made this with this past weekend. I figured instead of doing one really long post that's pretty much a whole meal with several recipes that I would break it down and do links to each other instead.
Hey everyone! Adam and I are going to be switching it up a bit for the next month or so. Adam recently read Your Personal Paleo Code: The 3-Step Plan to Lose Weight, Reverse Disease, and Stay Fit and Healthy for Life by Chris Kresser and in it he talks about how to reset your diet and body. To do this you remove any potential pro-inflammatory foods from the agricultural and industrial age even though you may not be specifically sensitive to them. It then allows you to add different foods back into your diet, and in doing so you can self-experiment to help you decide if you have any reactions to any of these foods.
Well here I am attempting to make brussels sprouts that are edible. I've been shying away from this vegetable for so long in the grocery store because of all of the unsuccessful brussels spouts I've tasted over my time. I do have one memory of having some brussels sprouts that I thought where really good, perhaps that is why I haven't given up on them completely.
I had the joy of making this recipe for my family while I was at my parents for the holidays. It was Adam's idea and I must say I was a bit skeptical with being stuck in my old ways. The way I used to make chili was with meat, beans, and veggies. Making a more paleo friendly chili meant taking out the beans. I thought if you were to do that, then it is not chili!
Adam and I were at Thanksgiving with my family's side this year and my aunt Sue brought some honey, potatoes, and carrots fresh from her back yard. So of course I had to get a jar of honey and a bag filled with potatoes and carrots. Not to mention these carrots were huge because at first I thought they were sweet potatoes!
It's just been one of those weeks where you seem to be putting all this effort and work into things but it still feels like you are getting nothing done. We've all had those weeks and if you haven't then you are one lucky duck.
This post is going to be a little different than what is normally expected. Meaning no there will be no recipe. If you were looking for a recipe and don't want to hear me ramble about the way we eat then please read no further! ;)
There aren't many things that beat a nice crunchy delicious chip! Whether you like veggie chips, potato chips, or tortilla chips. They are great on their own or they are great when dipped into the plethora of dip options that we have today.
The reason I say Wisconsin is because I was born and raised there... but also because Wisconsin is known for beer and cheese! So yes this is specifically Wisconsin soup ;) Adam came home one night and said that he wanted to try making cheese soup. We looked at some recipes, made our own adjustments, and created this:
This is one of my new favorite dishes! I was never much of a sea food fan or a mushroom lover, but for some reason the combination of all these things together just creates a mouth watering meal. Fish is a healthy food to include in your diet and is something that we strive to consume about a half pound of oily fish such as salmon each week. Oily fish like salmon, sardines, and anchovies are a great source of long chain omega-3 fatty acids that help to balance out omega-6 levels in the tissues of the body. It is a good idea to avoid alcohol when consuming fish because mixing alcohol with polyunsaturated fats can cause peroxidization which can result in highly toxic compounds that can damage DNA and cause atherosclerosis. There is a lot of effort that goes into this meal so the directions are a bit lengthy, but just hang in there because the results are worth it!
