Happy Halloween! I’ve been obsessed with the Jack-O-Lantern Stuffed Pepper trend ever since I first seen it a few years back, so this Halloween I knew I had to hop on board! I stuffed these “Pep-O-Lanterns” with a mixture of Turkey, Sweet Potatoes, Peas, and lots of Fresh Herbs & Spices!

This dish combines the flavors of Fall with the festiveness of Halloween and I’m totally here for it! It’s also loaded with Protein and super low on Fat, so you can save your calories here and indulge a little extra on some Halloween candy tonight😋 Please be safe & smart if you plan on going out tonight! 👻

Happy National Chocolate Day! My boyfriend Jimmy and I are currently on our way to Hershey, PA and we’re staying in a 100 Square Ft. Tiny House for the night! Since we’re headed to the Chocolate Capital of the world, I decided to whip up this Chicken Mole to bring with us and really set the mood! Classic Mexican spices like Cumin & Chili Powder are paired with Cacao & Cinnamon to literally create a flavor fiesta in your mouth!

I’ve used Coconut Sugar when making this dish is the past, but have since removed it and subbed Dates in its place! I found that the Mole Sauce actually tasted better using Dates and kept it 100% Whole30 Compliant as well! Cashew Butter is always my go-to, but feel free to try Almond Butter or even Sunflower Butter if you’re looking to keep this dish Nut Free as well. This meal is Gluten/Dairy/Soy/Refined Sugar Free and will be simmering in your slow cooker all day long so you won’t have to be tied to the kitchen!

I'd love to take credit for this next recipe, but it was actually my boyfriend, Jimmy, who came up with the idea! He's always loved Hamburger Helper and challenged me to make a Whole30 version of one of his favorite childhood foods. Being that Noodles & Cheese are basically 2/3 of the dish, I knew I was going to have to do A LOT of replacing to make my version Whole30 compliant.

I replaced the noodles with roasted Cauliflower Florets, the cheese with a creamy Cashew Queso sauce, and even added some Taco Seasoning, Peppers, & Onions to take the flavor up another notch and sneak in some more veggies! Lastly, I blended up some Nuts to recreate the little topping packet that some of the Hamburger Helper meals would come with! Jimmy & the whole family loved this dish and I'll definitely be recreating another variation again soon! Enjoy your Sunday Funday!

With so many Fall flavors hitting my plate as of recently, I’ve been craving something “different” and wanted to switch it up with something a bit more reminiscent of Summer! These Slow Cooker Orange Mango Chicken Thigh meals have all the cozy Fall feels, but with touches of Tropical flavor Fresh Mango & Fruit Juices balance out the heat from the Curry Powder & Jalapeño, almost giving this dish a sweet heat effect.

All the flavors come together at the bottom of your Slow Cooker where your Sweet Potatoes are marinating for 6+ hours soaking it all up! Serve with a side of Cauliflower Rice and you’ve got yourself a Gluten/Dairy/Soy/Refined Sugar Free Meal that’ll keep you fueled and filled all day!

My favorite part of cooking is finding ways to incorporate seasonal produce throughout common dishes that everyone loves, completely changing their flavor. In addition to fresh herbs such as Rosemary, Thyme, & Sage, I decided to infuse my latest “Spaghetti & Meatball” spinoff with both Apple & Pumpkin to really give this recipe a fresh Fall taste!

My “Fall Fusion Marinara” uses Pumpkin & Coconut Milk to keep this sauce super creamy as well as Applesauce to add just a hint of sweetness. Cinnamon & Pumpkin Pie Spice are mixed with Italian Seasonings to blend all of these flavors together to perfection! Pair with a side of veggie noodles, or if you’re following a Paleo diet, serve with a side of Jovial Grain Free Penne to get your pasta on! This is without a doubt my new favorite take on Spaghetti & Meatballs and I highly recommend it! Not only is it Gluten/Dairy/Soy/Refined Sugar Free, but its DAMN tasty!

From Thanksgiving Dinner Cupcakes to Mexican Mini Meatloaves, I’m clearly obsessed with adorable entrees! This week, I decided to combine all the things I love about Buffalo Chicken Dip into a bite sized meal.

I started off with a Ground Chicken base and added Onions, Celery, & Hot Sauce to create the perfect “dip-cake”. Then I topped each one off with a portion of Sour Cream & Chive Mashed Potatoes to add that creamy element you’d find in just about any Buffalo Chicken Dip.

All you need is a bag of potatoes, a container of Forager Sour Cream, and some spices…they’re that simple! Lastly I finished them off with a pipette of The New Primal Hot Sauce and Wasabi Ranch just in case anyone was looking for that extra kick! It’s a super filling meal that’s packed with protein & veggies, and also stores amazingly for meal preps!

Growing up Italian, Chicken Parmesan is a dish I’m very familiar with! Crispy pan fried chicken, topped with a layer of robust marinara sauce and bubbly mozzarella cheese, sitting on top of a sky high pile of al dente pasta…what’s not to love?!? Unfortunately, the version I was used to eating as a child was loaded with things like Gluten, Soy, Dairy, and even Added Sugars so I made a few changes to fully revamp one of my favorite childhood foods!

My Chicken “Parmesan” recipe is the perfect intro food to anyone looking to eat a cleaner lifestyle since it tastes identical to the traditional dish, but without any of the guilt! I replaced your standard pasta with a side of Palmini Linguine which is made entirely from vegetables and comes in at only 20 Calories per serving! I also swapped out the mozzarella with Miyokos Vegan Mozz to give you all the same flavors and melty goodness as the cheese you may be used too, but without any of the dairy!

Classic Comfort Food meets Spaghetti Squash in one of my favorite Fall meals! My Slow Cooker Sloppy Joe’s are naturally sweetened with Dates, which adds just the right amount of sweetness to this otherwise savory dish.

While all the flavors are marinating together in your slow cooker, Spaghetti Squash is coated in Coconut Oil, then oven roasted to perfection before being stuffed with Sloppy Joe’s and served piping hot🤤 This entire meal is Paleo & Whole30 Compliant as well as Dairy, Gluten, Soy, & Refined Sugar Free!

General Tsos Chicken was one of my favorite things to get when I ordered Chinese takeout, but ever since I’ve started making it myself, I haven’t touched a takeout menu once! This General Tsos Sauce is sweetened naturally with dates, then kicked up just a few notches with the addition of some Fresh Garlic, Ginger, and Chili Hot Sauce.

It's the perfect blend of Sweet with a touch of Spicy! It’s Gluten, Dairy, & Refined Sugar Free as well so you won’t have to feel guilty when you go back for seconds I prefer making it with Chicken Thighs as they tend to stay moist and hold up well for meal preps, but I’ve also made this dish with Chicken Breast in the past and have had great results! Serve it with a side of Fried Cauliflower Rice or Fresh Steamed Broccoli and you’ve got yourself Whole30 & Paleo Compliant takeout🥢

Last week I made Thanksgiving Dinner cupcakes, and since they were such a hit, I decided to do another spin on them this week with these adorable Mexican Mini Meatloafs!

I used Ground Beef, Bell Peppers, & Onions seasoned with Siete Mild Taco Seasoning to create a perfectly seasoned meatloaf mixture, then topped it with Cinnamon Spiced Mashed Plantains which resulted in a sweet & savory combination that left my taste buds craving more(I can seriously eat 3 of these in one sitting🤤).

Garnish each one with a slice of Jalapeño Pepper for that little extra kick, or at least for a photo cause it looks so damn cute! I served mine with a side of Sautéed Garlic Spinach as well as Salsa & Dairy Free Sour Cream!

Happy Hump Day! If you’re a fan of Middle Eastern Food, this Whole30 Compliant NafNafGrill Knockoff Bowl I put together will totally cure your cravings! The Chicken Shawarma marinade is so simple to put together and requires absolutely no work at all once it hits your Slow Cooker! When the Chicken comes out so flavorful and tender that it barely even requires any shredding with a fork, you know you did something right!

Ditch the rice & grains, and pair it with a side of Cauliflower Tabbouleh made with Cece’s Veggie Co. Cauliflower Rice to keep this dish Gluten Free, Grain Free, and 100% Delicious! I’ve also included a recipe for Sugar Free Pickled Red Onions as well as a a super simple Tahini Dressing! Get yourself a jar of Kalamata Olives, and if you’re feeling cheesy, a block of Violife’s Vegan Feta Cheese (not Whole30 compliant, but so tasty) and dig in!

Stuffed Squash is one of my favorite meals because the options are literally endless! From dinners to desserts, Squash can be used in so many different ways and filled with either sweet or savory stuffings that can completely change the flavor of the dish itself. These Autumn Stuffed Acorn Squash truly are a Fall flavor festival in your mouth and a perfect match for anyone who enjoys a sweet & savory combination!

The Sweet Apple, Salty Caramelized Onions, Nutty Acorn Squash, & Fresh Thyme & Rosemary all pair PERFECTLY together! I also used Bilinski Sausage “Spinach & Spring Greens Organic Chicken Sausage” which really made this a hearty meal and also added a nice serving of greens in! It’s also fully cooked and casing free so you don’t have to worry about any additional work there! I promise this meal is much easier than it looks, and stores great in the fridge as Meal Preps for up to a week!
