Winter is here, and it’s freezing cold outside…so we’re warming up this week with Italian Wedding Soup: a yummy, comforting soup that you’re going to love! Inspiration for this gluten free recipe courtesy of All Day I Dream About Food. If avoiding dairy, omit the parmesan cheese.
This recipe for a fresh, delicious sauce works fantastically well with zoodles – zucchini “noodles” – a perfect substitute for regular pasta for those of us who are avoiding grains.
You can find them already prepared in many grocery stores. For zoodles cooking directions, look here.*)
The sauce takes a little extra time, but it’s well worth it! Enjoy!!
This simple, delicious recipe uses turkey Italian sausage and Tuscan kale as the main ingredients in the soup, and to keep it Paleo friendly, we’ve substituted cauliflower for the traditionally used red potatoes.
The seasonings in the sausage and sweetness of the kale will fill your kitchen with a fabulous aroma. It’s so quick and easy, you can have it on the table in about 30 minutes!
It’s even better the next day, warmed up for lunch. We think it will become one of your favorites once you give it a try.
As we prepare to gather around the table for Thanksgiving, we know it can be a challenge to find recipes that are comforting and familiar but allow us to stick with our eating plan.
This week we’re offering a recipe for a paleo stuffing inspired by Paleo Running Momma. This fantastic dish will go perfectly with your turkey dinner!
The temperatures are dropping and it’s time to break out the soup recipes! Here’s one that highlights a vegetable that isn’t usually the star of the show: celery.
This creamy celery soup recipe inspired by downshiftology.com is gluten free and diary free…totally delicious and satisfying! For a vegetarian version, simply replace the bone broth with vegetable broth.
We admit it…we can hardly wait for the weather to chill off enough so we can enjoy a hearty bowl of chili! And here’s a perfect recipe for the crock pot adapted from Sugar Free Mom.

Lunch can sometimes be a tough meal to plan for. There are days you don’t get time away from the office to actually eat a decent meal. Other times, you just don’t have time in the morning to pack yourself something.
And remember, lunch is a great time to get in your veggies! Check out our Eat Your Veggies post for reminders on how you can work them into your lunches.
