The Pomegranate Chronicles

This is a quick and easy recipe for those who are looking for low carb menu options. I found it when browsing my original search for low carb diets. It is one of the many great recipes published by Laura Dolson on About.com. Find the recipe here. It takes about 20 mins from start to serving [...]

I am loving my new menus with low carb options, but there are a few things I miss. Crunchy breaded dinners are one. On a whim I decided to make Chicken Cordon Blue. I’ve mentioned many times how much I love the cookbook “Paleo Comfort Foods”. One of my “go to” recipes is the “Fried [...]

Easter was awesome. I am trying very hard to get all the chocolate out of my house, unfortunately, most of it is ending up in my mouth! It’s been a week of leftovers. My Mother prepared our family traditional Pineapple Glazed Ham. I was amazed to see she was about to throw away the bone (she NEVER [...]

A protein packed Paleo treat!

I’ve been making “quiche surprise” every week. It consists of whatever veggies are leftover at the end of the week. This week, it was bacon and kale. Bacon Kale Quiche: 1 bunch kale (pieces) 6 strips of cooked bacon (chopped) 1 small onion (chopped) 1 cup sharp cheddar (I use Cabot) 8 eggs 1 cup [...]

Better late than never, I always say… Knitting: This is a better picture of the lovely yarn I used in {this moment} from last week. Many of you were interested in knowing more, so here’s the more! This is still a hard representation of the color. It’s a bit more red and has a sheen [...]

Inspired by this cupcake by Claire Wise, I decorated some cupcakes to take to our Tae Kwon Do Valentine’s Day party. Although new at confection creativeness, I took a stab at decorating them as beautifully as she did. They are super cute, but I need practice with decorating with icing. I baked and decorated four dozen for [...]

I usually consider a fritatta to have bread. This one is a breadless firttata with a fresh twist. Found in the “Rest of Bridge” volume two, this recipe says the smell will get everyone out of bed, I say just mixing the ingredients will! The aroma of fresh basil, sundried tomatoes and green chiles waft out of the mixing bowl [...]
