Chopped Thai Salad with Coconut-Curry Dressing

Um, yes. This. So much yes. Make it. I was looking at recipe collections one day for some ideas. I feel like I’ve been in a little bit of dry streak with my recipe game, so I needed to try some new stuff that fits the diet and makes me think outside the box a…

Food Porn: Disneyland Cheddar Cheese Corn “Dog”

Archaellys and I were in Disneyland recently, which means all diet and healthier eating goes out the window. With the amount of steps you’re racking up on your FitBit, you can afford to indulge a little bit anyway, right? Well one of the days in the park, Arc and I decided to get corn dogs…

A Few Changes and My Own Come to Jesus Moment with Food

So I have to admit a few things here.  I originally started this blog to share the healthier versions of recipes that I was creating and cooking.  I used to follow a loose paleo/primal style food plan with room for exceptions.  I also used to take pride in discovering and figuring out different ways of…

Happy Thanksgiving!

It might technically not be Thanksgiving day anymore, but that doesn’t mean that I’m not thankful.  I finally woke up long enough from my post-feast food haze to make this image for you guys, wishing you a (now belated) happy thanksgiving and showing you my feast foods from this year. The food was pretty much…

Food Porn: Steak Dinner

This was a birthday present to Arc’s ma, who had been wanting a steak dinner for quite some time.  Everything was something that she mentioned that she wanted and I hope she enjoyed her birthday dinner, which was more than a month ago.  That’s how behind I am with posting. Arc was in charge of…

Food Porn: Asian Night

Guys… I feel terribad… I can’t find the recipe I wrote down for the char siu marinade. HOLY CRAP.  WTF.  STOP THE PRESSES!  Okay, okay, I can calm my tots.  I’ll give it another stab and make char siu again, this time with red food dye of some sort so it has that classic red…

Food Porn: Sausage Fest

Arc and I ended up revisiting a little bangers and mash, but for this movie night extravaganza, we used sausage as the theme.  Because we were watching the Super Mario Bros movie, we needed mushrooms in some form or another.  These criminis are stuffed with a mix of regular pork sausage, onions, and cheese.  Cook…

Food Porn: Bacon Mac and Cheese

Hnnnnggggghhhhhhh… bacon. This is food porn because the recipe for mac and cheese is here and all I did differently was add bacon and frozen peas.  But wait, this bacon for this particular shot is actually a BACON BOWL.  I’m not going to lie, you totally don’t need a Bacon Bowl.  You can do something…

Taco Night

Ummmm… tacos.  Yes.  I love tacos. I dunno that I actually have to post a recipe for these, but let me know in the comments if you think I should or if you have any specific questions.  There’s so many pieces to assembling tacos like this that maybe I just don’t know where to begin….

Food Porn: Pizookie

Yessssss…. Paleo Pizookie, where have you been my entire life?  Find the recipe here.  I just didn’t have cast iron pans so I made it in a 8×8″ pan and cut it into bars.  I might have un-paleo’d it though with some whipped cream that has some Bailey’s in it.  Oops.

Food Porn: Nick’s Family Restaurant

  Seriously Snarfy?  No posts for almost a month?  WTF? I’m sorry, people.  I’m working on catching up.  I promise.  Life has just been… well… life.  In the meantime, here’s some food porn from a local favorite.  It’s a Joe’s Special with jack cheese and home fries.  OM NOM NOM!
