Paleo Baja Fish Tacos Recipe

Louise | August 6

Tacos are a perennial family favorite in my house. We always set them up like a buffet so everyone can serve themselves. That means that my sister can skip the onions, my father can turn up the spice, I can sneak a double helping of sauce, and everyone is happy. For a long time, we only made beef tacos but after I was introduced to these Paleo Baja fish tacos, I don’t know why we waited so long to switch it up. I was worried that fish tacos would be hard to make but these come together so quickly and they would be right at home on the menu of your favorite Mexican restaurant!

Paleo Burgers on Sesame Buns Recipe

Louise | August 6

There are plenty of bunless burger recipes out there but what if you are in one of those moods where nothing but the classic burger and bun combo will do? We have got your back with our Paleo burgers on sesame buns. It’s your traditional burger, meaty beef patty, lettuce, tomato, and onion, all on a soft sesame bun. The difference is you won’t find any grains in this bun, just coconut flour! These burgers may take a little effort to put together since you are making the buns yourself, but they are filling and just like the real thing! The buns should be enjoyed soon after coming out of the oven and sliced open once they are cool enough to handle.

Types of Sweet Potatoes (With Images) and Why You Should Be Eating Them

Louise | August 5

Confused about the types of sweet potatoes?

I lived on this island off the Southern coast of China for 3 months, and I survived in large part on sweet potatoes (in addition to salted duck eggs, roasted duck, and fresh fish!).

One of the things that always bothered me when living in China was I couldn’t tell what type of sweet potato I was buying. My friend, who is living in Okinawa, expressed the same problem.

So, when we discussed our favorite types (I know, it’s the sort of geeky conversation foodies indulge in!), we’d resort to laborious descriptions of what the skin looked like, what color the flesh was, how it tasted, etc.

So, when I spotted these 5 varieties of sweet potatoes in Whole Foods the other day, I decided to document them with photographs and notes!

Paleo Raspberry Swirl Ice Cream Recipe

Louise | August 5

I love vanilla ice cream. My sister and my friends relentlessly tease me for being boring but the truth is that I love the simplicity of vanilla. I don’t want any of this mint chocolate oreo fudge surprise, that’s too much for me. However, by the time the end of the summer rolls around, even I am starting to get board of plain vanilla. That’s where our Paleo raspberry swirl ice cream comes in. This three ingredient ice cream is the perfect middle ground between overly sweet and complicated flavors and basic vanilla. With creamy coconut and a tart raspberry swirl, this ice cream strikes the right balance between simplicity and excitement. Just be sure you have someone on hand to share it with or you might be tempted to eat the whole batch yourself!
