Sweet BBQ Chicken & Mango Salad
These last few weeks have been absolutely crazy. Work has been super busy from finishing up projects to training someone to take over my role. Looking for houses has been exhausting. We put in an offer and had it accepted by a home we really love, however there are potentially some serious foundation issues, which…

Blackberry Swirl Ice Cream – with Recipe!
I completely forgot to attach the recipe to my previous post this week. It might be helpful! 🙂

Blackberry Swirl Coconut Milk Ice Cream
This may be the first real dessert I have posted on Sweet Paleo! Once I mastered how to make coconut milk ice cream I have been trying to come up with different flavors then just plain vanilla. I bought some fresh blackberries at the Farmer’s Market downtown last week and they seemed to be going…

Paleo Chicken Enchiladas!!!
I am so excited about this recipe that it totally deserves three exclamation points in the title. I have been looking for a great Paleo tortilla recipe for quite a while. There are a lot floating out there on the internet but nothing every really seemed like something I wanted to make until now. I…

Roasted Chicken Sausages, Sweet Potatoes and Brussels Sprouts
We no longer have a grill since moving to Austin and haven’t found one that we like just yet. My normal go-to meal during the week is some kind of grilled meat (chicken, fish, steaks, burgers, etc.) with veggies, so lately I’ve had to be a little more creative. We’ve been going to the farmer’s…

Banana Berry Smoothie
I promised a recipe last week and I had all intentions to post one. However, we visited The Woodlands, TX and I completely forgot my camera at home that had all my photos…so here it is, a little delayed. Since moving to Texas I have been obsessed with fruit smoothies. Probably has to do with…

Working Out!
I’ve talked a lot about food on Vegan Mom Life but have rarely mentioned exercise. I believe that what you put into your body is crucial to your health, but exercise is equally important. I’ve been exercising regularly and intentionally for quite a while. I’ve tried to incorporate a variety of different activities: running, lifting…

Paleo Road Tripping and a New City!
Both Joe and I are officially moved to Austin! So far we’ve had fun exploring the city and trying lots and lots of food. I mean really…lots of food. Some Paleo…some not so Paleo. But I need to experience it all right? I’ll get into some of the awesome places we’ve tried so far but…

Any Meat and Veggie Scramble
Joe left for Austin yesterday and made the 13 hour trip alone in one piece (thank the Lord!). He’s settling into our summer rental and already planning on going to the farmer’s market this morning…he is really going without me! I’m a little in shock still. I made him promise he would cook at least…

Italian Burgers
I officially move to Austin in two weeks! And Joe is leaving in a week. I still think I’m a little bit in shock but it’s all starting to feel very real. We pack up all of our belongings into a POD tomorrow and are slowly starting to say goodbye to family and friends. I’m…

Beer-Marinated Steak Fajitas
I know I’m pretty behind in my posts. I’m adding a Cinco de Mayo recipe a week late… Joe and I have been pretty busy over the last week or so. He just accepted a job in Austin, TX and we made the decision to leave Omaha and head down at the end of this…

Meal Planning Paleo-Style
One of the most important things to help me stick to the Paleo diet is to meal plan. I take an hour or two out of my week (usually Thursday night) to plan out my meals for the next week. This helps get me excited about cooking, trying new recipes and ensures that I always…
