Sausage, Sweet Potato & Kale Hash
I found a really delicious chicken sausage at Trader Joe’s that doesn’t have any added sugar and is fully cooked. Their Smoked Apple Chardonnay chicken sausage inspired me to think of something different to make instead of just grilling them up like we usually do. I knew I wanted to incorporate sweet potatoes (of course!)…

Mostly Paleo Austin Recap Part 2
I promised I would finish my recap of our recent adventure to Austin, so here it is. A little delayed, but still here! One night while we were there I wanted to tried a fancier place. We chose (or should I say that I chose…) to go to the Salty Sow. It was a really…

Mostly Paleo Austin Recap Part 1
Joe and I just got back from Austin, Texas and had a blast! It was filled with lots of good food, great weather, exploring downtown, hiking, paddle boarding, shopping and catching up with a friend. I promised to provide some food highlights from the trip, so let’s just get to it… The first place I…

My Favorite Roasted Rosemary Sweet Potatoes
I am officially obsessed with sweet potatoes (hence the name of the website). 🙂 If I could eat them for every meal, I probably would. Actually, I definitely would. I try to limit them to a few times a week (which is really limiting them for me). My favorite way to eat them is by…

Ham, Mushroom and Spinach Omelet
To celebrate Valentine’s Day, Joe and I stayed at Hotel Deco in downtown Omaha to enjoy a nice relaxing evening away from home. We had reservations at the Zin Room and I could not wait for our little in-town weekend getaway. Unfortunately we were both underwhelmed with the whole experience. Food was pricey, service was…

Crockpot Italian Shredded Pork
I am absolutely in love with the crockpot. Having dinner waiting for me when I get home after a long day couldn’t get any better. And this recipe is delicious! Reminds me a lot of Italian Sausage and Peppers. For Christmas, Joe got me a Groupon to Omaha Power Yoga. I’ve done yoga off and…

Paleo Beer Dinner (Well…the food is Paleo!)
A few weeks ago we celebrated Joe’s birthday. Last year we were living in Texas and went to a 5-course beer dinner at a local brewery to celebrate. It was delicious but definitely not Paleo. This year instead of going out to dinner, I decided to surprise Joe and create a Paleo-inspired 4-course beer dinner…

So with our very first product listing, I wanted to introduce the Avo Saver. Their are a number of Paleo recipes that use avocados and more often than not, you won’t be using the entire avocado. So…

Pork, Orange and Spinach Salad
A few weeks ago Joe, and I sold our house in The Woodlands, TX. We moved back to Omaha, NE from Texas in July and had our house on the market for about 7 months. It was a long roller coaster ride, but the house is now sold. Luckily we have an awesome family who…

Coq au Riesling (Rosemary Chicken and Veggies in a White Wine Sauce)
I adapted this recipe from one I found in Good Housekeeping. It’s a yummy twist on Coq au Vin that incorporates dry Riesling with chicken, bacon, rosemary and vegetables slowly cooked in a Dutch oven over the stove. This is definitely a weekend meal because there is a little bit of prep time and the chicken…

Quick Visual Guide to Eating Paleo
While playing around on Pinterest the other day (you can follow Sweet-Paleo on Pinterest here by the way), I stumbled across this cool infograph that is a quick guide to what the Paleo diet entails. Great for those who are visual people (like my husband!). It’s a good starting point for those who are on the…

Roasted Rosemary Carrots, Beets and Turnips
I have a tendency to get into recipe ruts from time to time. I end up making the same thing week after week or some variation of the same thing…meat, Brussels sprouts, green beans, butternut squash, sweet potatoes and avocados. These are all things that I love to eat, but my husband definitely let’s me…
