Zoodles alla Carbonara, Paleo style

Everyone loves Spaghetti alla Carbonara! This easy 15-minute meal is high in protein, low in carbs, Paleo-adapted with zoodles, or zucchini noodles! We think of this as a traditional Italian dish, however it's actually a 1944 adaptation of US Army rations. Spaghetti alla Carbonara was invented by a smart Italian refugee woman during WWII. It seems American troops shared powdered eggs and bacon with starving coal diggers who had fled to the hills around Rome to escape the Germans. ...

I love this spicy homemade dip! It is filled with luscious flavor and healthy vitamins! Fresh veggies are a colorful and nutritious way to enjoy dips.

Liver Venetian Style “Fegato alla Veneziana”

Cauliflower Risotto with English Peas

Today I discovered fresh organic English peas in the market! When I lived in Italy, fresh peas in the pod were a sign of spring. Everyone rushes home to make this risotto, called “Risi e Bisi” in Venetian dialect, or “Rice with Peas”. However you won’t find this particular risotto in Italy! ...

Here's a super-easy dairy-free cheese sauce for broccoli. It's so tasty and quick! Broccoli is an important source of calcium for folks that don't eat dairy, like Paleo and Vegan folks.

An accidental discovery, this is now my absolute favorite "cheese" for Pizza. We DO want cheese on our pizza! It slices beautifully, and uses pure coconut instead of dairy.
