  • What is “Real Food”?

    Just ground beef, veggies, olive oil & spices!

    You’ll see the phrase “real food” a lot around here. So let me explain what I mean by that.

    It sounds funny, right? Would I really eat anything other than food that is real? Most people would promptly answer a resounding “no!”.

    Is an apple real, naturally occurring as a food? Yes! 🙂 How about eggs? Yeah, those too. Is my collagen powder real? It doesn’t look like something straight out of the ground or from the farm. But yes, collagen is a real food and a pretty cool one too. Collagen extraction requires beneficial processing that helps turn big protein into little collagen peptides in powder form. What about my protein bar? Hmm…maybe.

  • Easy Paleo Pancake Recipe- Only 2 Main Ingredients You Have Already

    2 Ingredient Paleo Pancake

    Nutrition: This is breakfast at its best: high in protein + appropriate portion of carbs, the perfect combo to fuel your morning.

    Eggs + nut butter = protein.

    Sweet potato/banana = quality carbs.

    100% real food.

    Technique: All you need is a microwave & a skillet. Pan flipping not required but super fun. You can just use a large spatula to flip this mega pancake.

    Diets: Low FODMAP: go for the banana option instead of the sweet potato, or a combo of 1/2 banana + half cup sweet potato, or about 3/4 of a medium sweet potato. If you can’t tolerate sweet potato or just want to change it up, swap in a sweet plantain or banana for the sweet potato.
