I grew up eating these delicious, sticky, caramelized squares of graham cracker crumbs, condensed milk, chocolate and hearty sweetened coconut. When I picked up some coconut condensed milk at the store on a whim (ie: in the sale section!), I knew I had to make a version I could safely eat. I've been eyeing out … Continue reading Paleo Magic Cookie Bars

Chai Cardamom Chia Pudding
Who doesn't love chia pudding? I'm always stocked up with bags of chia seeds. I'm often more of a coffee drinker. I never used to like it, but I've become so accustomed to grabbing the good ol' cup of joe in the morning. Long story short, I often buy way too much tea to know … Continue reading Chai Cardamom Chia Pudding
Hitting that quarter century! 25, happy and full. <3
I honestly cannot believe I'm already 25!! There are so many milestones you hope to have accomplished at your quarter century mark and it's definitely a time of reflection. Although, I think I've done pretty well.... While discovering my love for food and nutrition later in life and still being in the process of getting my Masters … Continue reading Hitting that quarter century! 25, happy and full. ❤
Smoothie Season
It's finally here! My favorite season of all. I'm a freckly-pale, kinda-ginger, so the frigid cold makes me shiver and the summer heat turns me into a cherry. Spring is the perfect balance. I also LOVE being able to enjoy my morning smoothies without freezing on the way to school. Store-bought smoothie bowls can often … Continue reading Smoothie Season
No-Bake Feta Cheesecake Bars
While I often eat paleo meals (grain-free, dairy-free, soy-free, legume-free, etc.), I find that I can handle low-lactose dairy products. I ended up buying a large, Costco portion of feta cheese because in Korea, cheese is incredibly hard to find. When you spot it, you gotta grab it. 🙂 Feta is a perfect compliment to … Continue reading No-Bake Feta Cheesecake Bars
Paleo Lovely Lemon Bars
I absolutely love all things lemon! Their citrus bite and beautiful yellow color adds a nice touch to a lot of recipes. They are also incredibly beneficial for our health. Lemons can fight infections with their anti-microbial qualities, can help regulate blood pressure and can get rid of toxins in the body. Research has shown that they even have the … Continue reading Paleo Lovely Lemon Bars
Cashew Espresso Bars
I have way too much fun experimenting with nuts and chocolate...mainly because you can't go wrong with either! 🙂 To satisfy my sweet tooth once again and use some of my extra Mokapot espresso, I created these layered paleo cashew espresso bites. I love layers because of the varied textures and flavors. Because let's be honest, when you can have 3 desserts in 1, life is … Continue reading Cashew Espresso Bars
Paleo Pad Thai
When I first got into healthy eating and cooking, there were a lot of my favorite dishes I never expected to see again. I figured I'd eat whole fruits, veggies, grilled meats and baked fish. Simple and plain. Oh, how I was wrong! Food restriction can be frustrating at times, but it's also fun to be … Continue reading Paleo Pad Thai
Paleo Coconut Carrot Breakfast Muffins
I absolutely love carrots! My co-workers can attest to this as I'm often found sitting at my desk, chomping away at these beautiful orange sticks. I ended up grating too many carrots for a noodle dish and decided they could be put to an even greater use! Luckily, I always have essential paleo baking ingredients … Continue reading Paleo Coconut Carrot Breakfast Muffins
Homemade Paleo Indian Curry
I LOVE grocery shopping! It's one of my past-times...looking for good deals, scouring the produce, stocking up on nuts. In fact, my boyfriend and I often wander around the local shops in Korea for fun. Date night, anyone? However, with this love for shopping and my addiction to whole, perishable foods, I often find myself … Continue reading Homemade Paleo Indian Curry
