This recipe is from Better Homes & Gardens. I modified it gluten free. If you happen to be Vegan and do not eat cheese just omit it and substitute veggie broth for the chicken broth.

Paleo Italian Meatballs
A quick and easy weeknight dish the whole family is sure to love! I’ve added in Spaghetti squash too in place of having pasta! It was really delicious, low in carbs and so healthy good without sacrificing any taste that’s for sure! This recipe is gluten/wheat/grain/ sugar-free. No one would even know unless you told them!
From Paleo Magazine: Readers Favorites Cookbook
For the Spaghetti squash, the secret to slicing in half is to microwave it for about 10 minutes first so it slices right through easily! Scoop out the seeds brush on a little olive oil on each piece and put face down on a baking sheet and roast on 400 for about 20. Mine was huge so it took about 20 min and it was perfect.
Paleo Zucchini Pasta with Avocado Cream Sauce
This dish is so unbelievably good!!! My husband said it’s better than any restaurant we went to on our vacay this last week in Baltimore! So healthy too because it’s absolutely grain free! And the shrimp really makes it even better!!! Double YUM! We had some salmon cakes on the side! Recipe to follow!! Triple YUM!
Quick Zucchini Pasta & Marinara Sauce
Looking for a healthier take on pasta without the grains? Personally, I’ve been grain free now for about 2 weeks and can really tell a big difference in how I’m feeling. More focused, fewer stomach issues, more energy. I just bought several Paleo magazines and a cookbook so looking forward to trying some new dishes and sharing with everyone! While some might only be familiar with gluten-free pasta on the market, it’s easy and quick to create gluten free and grain free zucchini pasta right at home and it even looks a lot like traditional spaghetti and tastes great!
For anyone who’s looking to give lower carb, paleo or a grain-free diet a try, this is definitely a must do dish! And what a great way to get the kiddos to eat more veggies disguising them as pasta! Ha!
You can also use Spaghetti squash for this dish. (Heat spaghetti squash in the microwave for 5 minutes to make it easier to slice. Brush with olive oil and lay skin side down on a cookie sheet or oven stone and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes at 350). There you have it! Szoodles!

Gluten Free Egg Pasta with Balsamic Brown Butter
OMG! This dish is so good and so easy and fast to make!!! I modified this recipe and my husband says it’s restaurant quality! If you are gluten-free and you love your pasta you gotta try this dish!!! Even if you’re not gluten-free you gotta try it! Yummo!!! I modified this recipe using Gluten Free egg Pasta (instead of Ravioli because I haven’t found any gluten-free ravioli yet in any store.) AND this is the first gluten-free egg noodles I’ve found! Yipppee!! Ok, so I haven’t had any pasta in a while! I’m excited about it!!!

Zucchini Parmesan Chips
Delicious, healthy snack or side dish! Try these with the kiddos to entice them to eat some veggies!
Turkey Meatball Appetizers
Some store bought nutrition bars may not be very good quality when it comes to the ingredients and your health and when they are good quality they can be a bit expensive. You’ll want the right stuff for your body! Check out at the ingredient list as well as have a good understanding of why you’re eating one. People watching their diets, athletes, and those who are constantly eating on the run all have a different purpose in eating a nutrition bar. When you’re out and about and your blood sugar drops eating one of these little power bites is much better than then going through the Drive Thru or grabbing a sugar filled candy bar! Organic ingredients are not necessary for nutrition bars but we like eating organic whenever possible and that’s usually most of the time.
