BBQ Chicken Flatbread Pizza (autoimmune paleo)

BBQ Chicken Flatbread Pizza (autoimmune paleo)

One night, while eating BBQ chicken thighs and AIP flatbread, it struck me that I should combine the two and make an AIP version of BBQ chicken pizza on a flatbread crust. I owe many thanks to Russ at The Domestic Man for the inspiration; I started with his flatbread recipe and modified it to end up with what is a fantastic pizza crust for both the AIP diner or anyone else who is simply following a grain-free diet. Since I have this obsession with cooking with gelatin, I've used it in this recipe and the resulting crust is both pleasantly crunchy and chewy at the same time. You will really enjoy this recipe!

Autoimmune Paleo Savory Breakfast Cookies (aka flattened biscuits)

Autoimmune Paleo Savory Breakfast Cookies (aka flattened biscuits)

Sometimes kitchen failures turn into great recipes. I've tried and tried to come up with an egg-free, autoimmune paleo biscuit, but, no matter what I do, they don't rise. They've all come out flat as pancakes! Thus, Savory Breakfast Cookies were born. Even though they don't look like a biscuit, they taste like one, and they make the perfect AIP savory breakfast bread!

Nightshade-free Shepherd's Pie

Nightshade-free Shepherd's Pie

Cauliflower is a wonderful and versatile vegetable, but I was left disappointed when I tried using it as the mashed topping for shepherd's pie. This recipe utilizes tropical starchy roots as the mashed potato replacement in a nourishing, nightshade- and dairy-free version of the classic dish.

Vanilla Cinnamon Coconut Milk Pudding (AIP)

Vanilla Cinnamon Coconut Milk Pudding (AIP)

This has become my go-to dessert recipe on the autoimmune paleo protocol. It's so good, though, that anyone will enjoy this rich, satisfying dish! It's so easy to make and uses only 5 ingredients, including the super food gelatin. Enjoy!

How to Cook Beef Tendon for Soup and Ultra Rich Broth

I bought a big pack of grass-fed beef tendons the other week and found myself staring at them saying "now what??" Preparing beef tendon couldn't be easier, and the results will give you the richest, gelatin-packed broth and absolutely delightful, melt-in-your-mouth morsels to add to your favorite soup recipe. Some call beef tendon "the new pork belly" and I agree that it's that good!
