Nom Nom Paleo Cookbook

Hello Lovelies!

When I was initially told I had to lead a strict Paleo lifestyle to repair the lining of my stomach that going gluten-free just did not heal, I thought.  O-M-G-What am I going to eat?  I was plagued by this.  And it reminded me of my initial days going gluten-free.  Not to mention using my creativity would be very hard with Paleo.  Or so I thought…

After doing a google research on Paleo Lifestyle Blogs I came across a blog called Nom Nom Paleo.  Her name was Michelle Tam.  And her husband Henry Fong.  They were able to not only feed their family a Paleo lifestyle but thrive.  I was intrigued.  Her website made me remember that you can be creative with anything you put your mind to.  If you have the creativity gene like I do, then you know it never shuts itself off.  With that said, I found a few ideas from her website that guided me into my new Paleo lifestyle.  Score!

Her meatballs recipe is the bomb! (originally from Primal Palate)  I had added my own ingredients to it and it's still the bomb!  Her take on zoodles (vegetable noodles) is awesome and using this easy and kid friendly machine called the Spiralizer which turns your veggies into zoodles!! I have been introduced to new ingredients like Coconut Aminos-which I consider to be the coconut version of soy sauce but free of gluten, wheat, dairy, soy and is vegan.  (It's great on your sashimi!!).  Her website is all about going back to basics with a kick.  I like the sound of that!

I saw that she was selling her own cookbook, similar to her website.  And I originally thought I didn't need the book, as I had full access to her blog.  But while in Barnes and Noble yesterday I saw it.  And of course I had to read it.  And OMG it's totally awesome!  It's a must have cookbook.  It doesn't look like your regular cookbook, there are comics, and TONS of pictures.  It's not only her recipes but a chronicle of her and her family's adventures.  It's a clever book.  A stocking stuffer.  A great gift, a must have.  So I ordered it on Amazon.  And I cannot wait to get it.

It is 100 percent gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free and Paleo, and of course there are Vegan/Vegetarian recipes too.  This kind of cooking, the kind where sugar, dairy, gluten and processed has left the building leaves my body feeling good.  My taste buds can actually taste what they are meant to taste.  The ingredients feel good.  My body has great energy.  

I bought it because I need more inspiration.  The last thing I want my food to taste like is boring.  Experimenting with ideas and foods I am not used to is my JAM.  I love it.  It's fun and therapeutic.


Nom Nom Paleo Cookbook is sold at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and of course on her website.  Hands down, this book is going to go into my top list of must have cookbooks!! Get your copy today!! You will not be sorry! 

Enjoy!! xx Julie

  2. Love this post and blog... Similar to your post and story of the Tam family, our dear friends children are so sensitive to so many foods, peanuts, gluten, and dairy, Dinners over, birthday parties and holidays were a struggle for us. we search and searched for recipes and it was so difficult until we found Paleo Diet. We are so thankful we did. we now really promote this and my family has taken this a mission to help as many people as we can to learn about this way of cooking eating and living healthy. Thank you so much for this blog we are both on a mission of good. Happy I Found This!

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel-Caps ( which are different then Li

Hot Chocolate Coffee

Sometimes I feel like there are days only chocolate would understand.  And following a strict Paleo diet does not allot for chocolate eating.  Especially chocolate with added dried cane sugar.  And especially in abundance.  Of course special occasions allot for this type of activity, but today is not that day. So how do you put a sock in your chocolate craving?  Well, simply remove your sock from your foot and put it in your chocolate.  I'm kidding!  Please use a clean sock! Kidding again!!… Often, chocolate cravings can get the best of us, so I created a delicious recipe to kick my craving and your craving.  It's delicious.  And it's perfect for the lover of coffee and chocolate.  Taking a sip of this sent signals of pure decadence to my brain. A lot of my readers often describe how tough it is to drink black coffee without sweetener, so this one is for you guys!!   This recipe is a total Brain Trick.  It tastes sweet and chocolaty, so you think there is swee

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com
