I started making baba ganoush when I did my first Whole30. At the time, I was obsessed with hummus and had no idea how I would go an entire 30 days without my favorite dip. It was a serious problem. I did a little research and found that baba ganoush was a similar style dip, but instead of chickpeas, it is made with roasted eggplant. At that time there were not as many “Whole30” approved ...

Coconut Chicken Tender Salad (Whole30 + Paleo)
This coconut chicken tender salad is an easy week-night dinner that packs up well for lunch the following day. It's such a refreshing and filling meal, and one you can feel great about eating! Side bonus: if you have kids who are picky eaters, you can eat the chicken tenders and berries over greens, and they can eat the meal sans greens! I love coconut-crusted tenders and coconut shrimp at ...
Jibarito – Plantain Burger (Whole30 + Paleo)
Ever had one of those pure bliss moments during a Whole30 or a clean eating phase? One where you try a new recipe, take a bite, and immediately think "This CANNOT be clean. It is just. too. good." That happened to me a few times during my second Whole30. The first time it happened with my veggie-packed turkey meatloaf muffins and "cheesy" cauliflower mash. The second time, dear friends, was with ...
Veggie-Packed Turkey Meatloaf Muffins (Whole30, Paleo, DF)
Several years ago, while in grad school, I apprehensively picked up these Turkey Meatloaf Muffins from Trader Joe's. I was studying at the time to become a medical illustrator, and spending most of my time in class or in my studio. While I tried to eat healthily, I also had time constraints that kept me out of the kitchen, so frozen meals were a substantial part of my diet. These meatloaf muffins ...
Best Ever Whole30 Ketchup
I know what you're thinking...."Make my own ketchup? Is she nuts?! Who has time for that!" Follow me here for a moment. I am not a ketchup lover. I don't even dip my fries in ketchup (I know, I hear it's a crime). I'm just not a big sauce kid. However, this homemade ketchup from Jay's Baking Me Crazy rocked my world. Call me a convert. I'm now making regular batches of this goodness and ...
Beet Noodles with Crispy Sausage + Granny Smith Apples
There are so many aspects of this dish that I just love so let me jump right in: crisp apples, crunchy Italian sausage, colorful veggie noodles, and a dairy-free cream sauce. Salty, sweet, and easy on the belly! What more could you want? This was also a perfect opportunity to use those fresh picked apples from the orchard in the fall (pictured below) to add some color and nutrition to an ...
Whole30 Stuffed Squash
Growing up, stuffed squash was one of my favorite dishes in Mom’s rotation. It’s filling and flavorful, and you can serve it as a side dish or as a main! A satisfying, savory recipe that's Whole30, Paleo, and Keto! Last year, when I was embarking on my second round of Whole30, I knew that the key to staying on track would be to explore lots of new recipes. I find that eating clean and ...
Pork + Apple Breakfast Sausage (Whole30)
As a two-time Whole30 alum, I know all too well that the morning breakfast struggle can be real. After day 10, I was just so. sick. of eggs. These Pork + Apple Breakfast Sausages were a welcome departure from the sugar-free bacon and eggs routine. I love that you can make a big batch of these sausages and keep them at the ready in the fridge. I like to cut pieces of wax paper to fit my ...
