  • Paleo Glazed Banana Bread Donut Holes

    July 14, 2017 / 0 Comments

    These banana donut holes are just amazing!! My whole family loves them as well. They are super sweet without all the added sugar. Most tradition banana breads or donut are just filled with lots of processed sugar. I made these a week later into a banana bread switch I will post about soon.

  • Turkey & Veg Meatloaf

    May 6, 2016 / 0 Comments

         Turkey & Veg Meatloaf This is not just your regular old boring meatloaf. This delicious dish is full of nutrients leaving you satisfied and nourished. This dish is also great to sneak more veggies into your diet. You kids might not even realize they are eating spinach.  This recipe calls for ground turkey BUT probably 99.9% of the time I will make this with ground Elk or Deer. Because that’s what we have in the freezer. SO feel free to change up this recipe to add your preferred ground meat.   HERE IS THE  MACRO BREAKDOWN PROTEIN | Turkey + Eggs FAT | Egg yolks FIBER | Spinach, Green Peppers Related posts:Star Princess Cruise
