Fagan Eats Paleo Recipe: Spicy Tomato Butter Sauce

Are you in the market for a great sauce for your Paleo-friendly "pasta" alternatives like zoodles or spaghetti squash?  Well then, do I have the recipe for you.  It's so crazy simple and packs such a flavor punch that you won't be buying jarred sauce again.  

Jamie's Thoughts: When You're Going Through Hell...

There’s this saying you may have heard of, ”When you’re going through hell, keep going...” by Winston Churchill.  Well, it may not have been from Winston Churchill.  It's origin is uncertain.  I learned it in the context of working in family law; and it was advice my boss doled out to divorcing clients often. 

Fagan Eats Paleo Recipe: Lemon Butter Shrimp with Paleo Pesto "Sauce" and Spaghetti Squash

I just love it when recipes just sort of write themselves.  And that's pretty much what happened with this recipe.  It looks pretty luxurious folks, but really, this dish is so simple to make.  

Fagan Eats Paleo Product Review: Julian Bakery Protein Bars--Yay or Nay?

You may have heard that i'm in the market for a tasty Paleo protein bar apart from my trusty old Epic Bar favorites.  So, when I saw an advertisement for a Paleo-compliant protein bar that was "glazed donut" flavored, I stopped in my tracks.  And then ordered immediately.  

Fagan Eats Paleo Recipe: Paleo-Friendly Basil Pesto

I'm not reinventing the wheel here.  I'll say that. Rather, i'm painting the wheel pretty pastel colors and bedazzling it.  There are about a thousand different pesto recipes out there.   But hey, they aren't all Paleo, right?  

Fagan Eats Paleo Recipe: Basic Roasted Spaghetti Squash

This really isn't a recipe.  It's more of like a "how to" cook something, you know?  But as I begin to build recipes using the basics, having these instructions down is kinda necessary.  Seems a little unfair for me to assume you all just know how to roast up a spaghetti squash.  I know I didn't before I started Paleo.  

Fagan Eats Paleo Recipe: Paleo Duck Confit

A decadent meal great for a special occasions.

I've been on a big duck kick lately.  It seems to give me so much energy, so it's becoming my go-to protein of choice when I want to make something a little special.  Well--that and I just like experimenting with new types of food.  Ever since I vacationed in Paris in February, I've been dying to recreate some of the amazing duck dishes enjoyed there.  And so, I endeavored to re-create duck confit.  

Fagan Eats Paleo Recipe: Paleo Protein Smoothie

It's a satisfying and delicious Paleo Protein Smoothie

For about the past month or so, I've been at a weight loss plateau.  I have 5 to 7 more pounds I'd love to lose, but I'm also at the place with my body where if that doesn't happen, I'd be okay with that too.  To try to break past the block, I decided to change things up with my diet and exercise.  And so, this Paleo Protein Smoothie became part of that revamp.

Fagan Eats Paleo Product Review: Exo Paleo Protein Bars with Cricket Flour

Exo Protein Bars with Cricket Flour

I have so many recipes that are just floating around in my brain and not enough time get them down and photographed.  Some things I've got in the works are a simple duck confit, seared duck breast with fig sauce, and lemon butter shrimp over spaghetti squash with a broccoli/cauli puree "pesto" sauce.  I'm finding that eating duck is giving me tons of energy.  I always feel great after I have it, so I'm trying to incorporate more of it into my diet.  I'm so looking forward to getting these recipes down and onto the blog!
