Ohhhhh my goodness, IT'S FINALLY OVER. That month was a strug, fam - definitely harder than I thought it would be. If I'm being super honest, I really don't think I would have finished it if I hadn't made it so public on the blog and The Garlic Diaries' Insta. BUT - we finished it! Finished it legit and 100% with zero cheats. And now that it's over, I'm so glad we did it, and it was a good ...
Instant Pot Short Ribs
Ah, Instant Pot. So nice to see you again - it's been a while! I was very excited to be able to incorporate you into Whole 30. If I ate things like you every night, I could do Whole 30 on a permanent basis. **Switching to you, readers, instead of continuing to be creepy and address only the short ribs.** Short ribs were a first for me as of this month while doing Whole 30, and I am sad at the ...
Coconut Spaghetti Squash Noodle Bowls
One good thing about Whole 30 is that it resulted in my experimental use of spaghetti squash! I've never tried it before this month, and I absolutely love it! Now...does it taste identical to a big, steaming bowl of pasta? Nah girl. But does it taste delicious and resemble pasta a bit? Cha girl...it does. At least I think so. It's extra good in this recipe because the "noodles" are totally ...
Whole 30 Week Three Recap
Alright you guys...we are THREE WEEKS down and less than one to go at this point. PRAISE THE LAWD, because this has been quite the challenge! So - week three... WHAT WE ATE Breakfasts: I ditched the creative breakfasts that I enjoyed so much last week and literally had the exact same thing every single day. Why? Mainly because I was lazy and wasn't feeling creative in the breakfast ...
Crispy Baked Sweet Potato Fries
There is a mythical, mysterious creature out there called the "crispy baked sweet potato fry." I was skeptical of its existence for a very long time after trying unsuccessful recipe after unsuccessful recipe. I finally decided that a crispy sweet potato fry is a nice theory but sadly is impossible to find and have for myself. Kind of like a unicorn. HOWEVER - my husband made sweet potato fries a ...
Avocado “Toast” with a Sunny Side Up Egg
Okay, so I'm excited about this one. Breakfast can be a struggle for me, especially while doing Whole 30. I get sick of the same breakfasts over and over again, and I get frustrated with the lack of options. When I'm not on Whole 30, I tend to cycle between phases of eggs, protein pancakes, sometimes things like oatmeal or toast, and then when I get super sick of breakfast all together, just ...
Whole 30 Week Two Recap
Half way through, half way through, half way through! Whew. This second week has been an interesting one...In week one, we were all firey and motivated since it was still so new. We are still motivated, but we have also dealt with a little Whole 30 boredom and have at times felt a liiittttle over it. BUT - we are pushing over this hump and are determined to finish strong! Let's break down this ...
Cocoa and Chili Crusted Steak with Jalapeno Chimichurri
So I'm sure you have seen lots of those meal delivery ads for Hello Fresh, Blue Apron, and other similar companies, right? They're all the rage right now, and I can fully see why - SUPER convenient. Seth and I tried one a few years ago for one week just for fun to see if the food was any good. It was a fun week, but we still prefer just coming up with our own dinners! In February, when I was in ...
Roasted Root Vegetable Soup with Fried Sage Leaves
I'm trying to make the best of the fact that it's still wintery here in Kansas. Whenever it gets to this time of year and spring is so close I can almost taste it, I start to LOSE MA MIND. I don't want to be a negative Nancy over here, but I freaking hate cold weather. Winter itself has some nice perks: Christmas, coziness, and cold weather food, but the cold weather itself makes me want to curl ...
Whole 30 Week One Recap
Week one of Whole 30 is officially dizzity-done, yo. As of Monday night! SO - let's chat... WHAT WE ATE Breakfasts: Eggs. Lots of eggs. Eggs in different ways - usually just scrambled, but sometimes I got a little more ambitious and made a few over easy fried eggs or an omelette stuffed with goodies. I usually have bacon with the eggs, but the other day I had leftover steak from the ...
