Paleo Smoky Grilled Pineapple Burgers

Since going Paleo my family has fallen even more in love with our grill. Paleo and grilling just work well together. The past couple of years I've even been stepping outside my grilling comfort zone more and more. Grilling things I'd never thought to have grilled before and trying new flavor combinations. I have to say I'm pretty thrilled with the results of most of my flavor experiments.  In the past I'd never have thought to grill fruit, but it's amazing. Grilling fruit and adding it to traditionally savory dishes? Brilliant. Oh yes, and? New rule: every burger recipe for the rest of forever must contain grilled pineapple. OK, maybe more of a guideline. It's a seriously delicious combination though. This Smoky Grilled Pineapple Burger is always a crowd-pleaser at my house. It's not only Paleo, but Whole30, glutenfree, lower carb, and clean eating friendly. I promise you won't miss the bun!  paleo, grilled pineapple burger, smoky

My Paleo Pregnancy - Week 13

Week 13!!! Helloooo second trimester. And boy howdy I can see a difference. It's like night and day better. I was only mildly nauseous once or twice this week and my energy levels are returning. I wouldn't say they're back to normal, but I don't know if they ever truly are during pregnancy. With my returned energy I've been looking around my house and realizing that my husband, bless him for trying, is not the greatest housekeeper. So, I've been doing laundry with a vengeance and otherwise trying to make this place look presentable before Christmas. This may be the first time in the history of ever that I'm actually enjoying housework...OK, it's more that I'm thankful I have the energy. I don't know what I'd do this pregnancy without friends. All of my clothes are too small now. I'm in maternity clothes full time. I am SO THANKFUL for my friend Amy . She sent me a huge box of the most amazing maternity clothes I've ever s

What Do You Eat When You're Paleo and Pregnant?

That question has come up a lot lately. People wanting to know what I eat in general or whether my eating is different than my normal pre-pregnancy paleo diet.  I would have thought my answer would be that I eat basically the same, but for the first trimester there have been differences. The main difference is that before I was pregnant I ate three meals a day and one or two snacks, but now I find I can't stand a full meal. I'm eating more mini meals throughout the day and I also tend to stick to the same foods more.   A typical day looks like this: Breakfast - 5 or 6 AM A cup of  Warrior Cereal with almond milk. Breakfast has been toughest for me this first trimester. My breakfasts started out looking like this: But weeks 6 through 10 I was very nauseous/sick and having major aversions to meat and eggs. I tried smoothies and even some gluten free cereal (which didn't help and I wouldn't have added that back into my diet in hind sight). Then I found

My Paleo Pregnancy Week 11 - I'm Scared

Source: Uploaded by user via Kerri on Pinterest This is a hard post for me to write. I think I worry about getting my heart across without being perceived in a certain way... If you've followed my blog for long you know that I've lost a large amount of weight . It took many years of hard work, ups and downs, and searching for what worked for me.  This last spring and summer I made huge progress. I was in the best shape of my life mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I felt like I had finally found me for the first time ever. I love that I'm pregnant. I love that we'll have another little one in our family, but... I feel like I'm losing me. At the same time I feel selfish for feeling that way. It's really really hard to watch the scale go back up. I realize that sounds terrible. "You're pregnant, the scale should go back up!" Well, yes it should. But it's going up too quickly and I feel myself falling into
