Whenever the holidays roll around, I just love having my hot apple cider, eggnog and especially a rich, creamy hot chocolate that warms me to the core. It instantly brings a smile to my face. One of my favorite reasons for choosing this particular hot cocoa recipe though, is that it's also dairy-free!

I can actually say I've gone through quite a bit of hot chocolate recipes, and while most are great, this is hands down my favorite so far!

Get ready for perhaps the tastiest 'Paleo Approved' hot chocolate recipe you've ever tasted!

Crockpots, in my opinion, is truly the most underused kitchen appliance there is. However, they are definitely the handiest and super simple to clean up! 

I always view them as if they are my sous chef preparing my food while I just go about my day working or running errands. 

You can throw everything in, set it and forget it. A few hours go by and you return to a home smelling like delicious dinner aromas.

This week marks the 100th episode of the Optimize Paleo Podcast!

Whoohoooo!

In order to celebrate we’ve decided to do something a little different! We’ve been working our buns off on some pretty cool new projects and we want to keep you in the loop! I also took the entire month of October to create a presentation for a Kick Cancer Conference and the info is TOO good not to share.

With the holidays in full swing, I wanted to start giving you some delicious holiday recipes like today's, Savory Turkey Stuffed Apples! I LOVE this time of year because the food gets so nostalgic and comforting. 

Today's dish is exactly that. The sweetness of the baked apples pairs perfectly with the ground turkey!

So check out this deconstructed holiday dish, that is guaranteed to satisfy both your sweet and savory sides.

Who doesn't love a delicious spin on a classic Italian dish? This recipe will leave even the pickiest of eaters satisfied for more.

And as soon as you pull this delicious recipe out of the oven, I'm guessing your friends and family will make their way to the kitchen shortly afterward.

One thing I love about Italian food is that the ingredients are designed to be warm, flavorful comfort foods that appeal to the senses.

If you were to read the nutritional section of the news today, you'd probably believe that...

Saturated fat causes heart disease.

A plant based diet is the HEALTHIEST.

The paleo diet is a fad.

And my personal favorite (maybe EVER)...

Farts cure cancer.

Because most people think that when research is reported in the news, it's pretty much always accurate, right?

When I was a young lady, I always told myself pregnancy would be the time in my life where I would eat WHATEVER I wanted regardless of its nutritional value.

Until that is, I learned about a study conducted by Dr. Randy Jirtle, a professor of radiation oncology at Duke University.

Did you know that 92% of Americans suffer from one or more nutrient deficiencies?

And, those who consume the fewest number of nutrients end up weighing the MOST?
