Fajita Breakfast Bowls
When we opened the gym, we were there together for 15 hours a day. So cooking, and even grocery shopping was really, really difficult. I kid you not, our “3 squares” were fished out of the freezer section of the grocery store. It got pretty bad. It’s obviously better now, since I’m posting recipes again.…

Creole Breakfast Casserole To Go
It’s like gumbo is stuck inside your eggs. So now you can eat dinner inside of breakfast, instead of dinner for breakfast. Ingredients 12 ounces andouille sausage 1/2 large green pepper 1/2 jalapeno 1/2 yellow onion 8 eggs 2 tablespoons hot sauce 2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce Method Preheat your oven to 350ºF. Get out an 8×8…

Bacon & Egg Breakfast Chili
Adding bacon and eggs to a chili is a really great way to stretch a pound of ground meat. I originally set out to make this in the crock pot, as I’m trying to broaden my crockery cookery horizons, but then promptly realized that cooking this over an open flame would actually allow it to…

Pad Thai Frittata
Frittatas and baked egg dishes are no stranger in our house. Late nights at the gym combined with me not prepping ahead for dinner or even having an inkling of what I want to eat–then something like this is what’s going down the hatch. Keeping a well stocked pantry and a few staple produce items…

Creamed Spinach Souffle
More often than not, meals in our home are inspired by what’s sitting around in the fridge or pantry. Some weeks I’m extremely ‘wifey’ and make a menu and then make a grocery store list, organized by ingredient, but those weeks have become increasingly fewer and farther between. Sorry hun. This meal was inspired by…

Cowboy Breakfast Skillet
Last Saturday was a busy day. After breakfast we knew we’d have no real time to eat again until that night. So we threw together the biggest, most protein and fat packed meal we could possibly conceive. It was enough food to keep a cowboy full for hours…believe me, I feed one. It’s the usual suspects…

Egg (Not) Drop Soup
Cheap and easy. Sounds like a pay-per-view movie title. I’m talking about a five minute meal that costs less than five dollars to make. The best of both worlds, ya? This is a simple riff on the classic egg drop soup, which is an equally cheap and easy soup to make. My version really just…

Baked Bibimbap
I got home from the gym at 8:11 and had this ready to eat, on the table at 8:43. No lie. Bibimbap is a Korean dish that’s just a big saute of vegetables, topped with a raw or fried egg. Well, the raw egg wasn’t going to happen and the hater-of-washing-dishes in me only wanted…

Paleo Breakfast Casserole
Breakfast for dinner. Or breakfast…for breakfast. Tastes the same going down, anytime of day… Ingredients 1 lb fresh chorizo or breakfast sausage 8 eggs 3 small yukon gold potatoes or 1 medium sweet potato, cubed 1 small can diced green chilies 4 oz shredded raw cheese, optional Method Preheat your oven to 350ºF. Using a…

GOBlin Deviled Eggs
We’re headed to Banff, Alberta, Canada (Is that how you write it?) until the end of the week. This recipe was a dinner+breakfast smashup inspired by our need for speed. I was hoping we could eat a few eggs for dinner and then pop the rest in our mouths as we head to the airport…

Fajita Frittata
We have 9 days until we have to move into the new casa and have finally finished installing all the unfinished wood flooring. Now we just have to get it sanded and finished, pull-out and install new carpet, paint, paint and then paint some more. Oh and then we have to pack up our old…

Mexican Omelette
I had a hard time deciding what to call this recipe. It’s not really a frittata, often associated with Italy, but also means the eggs are beaten to a fluffy consistency. These weren’t. Then there’s the Spanish tortilla, which is an onion, potato, egg mixture. This really isn’t that either. So I figured I’d close…

Smoked, Deviled Eggs
Salmon, capers, red onion and boiled egg, it’s a classic 80’s combo…like Salt N Pepa or Vanilla and Ice. We’ve been eating chopped egg and onion with lemon over smoked salmon for a while. Then it just clicked–do it deviled style, so now all the flavors are wrapped up in a handy, take anywhere package.…

Paleo Huevos Rancheros
More sausage! Brandon was supposed to make dinner tonight and well, I kind of took over. He wanted breakfast for dinner and I’m totally in to that, don’t get me wrong. Problem is, we’re going out of town, out of the country actually, for the next 5 days and I had some stuff I wanted…

Paleo Bacon and Eggs To Go
We didn’t get home until 10 p.m. the other night so this recipe was inspired, once again, by my lack of time mixed with hunger pangs. We try our best to make a menu every week and shop for the necessary ingredients, but it doesn’t always happen. This is a nice example of it “not…

Pork Fried Rice
A buddy of ours at our CrossFit box asked us if we had a Paleo style Fried Rice recipe. We had never tried, so we immediately set to work. The rice is replaced with cauliflower we pulverized in the food processor. This recipe messes up a few more dishes than I like to clean, but…

Bacon, Roasted Red Pepper, Onion Frittata
Rubbery, over cooked, leathery eggs are not tasty eats. There are 2 secrets to a great frittata. 1. Use a dish that’s wide enough! The smaller the diameter of the dish, the longer the eggs take to cook–hence the leathery-ness and browning. Notice in the pic that the eggs come about half way up the…

Primal Italian Baked Eggs
This dish is a take on classic shirred eggs. In my eyes, this could be eaten for breakfast, lunch or dinner. It’s easy to assemble and easy to clean up. I’m writing this recipe for 5 individual portions, but it’s easy to modify for the number of mouths you’re feeding. Ingredients 2 c roasted marinara…
