You know those people that eat all of the pie inners and leave an empty pie crust in the fridge? That was me. I was never a lover of pie crust. I didn’t like apple pies because they usually had a double dose of crust on top, and I was never one to clean my… Read more »

Here’s an SCD and Paleo legal version of my Vanilla Almond Homemade Granola. Instead of oats, it uses a variety of ground nuts.  Soaking the nuts overnight makes them easier to digest, and drying them at really low heat preserves the valuable nutrients they provide.  If you’re counting calories, I need to warn you this… Read more »
