Roasted Carrots with Green Olive Dressing

Liven up your roasted vegetables with this punchy green olive dressing! It's quick and easy, pairing perfectly with these caramelized roasted carrots from http://meatified.com.

So I have this silly thing about the recipes I share here being “blog worthy”. Whatever the hell that means. In some ways it makes its own odd kind of sense: I don’t want to be yet another blogger in a sea of bloggers telling you all about how my roast broccoli is somehow life changing. […]

Green Onion Pesto

Switch it up for summer with this fresh Green Onion Pesto from http://meatified.com. Whip it into a dip, toss it with grilled veggies or serve with grilled chicken, salmon or steak.

I’m just going to be straight up here: I have the blackest thumb in the history of thumbdom. You name a houseplant, I’ve killed it. I mean, not through lack of trying. It’s not like I ignore the things for three weeks and then wonder why they’re dead. It’s just… I’m totally lacking whatever part […]

Italian Pâté with fried anchovies, capers & lemon

Mix it up with this Italian Pâté recipe from http://meatified.com that adds a punch of umami with anchovies & capers, finished with warm sage and tangy lemon. It's addictive!

Italian Pâté? Whaddya talkin’ bout, Rach? Well, hold on and I’ll tell you all about this fabulous recipe. But first let me tell you a little about how I made my way back to the joys of pâté once more! I was a creepy little kid who loved pâté, liver & onions and even black pudding: […]

Ranch Guacamole

If ranch and guac had a food love child, this Ranch Guacamole from http://meatified.com would be it. It's a great make ahead dip & will stand in for mayo in your favorite recipes.

I’m usually firmly on Team Chunky Guacamole, preferring my guac to have some junk in its trunk, texture wise. But this sneaky little Ranch Guacamole recipe is the exception. It’s a little weird, a little different and is somehow at its best when whipped up silky smooth for your dipping pleasure. Eh, sometimes I’m a […]

Dairy Free Cheese Sauce v2 (coconut free)

This rich, creamy AIP Cheese Sauce from http://meatified.com is dairy and coconut free! Use it to jazz up roasted veggies or drizzle it over nachos, burgers, taco salads and more.

One of the most popular recipes around here is my easy, AIP Dairy Free Cheese Sauce. It’s rich, creamy, packs an umami-punch of flavor and can be used to make everything from cheeseburgers and dip to nachos and taco salads. It’s a lifesaver when it comes to jazzing up simple roasted vegetables, too: we especially love to […]

Dairy Free Cheese Sauce

Dairy Free Cheese Sauce from http://meatified.com. Allergy friendly recipe that is gluten free, paleo and AIP friendly.

I’m going to go ahead and admit that – much to the annoyance of Mr Meatified, who in a former life was comprised of about 47% chocolate peanut butter cups – I don’t have much of a sweet tooth. At all. I am impervious to pastries, couldn’t care less about chocolate and am more likely […]
