Hello Slow Carb-ers and Paleo-ites. It’s been awhile, and I’m now gearing up to get back into the swing of things. I stopped blogging a few months ago when my computer crashed, and I lost all of my food pictures and recipes I had stored on my desktop(not the brightest way to store things!) That [...]
Hi there to everyone in Slow Carb Land. You may have noticed that it’s been ages since I’ve posted on here. Well, two things happened. 1) My lap top crashed (the dreaded blue screen of death), and I love all my food photos of recipes I’d cooked and was planning to post one day. 2) [...]
We all need them, or at least we all want them. We don’t realize how badly we want them until we can’t have one when we want it. Then when we get it, we usually feel terrible afterwards. I’m talking about cheat days, and I’ve had several questions come up about them. Why even have [...]
On the slow-carb diet, one thing you’re going to eat more of than you probably ever have before is vegetables. It seems really obvious, but a lot of people just don’t get it.

If you’re following the Slow Carb Diet to a “T”, you are likely consuming a lot of beans and lentils. Perhaps too many . Perhaps not enough. It’s friggin’ confusing, isn’t it? One of the most common questions I see posted on forums is people asking what type of bean they should be eating and [...]
I’m excited to announce that one of my original recipes has been included in Tim Ferris’ new Slow-Carb Diet TM Cookbook – Volume Two. If you’re interested in buying a copy of the book, a fairly exhaustive collection of Slow Carb recipes, 100% of the proceeds are being donated directly to QuestBridge, which helps put [...]
These little bacon cups from Not Martha are absolutely adorable and look delicious. I have to confess, I haven’t made this recipe yet (we don’t have the “right” kind of bacon in Australia so I probably won’t make them until I make it back to the US.) Nonetheless, I want to share the recipe anyway [...]
