Nope, I'm not dead. A lot of people have been asking where I've been and that they miss my posts! It is truly a great feeling that there are people that really depend on my little blog here for recipes and for being successful on their ways of eating!
Over the course of my nearly three month hiatus, I am really making an effort to be back for good. There have been some major changes in my life and 2014 has been exceptionally great to me thus far.
With that being said, I am making some changes to my diet. Keto combined with Primal/Paleo/Ancestral eating just really makes sense to me. Nutrient dense, grain-free foods bereft of chemicals and sweeteners seems like the best option to me!
Now that that is out of the way, let's get to the good stuff. This paleo banana bread.
I am fortunate enough to have a boyfriend that is extremely supportive of my desire to remain gluten-free. For Valentine's Day, he made me this delicious paleo banana bread, and we went to a Brazilian Steakhouse for dinner. There was meat galore and it was glorious.
This bread is extremely moist and delicious. I loved it served with a big slice of Kerrygold butter.
I am really excited to be back and to continue on my journey to health!
