Mexican Chocolate Mousse
Silky and rich, this chocolate mousse takes only minutes to make and no cooking is required. However, to achieve the right texture, it should be refrigerated for at least one hour before serving, so make sure to add in that time. A hint of cinnamon and heat adds a Mexican twist to this creamy, nutritious dessert.

Grilled Peaches With Cardamom Cream
Grilled peaches are an easy summer dessert, which bring a lot of color and fresh flavor to the table. The coconut cream comes from refrigerating a can of full fat coconut milk. Once cold, the coconut cream will separate and move to the top of the can. Simply scoop the cream from the top and add to the grilled peaches. Honey and cardamom round out the flavors in this delicious dessert.

Easy Baked Apple Chips
This is a simple but very satisfying recipe. All you have to do is bake some thinly sliced apples to turn them into crispy, sweet chips. The baking time can vary, depending on the thickness of the apple slices and your oven. Mandolins are great for thinly and evenly slicing the apples. You can sprinkle the chips with your favorite spices, such as nutmeg, cinnamon, or even ginger. Store in an airtight container if there are any left over.

Sweet Potato Pancakes with Bacon
I’ve realized that one cannot go wrong with pancakes for breakfast… or for any other meal for that matter. There are so many different types: low- or high-carb, high in protein, fruity, chocolate, savory, nut butter, and plain but NEVER boring.
A blender is not absolutely necessary to make these but I prefer using one to ensure that the batter is smooth. Using a blender also adds extra air into the batter, which makes it nice and fluffy!
Instead of topping the pancakes with a sugary syrup, opt for a couple of strips of crumbled bacon to make yourself a savory and lower carb treat. Crunchy bacon is delicious compliment to the ...

Paleo pancakes are a wonderful way to start off a Saturday morning. Ripe bananas provide a delicious base for this recipe.
