Ham and Sweet Potato Soup (Paleo)

Paleo Beef Stroganoff
Beef Stroganoff was one of my go-to dishes when I FINALLY learned to cook a few years back. First it was over egg noodles, then transitioned over to serving it atop gluten free noodles. There were “cream of” canned soups and all sorts of schtuff that I avoid like the plague now. So when I…

These were so incredibly easy to throw together and there was no “downtime” waiting for the flavors to be absorbed. Just combine, make your patties, and get to grillin’ y’all! 1 pound…
Cilantro Garlic Mahi Mahi
