Notice anything different around here?

Seasonal Cravings got a facelift and I love it.  I was so lucky to find Julie from Deluxe Designs to help me create my new look.  She is so talented and has some really great ideas about how to stand out in a sea of food blogs.  She was so patient with me…we exchanged as least 8,629 emails about this and she never once complained. Thanks, Julie!  She created a mock site for me so we could go through some changes and see how I liked them.  It’s almost impossible to do a site redesign without seeing them in real time.

We are still tweaking a few minor changes but all in all, I love it and I’m so thankful to Julie for all her hard work.  She has created some beautiful sites so be sure to check her out at Deluxe Designs.

What do you think?  Do you like my new look?

Paleo Quiche Cups with sweet potatoes and spinach

I feel like I have a great start ticking off my to-dos of 2017.  I have been eating healthy and meal planning like a pro – yes, I know it’s only been a few days but let me celebrate my small victories.  These Paleo Quiche Cups have been a godsend for quick healthy breakfasts on the go.  Hubby takes them in the car with him on his long commute to DC.

I filled these with diced sweet potatoes, onions, bacon and spinach.  Sauteing these babies together means they get covered in bacon grease and have so much flavor.   My Paleo Quiche Cups are cheese free but feel free to add some parmesan or cheddar but just remember they won’t be paleo anymore.

I also love these Bacon and Egg Cups for a portable paleo, whole30 approved breakfast.

These Paleo Quiche Cups are…

  • high protein
  • low carb
  • gluten free
  • paleo and whole30 approved (use whole30 approved bacon with no added sugar or nitrates)
  • portable
  • flavorful with all that bacon
  • kid-friendly

Give them a try and let me know what you think. Snap a photo and tag me at #seasonal_cravings on Instagram.

Be sure to let me know what you think of my new look in the comments.  I’d love to hear what you think!

      I haven’t tried to freeze them yet bc we eat them so fast but let me know how it goes! It might make them soft when they are reheated from frozen. Thanks for your question.

    Love this new recipe. It will fit in perfectly to my Weight Watcher’s plan! I bet they are very low in points.

    I love the new look Karen!! You both did an awesome job! Nice and easy to navigate.
    I also love these little breakfast cups. Tom and I are trying to work on cutting some carbs from our diet this year. These look filling where we wouldn’t miss a piece of toast alongside. Love the addition of the sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes too!
