Cauliflower rice pudding may seem strange, but cauliflower is such a great substitute for rice that you won’t even notice the difference. If you’re not a fan of chia pudding, try this recipe for breakfast instead.

The tortillas in this recipe aren’t Paleo, but the shrimp itself is and really, that’s all you need. If you want to wrap this in something, we suggest trying the Spinach & Basil Egg Wrap recipe (no. 23)

8. Paleo S’Mores

Enjoy the grown-up version of your favorite childhood treat!

Ingredients: 10

Just because you’re Paleo doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy treats you used to as a child.

These paleo S’Mores are heavenly guilt-free desserts you can enjoy any time of the year!

9. Low-Carb Crispy Zucchini Chips

image via Health Starts In The Kitchen

Ingredients: 10

If you’re a snacker like I am, you know how difficult it is to find healthy snacks that don’t have added sugar in them and other gross ingredients (I mean, do falafel chips really need added sugar?!). These zucchini chips only require one main ingredient – zucchinis – and can be made with any spices and flavorings of your choosing.

10. Maple Walnut Ice Cream

Healthy fats without the fear of getting fat.

Ingredients: 7

This ice cream recipe uses coconut cream to get that rich, creamy texture we all know and love. While you can use any natural sweetener, this recipe calls for coconut nectar which is low in the glycemic index, contains less fructose than agave or cane sugar, and contains trace minerals and vitamins.

11. Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers

Psst… These poppers are stuffed with seasoned ground beef.

Ingredients: 7

A lot of people think that following a specific dietary regimen is restricting when, in fact, it allows you to eat so much more! The best part is the creativity involved in recreating old favorites with a new spin. This recipe is a perfect example of an old-school favorite that’s been made over to be a healthy, delicious and fun treat.

12. Paleo Fried Pickles

Restaurant fried pickles have nothing on these!

15. Paleo Jalapeno Cornbread

One of the best cornbread recipes we’ve ever tried! You won’t even believe it’s paleo.

Cornbread should have its own song. In fact, cornbread should be the official bread of some state – it doesn’t matter at this point as long as someone recognizes the beauty and wonder that is cornbread. This recipe is Paleo, gluten-free and sexified with bits of jalapeno that give this recipe that extra kick.

I don’t (order take out), but I wish I could. Instead, I look for easy recipes I can put together and enjoy in less than 30 minutes. This recipe is one of those and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

Mmm, scones. I still remember the first time I had a scone. I was working at a bakery and tried a raisin scone for the first time and immediately fell in love with how buttery it was. This scone is just as buttery, but good news, food-lovers, contains less than twice the fat! Which is great because who only ever eats just ONE scone?

26. Cloud Breakfast Eggs
