Paleo Crock Pot Pulled Pork


Pulled Pork is one of my absolute favorite dishes, so I asked my wonderfully supportive husband to create this favorite but omit the usual brown sugar or Bar-B-Q sauce. This turned out even better than the sugary kind! Here's the magical Recipe:

Ingredients: 
3 Lbs Pork Shoulder
1 Cup Organic Vegetable Broth
2 Medium yellow onions
4 cloves garlic
1 tbsp Chili Powder
1/2 tbsp black pepper 
1 tbsp Salt (I prefer the pink salt) 
1/2 tsp Cumin
1/4 tsp Cinnamon
1 1/2 tbsp Maple Syrup 

Instructions:

Finely chop the onions and garlic and spread on bottom of crock pot. 
Rub Pork Shoulder with chili powder, cumin, salt and cinnamon. Place Pork on top of vegetables in crock pot. Add Vegetable broth and maple syrup. 

Cook for 8 hours on low heat

Take out pork and put in serving dish
Strain vegetables and add to dish, then add remaining liquid slowly while shredding pork until the desired moisture is achieved. 

Serve on top your favorite paleo bread or by itself and Enjoy!

Latte Blocks On-the-Go!


Fat-Burning Rocket Fuel Latte Blocks (low-carb, paleo + keto)


Rocket Fuel Latte Blocks #gelatin #collagen #lowcarb #paleo #keto #highfatTake your fat-burning Rocket Fuel Latte on-the-go with these travel-friendly coffee blocks. A Bulletproof coffee upgrade. Just add coffee or tea, shake, and enjoy.
Rocket Fuel Lattes are becoming a way of life for so many of the fat-fueled peeps in our community. I’m constantly working to create new flavor combinations, ways to enjoy them and compiling data from my one-on-one clients, to equip you with the tools you need to rock your Rocket Fuel Latte experience.
Not familiar with the Rocket Fuel Latte way? They’re basically an upgrade to the classic “butter coffee” or “Bulletproof coffee”, specifically created to regulate hormones and abolish cravings. The Rocket Fuel Latte came about after my bad experience drinking Bulletproof coffee.
With summer around the corner for many of us, it’s time we chatted about how we can take these powerful drinks on the road.

The protein in a Rocket Fuel Latte is just as important as the liquid itself (get the Rocket Fuel Latte ingredient guidelines here).
The protein source in many of my Rocket Fuel Latte recipes is collagen. Collagen is an animal-based protein derived from the hide of bovine. It’s the most abundant protein in the body, the key to all connective tissues, and the base infrastructure of the musculoskeletal system. We need it for movement, skin elasticity, healthy bones, flowing hair, the list goes on.
If you’re vegan, eating animal-sourced protein may not be okay with you. But I’ve worked with many vegans that have incorporated collagen into their eating style because of the superfood power of collagen. Your choice!

Up until this point, I’ve been quite liberal in my collagen recommendations, highlighting the options out there and opening it up to you to make the choice that best suits you. But today, I want to shine the light on one particular brand of collagen that’s caught my attention (and one that you’ve told me is your favorite, too), Vital Proteins.
After much taste testing, meeting having and product research, I feel best recommending and sharing Vital Proteins with you, my friends and family. Their price is fair, their product is high-quality, their message aligns with mine, and I love the taste.
