Autoimmune Paleo Savory Breakfast Cookies (aka flattened biscuits)
Sometimes kitchen failures turn into great recipes. I’ve tried and tried to come up with an egg-free, autoimmune paleo biscuit, but, no matter what I do, they don’t rise. They’ve all come out flat as pancakes! Thus, Savory Breakfast Cookies were born. Even though they don’t look like a biscuit, they taste like one, and they make the perfect AIP savory breakfast bread!
Nightshade-free Shepherd’s Pie
Cauliflower is a wonderful and versatile vegetable, but I was left disappointed when I tried using it as the mashed topping for shepherd’s pie. This recipe utilizes tropical starchy roots as the mashed potato replacement in a nourishing, nightshade- and dairy-free version of the classic dish.

Green Plantain Pancakes (autoimmune paleo, egg-free)
This recipe is for egg-free green plantain pancakes that you can eat while on the autoimmune paleo protocol. It is an adaptation of my plantain flour pancake recipe from last year. I’ve been making these at least once a week since starting the AIP — my husband and I both love them! And, for the egg-free variation, the texture is better with pureed fresh green plantains vs. plantain flour. You will definitely enjoy this recipe!
Nightshade-free Unrolled Cabbage Rolls
Want cabbage rolls, but don’t want to spend the time wrapping them up? This is a recipe for unrolled cabbage rolls that you can make in the oven or slow cooker. It also uses my nightshade-free “no-mato” sauce that’s suitable for the autoimmune paleo protocol. If you’re not on the AIP and want to use a tomato sauce instead, there’s an option for that as well.
The Best “No-Mato” Sauce – Autoimmune Paleo Marinara
Beets, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, herbs, olives, and lemon juice work magic in this recipe to make a nightshade-free marinara sauce — also known as a “No-Mato” sauce. Perfect if you are following the autoimmune paleo protocol or if you are sensitive to tomatoes.
