scotch eggs

Hey everyone,

 I'm a Utah Realtor and that is one of my passions, but my real passion is cooking. I love cooking I think about food I dream about food I just really love food.

Growing up I didn't get real food. My diet was bags and bags of hot cheetos and Dr pepper. My dad was mostly by himself and working so we fed ourselves in less Grandma had us over. Then we would wake up to hot chocolate and blueberry pancakes with all the bacon you could eat and any toppings you wanted. I love grandma's house she is what has made me such an incredible mother, wife, and cook.

 I think once I got married and had our first kid I began to cook more. Kids change the way we think about food. I started making more and more meals from scratch and only sometimes we would eat out. I was also over weight after having a kid. I did think " oh I'm pregnant and eating for two" whole people not me and a tiny baby. I was eating chili cheese fries chili cheese anything, whole orders of nachos, bug giant portions of food. I became 216 lbs at 5'6 that's pretty big.

 I discovered the Paleo diet and I love it even though it's a struggle to miss out on bread, French bread, sourdough bread, rolls, biscuits, etc. But you know you can make all of those without the guilt! I will share recipes and my training almost everyday. Yes training I workout almost everyday you can't just expect to lose weight and look good without toning too. I feel very empowered after working out. Even if it's only 20 minutes speed walking and lifting light weights.

This morning breakfast consisted of scotch egg with whipped butter and Himalayan salt.
Preheat oven 375°
One pound good sausage
5-6 hard boiled eggs
Whipped butter
Himalayan sea salt

Take the shells off the eggs. Next pat flat a portion of the raw sausage in your hand. Put one hard boiled egg on top of your sausage and wrap it around until you completely cover it place in a9x13 glass pan. Repeat until all your eggs are complete. Bake for 40 min. After they are done and you want to eat one cut one in half add whipped butter and a pinch of salt. Enjoy!!
