Whole30 Approved German Potato Salad

It has been so long since my last post!  Even longer since I've posted a recipe.  I got pretty carried away doing the Whole30.  I wasn't really making any "recipes" so I took a little break from blogging.  I would just roast a lot of vegetables and meats and eat things that weren't very pretty.  So why bother posting?  But here is my first Whole30 approved recipe!  I know German Potato Salad doesn't sound like something that would be approved to eat on Whole30, but it is!  It's probably not the healthiest choice because of the bacon, but nonetheless it is indeed Whole30 compliant.  This is a great recipe that will make you feel like you aren't on a diet.  Even though Whole30 isn't a "diet"!!  Here's how to make it:

 

Linguine with Clams, Mussels and Bacon

Sometimes you just get a craving for some really good pasta that's super flavorful but not too complicated to make.  Here's the recipe for my last craving: 

Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Maple Syrup and Bacon

This recipe was kind of an accident.  I had originally planned to just roast some brussel sprouts with bacon.  Half way through cooking, I started to smell maple syrup.  Huh?  I then realized that I had used the maple flavored bacon that Drew bought himself.  Oops!  They were already half way done so there was no going back, so I just decided to roll with it.  They turned out great.  Sweet and salty, which is one of my favorite combinations.   I had never thought that maple syrup and brussel sprouts could ever go well together.  You learn something new every day!  Brussel sprouts are so much more than that yucky vegetable your parents used to make you eat when you were younger.  They really can be delicious and I'm on a mission to prove it!
